Would love to apply, but the commute from Spring Hill would be too much.:stunned:

Would be an interesting job. Don't know if I could keep myself from molesting the firearms at every opportunity though.

We're looking for people who are available immediately, who have experience with firearms.

So far most of the people who have turned in applications don't seem to have much experience with firearms.

We are looking for people to fill all levels from counter sales to management.

Up until last month, I'd been with Coal Creek Armory about 5 years total, since its founding, so I'm quite familiar with it. It's really a unique place to work, and never boring. There's always something exciting happening, every minute. No shortage of interesting individuals - not like any other place you've ever worked, I'll guarantee it. Hope that helps!

Weren't you like the Vice President?

Yes, Trevor was the Vice President of Coal Creek Armory, Inc.

And, yes we are still looking for viable applicants for open positions. Mainly looking for full-time (30+ hrs a week) employees.

Most of the applicants so far have zero firearm experience, so anyone with a knowledge of firearms, who might be looking for a rewarding position with a growing company would be encouraged to come in and apply today!


Benefits:

Health insurance
Life insurance
Dental insurance
Employee purchase plan
Flexible hours
Competitive pay

And more to the point, CCA, Inc. is a corporation owned solely by one person. There are no silly power struggles or ego games being played between the partners since there are none.

There's a quick fix to that. People move for their job everyday.

Could you define "experience"? I'm not just asking, I am slightly interested in this, but only in a part time capacity for the time being if you're hiring for that.

Could you define "experience"?

Certainly!

Do you know what a gun is?

Have you handled a gun?

Have you fired a gun?

Do you know where to keep a gun pointed?

Do you know what all guns are?

Do you know what a trigger is?

Do you know what a safety is?

Do you know how a gun works?

Things like that. You don't have to be an "operator" but knowing the four rules of firearm safety is a must.

A friend of mine applied yesterday. He must be WAY over qualified.

Salary or Hourly?

We're looking for both right now.

Most likely start out hourly and see how that goes.

Bah! If I had bothered logging in more than once a week, I might have seen this and taken advantage of it. As it is, some laboratory or something has snatched me up as a labrat or somesuch... Hey, if I get irradiated, I might get mutant powers, right?
