LIMA, Ohio — The fall hunting seasons are upon us, and for some people, it’s always diamond season.

Firearms and diamonds are together in an interesting pairing this week as Dunkin’s Diamonds offers a free gun with a jewelry purchase of at least $2,499.

The store, at Cable and Elida roads, is offering a voucher good for select firearms at Artillery Shed. The promotion lasts until Sunday.

Giving vouchers for customers to redeem at Artillery Shed allows all parties involved to follow the laws governing the purchase and sale of firearms, according to a news release from Dunkin’s.

Artillery Shed Operations Manager Josh Bayer is excited to partner with Dunkin’s Diamonds.

“We are proud to support our troops active and veterans, local law enforcement and our armed citizens,” Bayer said. “We are happy to partner with Dunkin’s Diamonds and support another business in our community.”

When customers make a purchase of $2,499 or more they will receive a voucher good for select firearms. Bigger spenders who make a purchase of $3,499 or more will receive a larger voucher for select firearms.
