Delco shooting supply - need a review

Wish I saw this earlier and I would have stopped by. I posted a thread in the past about a gun store on this same street that closed after the owner passed away.

Within a couple miles radius of Prospect Park three gun stores have closed that I remember. Any new place is welcome to me and I hope they do well.

I really think they will...

they've got the best prices I've found so far..better than king's and cheaper than having stuff shipped from midways..I used to like Miller's in Linwood, but his prices got outrageous.

Thanks for the report. Only CCI and Winchester primers? No Federal? I was hoping to pick up another sleeve of small pistol.

I'll have to get in there soon. A new gun shop in the area should be encouraged to stay around.

I only saw CCI and Winchester..that's not to say they don't have others coming in on a shipment or in the back..ask..maybe he can get them for you at a cheaper cost.

Great I am going to swing by one day. I live right around the block. Save's me a trip to targetmaster.

I'm not a reloader and have lots of ammo. Can anyone who stops in post a few comments on their hadgun selection.

Stopped in after work on Friday. Best parking is on 11th avenue by the Post Office and then walk across 420 at the light.

It's a nice little shop with potential. They are a bit light on inventory right now. A dozen handguns in the case. Mostly CC types, but there were a couple full size autos. I glanced over them, but didn't pay a lot of attention. A fair selection of commercial cast bullets and a smaller collection of plated offerings. Primers were CCI and Winchester as reported by andrewjs18. They had a few pounds of Alliant powder on display as well.

I talked with the owner and his son for a half an hour or so. He wants to expand and was very interested in what I load and the components I use. He seemed particularly interested in different powders. He stated that he wanted Federal primers same as everyone else, but he couldn't find any. Also said that he was mostly a handgun guy, but he would be adding some rifles to the inventory.

I bought 1000 CCI small pistol and wished him well. I'll be stopping back now and again to keep an eye on the place. Hopefully he'll make a good run of it and become a great local resource.

Oh, and I found a one ounce wheel weight on 11th while walking back to my car. Almost 3 good .38 bullets in that.
