There's something about mixing the seriousness of firearms with a cutesy pun that we find irresistibly charming, and nobody in metro Detroit does it as well as the family-owned Michi-Gun. Founded by husband and wife Robert and Shirley Barch in 1975 (it was Shirley, in fact, who came up with the name), Michi-Gun offers the sort of customer service that you can only get at a mom and pop shop. It's no surprise, then, that this St. Clair Shores store draws customers from all across Michigan.
