Recommend any good gun shops in East Texas???

Lufkin has a good one: Bill's Gun Trader, if you go out that way.

I dont live in texas, never been there. However, for some reason I like reading stories of good and bad experiences in gunshops, so I will give a bump in hopes of some entertainment.

If you get as far north as Terrell, I suggest Koning's Gun Shop.
Great place just to stop in and look around. They don't make gun shops
like that anymore.

Chaddicks in Terrell is also very good, old double barrels extremely high grade stuff. I have probably spent more there than anywhere else. He is downtown, and doors are always locked so no casual walk in traffic. I always call and make an appointment so they will know that I am coming. The last time I was left to fondle a couple of Parker doubles that had no price tags, later I saw them on his internet site for $135,000 and 125,000 ea plus six very high grade engraved L.C. Smith's that were in the lower mid 5 figure range each.

Noonday gun trader in Tyler, as well as High Noon Mercantile, both on Hwy 155 S.and then Mac's gun shop downtown on E. Elm. Gander Mountain has an excellent selection but prices are a bit on the high side.

The best shops in Texarkana are the mom and pop shops. We have a Gander Mountain but their prices are absurd. If you pass through stop at P&J Guns on New Boston Road and Tri-State Pawn on State Line. The first is a family owned shop with great prices and the latter is a pawn shop that also stocks hundreds of new guns. They have decent prices and I've always been able to talk them into lowering them down to great...also they give top dollar for trade ins.

Buffalo Sporting Goods in Buffalo - owner is very friendly.

If you get up to Tyler, Noonday Gun Trader is a very nice shop. Prices are lower than most.
