Gun Shop

[John Fox]

I'm looking for a gun shop around the Lancaster area. I belive it's somewhere close to route 741. Can someone name it for me? I also think it's east of Nickel Mines.

The Village Arms, in GAP.
It is near where Route 30 and 41 meet, and sort of near where Rt. 741 and 41 meet.

If you know where the diner is in GAP, you're almost at the gun shop.

If you know where the "town clock" is in GAP, you're almost there, look across the street.

Thanks very much! That's the place I was looking for and hope to be there next week.

I think they moved so make sure you call and get the new address.

Drove into that area and found the shop. It was closed and the store was for lease. Enjoyed the ride and then went to a gunshop in New Holland to buy bullets.
Thanks all for your help.

uh, no, you must have missed it

Perhaps they moved to a new location in the last few months and you went to the old location? I don't know, maybe they just closed, like literally in the last few days, so maybe you are absolutely correct, but I was just in there to buy bullets myself a two weeks ago. When the Internet fails, we have to revert back to the dreaded old, low tech days of yesteryear and use "technology" developed more than 100 years ago -- the telephone. Call them up, ask how to get to their store, ask if they're still in business, etc


Their store hours:
Monday: 12:00 noon - 9:00PM
Tuesday thru Friday: 10:00AM - 9:00PM
Saturday: 9:00AM - 4:00PM
Sunday: Closed

I went to the address listed on their web site and it was as I said. I called them multiple times and only got their machine. These calls were on separate days and during the times their machine said they were open. If you know something beyond this, let me know, please.

I believe they changed their hours for winter;the new shop is if you make a left at the light on 741 head North on 41 it will be immediately on your left or if your coming up the hill on 41 from 30 its right before the light
