Metro Shooting Supplies

A police officer for 23 years and a competitor in the international police olympics, Steven King dreamed of owning a shooting range where could teach people how to responsibly operate a firearm. Even after launching Metro Shooting Supplies, he still had more know-how to share than he could dispense in his training classes. His wife, a television reporter, suggested he host a radio show. Intrigued, he pitched the idea to several stations until KTRS gave him a one-hour slot on Sunday nights. Four years later, he and his cohost wife continue entertaining listeners by sharing industry news, explaining gun laws, and breathing heavily during awkward pauses. The station even extended them to 90 minutes.

This passion for educating people extends throughout Steven's team, a crew of instructors that upholds NRA standards, whether training students in basic handguns or police and security officers for qualification. Steven's favorite part of his job is working with beginner shooters, specifically the moment when they realize that they possess all the instincts necessary to safely handle a gun. To help them, he uses the same instructional methods that he used to train his fellow police officers, which he learned at the FBI's firearm academy. Metro Shooting Supplies' training resources include rifle-rated ranges at both locations, and the Bridgeton range's superb construction earned it a five-star rating from the National Shooting Sports Foundation. Ballistic-tested surfaces, such as steel-lined walls, surround guests in bulletproof protection. A HEPA-filtration system exchanges the air every 45 seconds, channeling a fresh breeze from outside. The range also features a bay of five handicapped-accessible stalls, built with oversized booths to accommodate both a wheelchair and an instructor. Inspired by the Wounded Warrior Project and his employees—many former law-enforcement and military servicemen—Steven built this bay as a patriotic expression to disabled guests who wish to continue or explore shooting sports.

In addition to the public ranges and classes, both of Metro Shooting Supply's locations extend to pro shops, where the staff waits on visitors from beginners to active-duty police officers. Gunsmiths also offer the services in firearm customization, restoration, and maintenance.

The Groupon Guide to: Airplane-Seat Pockets

Most air-travel anxiety stems from not knowing where the plane is going, which local news personalities might be on the flight, and what exactly will be in the seat pocket in front of you. For now, modern science is only able to anticipate the last part:

  • Pamphlet detailing what to do if everyone on the plane turns into an expressionless cartoon

  • Copy of SkyMall dog-eared to the page with the slippers that scream when you step in something wet

  • Action figure of captain currently flying the plane

  • Discarded packet of Edible Jet-ibles™—"The Crackers That Break Apart Just Like a Real Boeing 737"

  • Plastic bag (for your secrets)

Why aren’t there more flight-attendant action figures?
