On July 1, Mumme’s will hold a grand opening of its expanded Gun Room at its Hondo location.
“We’ve increased our footprint from 600 square feet to 4,400 square feet,” said Wildlife Specialist Lance Cote. “Our inventory has been expanded to match.”
In 2013, the Mumme’s Gun Room opened as part of the large facility that began selling feed in 1928, eventually becoming the state’s, and maybe the country’s, largest producer of deer corn.
“I got here in 2008 and said I’d never seen a feed store without ammunition,” Cote said. “Later, we got our FFL (Federal Firearms License) and opened the gun room.”

The gun room may have been small, but held plenty of inventory.
“We had stuff all the way to the roof — every inch had something on it,” Cote said.
“It was amazing how the new place filled up so quickly.”
The grand opening will take place all day, from 9 a.m.- 7 p.m., and will have vendor and firearm industry representatives, plenty of giveaways, free food, entertainment and more.
