Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone has been enjoying their week thus far - I know I'm happy it's a little less cold than it has been... but it's Connecticut, so I know not to get too comfy with the weather!

Don't forget - Trade in & Trade Up ends 1/31! Don't miss the chance to get a free appraisal on your used items and trade towards something new. Even if you're not sure what you want yet, you can get a gift card to use later! And I know I said it last week but I will keep saying it... submit your assault weapon certificate applications! The deadline is 12AM on May 1, 2024 and that is fast approaching. If you have any questions regarding it, please don't hesitate to reach out. We'd love to help you!

Time for more introductions! Last week I introduced myself and gave a little intro to my boyfriend; I'm sure most of you have either already seen or met him because he's always on the floor, but this week we're introducing Tyler! He's been at Swamp Yankee Arms for just about 3 years and serves as our Sales Manager and in house welder. Tyler is our resident 1911 fan and loves everything antique military. Outside of work, he's usually heading out to the range, playing video games, or working on one of his many auto projects. Fun fact about Tyler? He loves reading! Never would've guessed, huh?

Now that you're able to put a face to the name and know a little about him, please feel free to say Hi next time you stop in! Next week, I'll be sure to introduce another one of our amazing staff members so you can start putting all our names to our faces!

Don't forget to check out our subreddit, r/SwampYankeeArms for daily updates on the shop! Tom is also on r/CTguns every Tuesday with "Ask an LGS Anything". As usual, be sure to check out swampyankeearms.com or give us a call at 860-591-1036. We are always happy to help!

Hope to see you in the shop soon and have a great week!
