Berks-Lebanon area

**Ozzilla** · December 15th, 2011, 11:01 PM

I am looking for a good gun shop somewhere in the Berks-Lebanon county areas. Mostly to purchase handguns and supplies, but also the occasional military style rifle. Looking for a place that has good service, pricing, and knowledge. I know that may be asking for a lot.

Any feedback would greatly be appreciated.

I have tried the following shops w/o getting satisfaction:

CABELA'S: Prices too high, wait too long; they used to easily match prices and give the coupon discounts on firearms, now it is much harder to get them to discount the overpriced guns.

THE HANDGUNNER: Several BAD experiences for me and some friends ranging from poor smithing to lying about ordering parts. Never thought Randy was pleasant to deal with. Other guys good.

RICHLAND SHOOTER'S SUPPLY: Used to be "my shop" in the 1990's. But after several post Obama election visits, I have found the service is now terrible. Maybe partially due to owners health problems. Prices still good.

GUN TRADERS: Owner is very grumpy old man who is difficult to deal with if you catch him on a "bad" day. Younger guy (son?) OK.

SHYDA'S: A few of the employees are total A-holes including one grumpy old guy that thinks you should only be there to buy a Glock. Get the wrong guy and service is the worst I have ever dealt with at a gun shop. Some sales people OK. Prices and selection are decent.

Kerpers Gun Shop in Bowmansville, She just moved to a new store on main street.
Nice shop and Cheryl is a good person to do business with.
I was just there today and was impressed with the new shop.
