Thursday, March 19^th marks the official start of spring in 2020. Typically this correlates with the vernal equinox, which is the moment the Sun crosses the celestial equator. While this may be what meteorologists and calendars tell you, whether or not it will actually feel like spring in Minnesota on this date is yet to be seen. But one thing is certain – winter is on its way out.

At Metro Pawn & Gun, we are just as excited about spring as you are. It’s time to pack away the parkas and winter boots, roll the snow blower to the back of the garage and swap those winter tires for summer driving. Here’s to hoping we don’t get another blizzard any time soon!

 As warmer weather approaches, it’s a great opportunity to plan ahead. Once free of the limitations that winter brings, we can start to enjoy more outdoor activities. Are you ready for picnics, camping, hiking or boating? Might it be time to do some landscaping or gardening? Perhaps being able to roll down your car windows as you drive may provide the inspiration to upgrade your automotive entertainment. Trap, archery and other shooting sports get into full swing as we leave winter behind. And who wouldn’t enjoy 18 holes on a beautiful, green golf course?

Spring cleaning can also provide some needed cash to jump-start spring and summer. Clean off that dusty old stereo or wipe down that old .22 plinker and stop by our shop. Turn things that have fallen into disuse into money in your pocket, or something else that you need. We’ll work with you if you’re selling or buying – that is what we do!

While we offer something for everyone and for every season, there are obviously more things to do when you’re not snowed in. From firearms to golf clubs and from lawn mowers to car audio – we invite you to stop by and get inspired. We also offer cash loans and purchase items outright, so it’s always easy to upgrade to your current pursuits by bringing in what you don’t want or need any more. Whether it’s a newer, better compound bow that you’ve been eyeing or some fancy power tools for the new deck you’ve been waiting to build, Metro Pawn & Gun is the best place to find what you need.
