I am not sure if this is the appropriate place to ask this or if there is already and thread devoted to this but here goes.  If this has been covered in detail already, I apologize.

I own a small gun shop in Albion, WA and deal with customers daily.  Many have asked about Appleseed just since getting my Orange hat in Medical Lake just a couple of weeks ago.  I have a great opportunity to really spread the message about Liberty, our heritage and marksmanship but is there a card that I can get printed or anything to hand out to people I come into contact with?

If there is not, is there a standard acceptance or guide as to what I can have put on material that I have printed?

Talk to your Shoot Boss for your next shoot. He can get delivered in the Shoot Box a supply of promotional material, including tri-fold brochures in a plastic stand that you can put on your counter. I've given them to all the gun/archery shops in my area.

I've never received the plastic stand for the tri-folds.  How do I get some of those?

I don't know. I asked for a box of promo material in a box about a month ago and the trifolds were in plastic stands. I didn't make any special request.

MTRisner,

I'm the promo guy for the NW Region. I can get you some materials. I'll PM you and we can discuss it over the phone.

Sounds good ShadowMan.  Look forward to talking with you.  Thanks.

Next time you order a box put, "Some of those plastic trifold holder thingies" and Lawrence will hook it up.

Or, if you're in a hurry and live near a Staples/Office Depot/Walmart they're about $1.29 each.
