Ryan Harriman has been building, repairing and selling firearms for over 10 years as part of South Frontenac Rentals, the business he runs with his wife Marcie on Colebrooke Road, 1.6 kilometres west of Harrowsmith.

The firearms business has never been promoted, but it has expanded over the years through word of mouth.

“Finally, last year I decided I’d better pay some attention to it since it keeps growing anyway,” Ryan said of the firearms part of the business.

So, last winter, the Harrimans built an addition to their shop, which is located in the expanded garage at their business/home property.

The new gun shop includes a full display of guns, ammunition, and accessories, and it will be featured this Saturday at an Open House from 8-4 pm.

In addition to door prizes and draws and a free BBQ between 11 am and 2 pm, it will be an opportunity for customers to get a good look at the product lines that South Frontenac Rentals is now carrying.

These include Remington, Savage Arms, NEF, Ruger, Mossberg, Smith & Wessen, and many more.

With duck hunting season coming up in a couple of weeks, and deer hunting less than two months away, the Open House provides an opportunity for hunters to see all the gear and services that South Frontenac Rentals is now able to offer out of its new showroom and shop.

Ryan and Marcie have been working hard to get the shop fully stocked and ready for the Open House and the season ahead. Whether it is just some ammunition that is required, or bait, a new rifle, a repair, South Frontenac Rentals is ready to serve the needs of the hunting public.

For further information about the Open House, or for equipment rentals including log splitters, mini- excavators, compact backhoes, tractors, lawn and garden equipment, scaffolding and more, call 613-372-2662.
