    Does anybody know a good dealer in the Scranton area that has Glock 19s at a good price? We should be going this weekend to get it. What about Advanced Arms in Pittston? I've heard good things about them...

    I haven't been to a whole lot of shops in the NEPA area since I found AdvancedArms. Their prices are very competitive, and their customer service is excellent. Whether you are a first time buyer, or a repeat, you are treated with respect.

    It never hurts to check around though... But I doubt you will be able to do much better...

    Give Chris a call or send him a PM and talk to him if you're interested. (He doesn't seem to have been on here as much lately though, so you might want to call)

    You could also call them to see if they have what you want in stock, before makeing the trip from Scranton.

    I don't think the Gen 4 G19s will be out to June or July from what I've been hearing. I'd suggest a 26 and use a pinkie extension for the range if you want. I personally own the G26 and I went back and forth over which to purchase also. I carry without the extension and use the pinkie or a +2 when I go to the range and I'm really trying for perfect targets. I can shot 95% as good without it though. Good luck with whatever you get.

    Well we went to Advanced Arms yesterday and picked up a Glock 19 with night sites and 3 mags.

    Great service and a good price!

    Going to be heading up to SGL 300 in Archibald this weekend to shoot it. I'd like to find a good indoor range too (especially since Archibald is only 25 yards for pistols.) but I can't seem to find any within the area. The only one I know of is the one in the basement of STARR uniform in Scranton. I shot there for my class however it isn't open to the public.

    Is Advanced Arms still planning to open one? I should have asked while I was there....

    Congradulations on the fine gift! Excellent choice. Tell your Dad to get on here so we can give him rep points.
    When the SHTF......be the fan.
