OutdoorHub 02.18.13
On this week’s Gun Guy Radio Jake Challand interviewed Pete Brownell the CEO of Brownells, a third generation family business. Jake started the conversation off with asking Pete about his favorite guns and shooting sports. Then they moved onto the amazing story of how his Grandfather, Bob Brownell, founded the company over 70 years ago. Through perseverance and common sense business practices, Brownells has become a true American success story. They have kept that success going by moving full speed into the internet/Amazon age. Pete walks the listeners through the story of how Brownell’s made the transition from a classic catalog to an online superstore. Brownells now offers a level of online service that rivals the very best of all companies out there.
In addition to discussing company history, Challand asks Mr. Brownell some tough questions about the current shortages in the Firearms industry. Pete gives us some hope for the future supply of guns, parts and accessories. Continuing with the Brownells/Gun Guy Radio weekly giveaway, Zack, Mike and Jake announce the winner of the Brownell’s Upper Receiver Action Block set.
