August Tactical Rifle Match

Don’t forget…  This Saturday, August 30, 2008, at Steel City Shooting Sports Association.  You should plan to be at the match early as the safety meeting and registration is at 8:00 and shoot begins at 9:00.  If you want to sign up to shoot with the BGM make sure you get your name to us so that we can block register so that we can all be in the same squad.  We look to have a full squad this weekend.

Rant: Where is the Gun Marketing

Sign up for BGM E-mail Updates


We have all heard the stories about the internet making people millions. Well, why hasn’t the shooting industry joined in?

  1. Gun people aren’t tech savvy?
  2. They can’t use computers?
  3. They are are unorganized?
  4. Maybe all of the above?

We happen to think not. Someone hasn’t come along and entered into the heavy competition for marketing over the internet. Which by our calculations is a bad thing. For instance… If you are looking for a “NHO Magwell” on Google, or Yahoo you couldn’t find one. So if somebody spent a little time and learned to market gun products on the internet it would make life easier for the shooters doing the shopping and make somebody lots of money.

There sites like bizrate.com or yahoo shopping. But what do those companies know about guns and gun accessories? Nothing. What if somebody came along and made a Amazon style website? That would revolutionize the weapon industry. Lots of people have a website but they are so poor it is hard even for advanced internet users. Maybe a single company with the capital and the right internet marketing direction will come along soon. If you get some ideas from this post give us credit for the inspiration. If it is good enough we might even promote it on our site.

As a question what do you think of the internet gun shopping business? What are your favorite sites? What type of things do you buy from them?

Though we are not marketing or selling anything as a team… We use the services of Birmingham SEO Service, to help promote shooting through search engines. We don’t pay for anything when it comes to the website. The owner of the Search Engine Optimization Service is a member of our team and provides basic design, layout, SEO, and all around technical know how for our website. So if you want to discuss ideas them about improving your online gun business contact Birmingham SEO and tell them you saw this article and receive a very willing and helpful person.
