Re: Gettysburg Gun Show
I'm all for supporting local businesses, but the last time I stopped by Stubby Gear it was $15-$17 for a box of 9mm range ammo, believe it or not some of us can't afford to pay that much just to support a local business, when Walmart or some guy at a gunshow has it for $10-$12 a box. Last year I could barely find any 9mm ammo, so I stocked up on WWB at walmart whenever they got some in, some gun shops were buying ammo from walmart and reselling it for almost twice the price, sorry but I can't afford to pay twice as much for the same ammo, the only reason I stopped buying at walmart is because with their price increase I can now get better ammo cheaper elsewhere.
As for Stubby Gear, I think the reason the store closed is because of the weird hours and it being pretty difficult to get a hold of him. There was one set of hours on the door, a different set on the answering machine message, and if there was a show that weekend the store was only open 2-3 days a week. I know several people that wanted to check the store out, but they kept stopping by when they were supposed to be open and nobody was there.
I had a gun shipped there for him to do the transfer, and the gun arrived a day later than it was supposed to, so it got there right before a show, it was a week after the gun was supposed to arrive before I managed to find out that they did indeed have it, due to them being closed for 5-6 days and the voicemail being full the whole time. They were pretty friendly and the experience was pleasant when I finally went to pick the gun up, but from other posts on here it seems to be pretty common for it to take a while to get in contact with the owner.
