    I recently visited Urban Preppers on Hickory in River Ridge... I could not have been more happy with everything... service, pricing, etc. Now, this place has a number of "prepper" items... FAST helmets, fatigues, tents, dried food, 55 gallon drum water treatment systems, hats, gloves, I mean a LOT of stuff crammed into that small store, yet its very spacious.

    I will say that before you head anywhere for MagPul items, VISIT this place first!! I had him make a custom IWB Kydex holster for my Glock 26 and a spare magazine. Quick turnaround, great pricing... VERY good quality and seriously amazing work WHILE YOU WAIT!

    More people should know about the place. I just happened to be driving by and stopped in.

    Going to have to take a look next time I'm free. Do they also sell guns?

    Dropped in today. Guy behind the counter seemed cool, prices are pretty good for brick and mortar. Think I'm going to have him make me some mag holders out of kydex, his work is clean from what I saw.
    Lots of good stuff on hand.

    I stopped in there today, Nice place. The owner seems to be a cool dude. I will be back, Picked up a boo boo kit and a light. If you get a moment I'd recommend you stop in and make a purchase, help the guy out.

    Anyone know if this place is still open? I believe they closed their doors early last year, but can anyone confirm or deny that?
