I did enjoy dealing with Dave Troxell but, most of my future business will be with National. Adam is a great guy and I know his wife very well. Tripolis never tripped my trigger, I felt like unless you were LEO, you were avoided.. I see local PD cars there often as I live 2 blocks from his business.

National and Survival Response Technologies are the only two I go to.

I have made purchases at all the conventional local shops at one time or the other over the past 20+yrs living in the Williamsport area, I have not heard of Survival Response Technologies though. Although I haven't purchased any firearms from Nationals I have been in the store and made other purchases. I would have to say that currently they would be the most up to date shop in the county. The event they sponsored at CS this year was the best gun related thing to happen in this county in a long time. So they will get my vote. But I would never wish for them to be the only shop.

I deal with National almost all the time anymore. They are close to me and always very friendly and helpful when you go in there. I used to shop at Sauers but he doesn't really keep much in stock anymore. I still stop in every so often to see what he has though. Sometimes you can find really good deals their.

Sauers, Been dealing with John since he was up in Duboistown. For reloading supplies I go to Troxell's. I have bought a couple of guns there over the years as I have at Nationals. If I'm trading one in I avoid National due to the lowball offers. Been to Tripoli's, no need to go back. Not big on Gander Mountain though I did by a Glock there on sale sale a couple years ago (19C for less then 500) Never bought a gun from Dugan's(Dixie Gun Shop) but I have got a couple of used encore barrels for a decent price. The guns seem on the high side. There is a new place in Montgomery waiting for there FFL. Been in for ammo so far. Prices not to bad. That was when you could get ammo.
