Maryland, VA, and PA. Gun Shops - Where and Why?

[Slimjim]

Brownstone trading company - Westminster MD. Nice guy, ive known him for awhile, bought my nagant there and everything, if you need black powder stuff in the state of md hes your guy.

Reddings hardware - Gettysburg PA. Nice shop, good selection kinda high.

Taylors trading post - biglerville PA, Great selection, some rare stuff, kinda high prices for most stuff, cant beat his selection on reloading and cleaning supplies.

Walters gun chamber - Parkville MD. Great guys to deal with, just bought a gun from them at the timonium show, they have a great selection (Atleast what they had at their show) And they are nice and helpful guys.

Surplus City that SodaPop mentioned is in Feasterville PA, on Bustleton Pike (Rt. 532). Over the years, I've found several good deals there: a new SAR-1, and a couple of police trade-in shotguns.

Tanner's in Jamison PA on Old York Road (Rt. 263) is another good place. Great selection, low prices, and practically in my backyard.

Others I would recommend:

Archery & Gun Outfitters, Rt. 309, Montgomeryville PA
Classic Pistol, Industrial Blvd., Southampton PA
Target World, Rt. 202 and County Line Rd., Chalfont PA

Re: Surplus City. It's in Feasterville, PA on Bustleton Pike. From US1 go west on Street Road and turn left onto Bustleton. About one-half mile south on right.

The store is small and not well stocked with accessories, but usually has something interesting. One of the owners travels a lot and brings back stuff like old police guns. Two weeks ago had a pre-war Nambu with holster.

Just to add some more insight as to my choice of Tanners....
Stopped in last night and left with a used but unfired Mossberg 590 Milspec for $175.
Man I love that place!!!

Also dropped a deposit on a very low round count Glock 30 that sold for $399 without a mark on it externally and no more markings on the barrel than you'd expect to see from the factory test firings.

I've been to the Christian Soildier numerous times, however, I cannot seem to get there when they are open! They are right down the road from where I work.

I bought my last gun (Kimber Pro Carry SS) from Walters on Harford Rd. Nice easy clean transaction.

Yeah Christian Soldier has odd hours. The owner is a full time Paramedic/EMT and I think he just got out of the National Guard so maybe the hours will get a little more consistent
