Unless you like watching <i>COPS</i> here in K-town. :D You should see the gag ad (which, unfortunately, we <i>didn't</i> use.) The tagline was "Coal Creek Armory: Let us help you seriously f___ up somebody's day." ;) “Not every day you see a TeeVee commercial for a gun store.”

Gun ads can't be hilariously surreal without looking criminally insane or anti-gun in this enlightened 21st century? What the hell.

No TV ads, but they do run them on the radio broadcasts (which are pretty much as highly watched as the TV broadcast).

I guess they're all parts of greater SLC. I assume the rock is a Wild West historical reference? There have been several ads on the Spokane, WA TV stations over the years for a gun store and range in Spokane. "Come in and see how much fun a gun can be..." (Showing a guy emptying a hi-cap pistol at a mock-up car as he advances on it) Good stuff.
