    Be forewarned this is the world's ugliest gun shop. It has very odd hours of business, and you must drive off road to get to it, but it is one of the best gun stores to work with. The gentle who owns the store is a farmer, who basically sells guns from a dilapidated barn in the middle of his farm for not much over the dealer price. I herd he's also an excellent gunsmith.

    From my own person experience I have to say the owner (Mike, I believe) is out there for the people. I explained I wanted to do a transfer, and he basically said it will cost 5$. That's all I paid for a gun transfer.
    The guy appears to be charging people nothing more than dealer cost.

    Hit or Miss is one of the best kept secrets around here, just when you think you are totally on the wrong pot-hole filled, dirt road you're there. And Mike is a great guy too, and he opens early on a Saturday.

    Let me try this again as my first reply didn't take.

    Across from Messicks and before the Dollar General there is a road (don't know the name) turn back there go about 3/4 mile. Look for a dead tree on left hand side with "Hit or Miss" sign on it take that left onto the dirt road, go past farm and the road ends at a block building by another farmhouse, that's it. Are you telling me you are from Halifax and don't know where Hit or Miss is?? He has a small inventory but can order most anything.

    I haven't been there but I got curious and found it virtually.

    Go north on Peters Mountain Road in Halifax, PA. Pass the Dollar General and make a right on Hoffman Rd. across from Sweigard. Make a left on Brown Rd where the sign is posted.

    I'll seek it out in person, thanks.

    Met a member there for a deal today. You would NEVER find the place by accident. And while it was small and dated (see the OP), the owner was very nice and helpful. Not a huge inventory but seemed like he could get just about anything in for you, or transfer for you at minimum.

    Took all the determination I had to not leave with a 44 mag he had for a very good price. I'll definitely try to swing by when I'm in the area
