Allegheny Arms and Gun Works

[Justin///M]

Looks like Josh is opening a gun shop. Website not really update, but I've read that the store is nearly ready for opening.

Route 88/Library Road in bethel park.

Nice. This is minutes from me.

Went today for the grand opening. At first glance, it is very boutique and high end. Pricing was good, and staff was helpful.

Looking more deeply I feel like it is a secret branch of Anthony Arms. Many of the staff I have seen working at Anthony's, and the one guy I talked to said: "we don't have a SOT at this location yet." Just food for thought. If the prices stay reasonable and customer service doesn't suffer as it has for me at Anthony's on more than one occasion, I will continue to shop here since it is 10 minutes from my house.

Anyone know if they carry smokeless powder?

Negative on the smokeless powder at this time. However, they seem to be having some issues with UPS as some things they intend to carry are lost in the UPS System. (PMAGS)

The guy on the right seemed to be the main investor of some sort. I have never met Ray Anthony, so I'm not sure if it is him.

No, that is Bruce. He was the Manager at Anthony Arms for a while.

I grew up in the South Hills but have been out of the area for almost 20 years. I make it back there from time to time and will have to check it out. I am not a big Anthony Arms fan for various reasons. At any rate, didn't Anthony Arms at least partially originate from a shop in Bethel Park called something or other Outfitters? I remember it being down the hill from Cool Springs driving range. Any connection to those guys? Just a thought.

LOL Yeah, it's a shame to call it a hoagie, because it's so much better than anything else by that name. The crispy cheese that rolls off the sandwich onto the pan is one of the best delicacies anywhere! I grew up in South Park, and remember going to Danny's after a drive-in movie next door. Damn, I'm hungry now too.

Everybody, after you go to the gun shop, take Rt. 88 one mile farther to Danny's and order "half an Italian with everything". Jules will vouch for them. You can thank me later.

They truly are a new level of subs.

Hey guys, I'm Josh Rowe one of the owners of AA&GW. I'm rarely on this site but a friend told me to drop by and check out this thread. First of all, thanks to those of you that have stopped in since we opened 17 Jan and again to those of you who have left us feedback here. Any input you all give us is welcome and appreciated and will certainty be taken under advisement.

As far as the location/address issue, we will consider adding the address to the home page specifically but there are currently 4 direct links to the "Contact Us" page on the landing page already.

As to any questions there might be about ownership here I can assure you 100% that we have ZERO to do with Anthony Arms. Both I and my partner Bruce had previously worked there in various capacities but decided to part ways with them last summer and go into business for ourselves. We do have some friends that also worked there in the past that do hang out here periodically but as of now Bruce and I are the only employees carried over from AA. As a matter of fact, the balance of our new crew are all relatively recent USAF & USMC vets.

We recognize that there is a lot of strong opinion both ways concerning our previous employer and all I can say is that we hope to take as many of the positives away from our time there and leave whatever negatives at the door. We're looking to establish a new paradigm in the area for not only the look and general atmosphere of a gun store but also the attitude we approach the industry. We just came off of a great weekend hosting Smith & Wesson Days. A LOT of satisfied customers came out of that event and we look forward to maintaining that momentum well into the future.

I/we really look forward to serving the Bethel Park community and greater South Hills in general for many years to come and hope to see you all come by!

What no NAVY VETS?

Hope you carry reloading supplies soon.

Good luck on the new store.
