Default PAFOA Gun Shop Map

Taking RocketFoot's idea and extending it to gun shops. Just like the member map, this map is open for collaboration, so if you have a google account, log in and add your favorite shops!

Mods: can we sticky this?

I think this is a Great Idea...

Has anyone ever approached a Shop for sponsorship or discounts for members?

Why not just agree on a specific icon and combine this info with the existing map? Some members have done this for ranges as well.

Actually, google can do this for you. You can click the checkboxes beside the map names to display multiple ones at once.

I think it's a good idea to keep them separate because with all the members we have the map would get very crowded. If they are separate maps, you can pick and choose which info you want to view. We should do the same for ranges as well.

Are you in the 'My Maps' tab? I can definitely "check" multiple maps.

I can definitely answer that in the affirmative. ("Yes" was too short)

*edited to add
I got it to work, but then had problems again....seems to be intermittent. I've found the 'My Maps' feature to be a bit buggy still.
