Might be in Lock Haven for a few days
As the title states, I might be in Lock Haven for a few days on business. What is the area like, I've never been there. Local shops for firearms/fishing? Any suggestions on things to do? Anything to keep someone occupied at night, interesting sights, shops etc?

Re: Might be in Lock Haven for a few days
Not a whole lot exciting to do in Lock Haven. It is a small college town. For variety, you would be better off driving the half hour to Williamsport or State College.
As far as gun shops, the closest that I can think of would be Miller's Gun Shop in Mill Hall. It sits right along Rt 64 between Mill Hall and Lamar. Nice shop ran by some nice folks.
As for night life, all depends on what you want to do. Being a college town, there are a few bars. One dance type place. One movie theater with 3 screens. Not much shopping around other than the Wal-mart. Although just a short drive down the road to Woolrich to the Woolrich factory outlet store would be worth checking out.

Let me know specifically what you are looking for and maybe I can help.

The swimming in the Susquehanna is good on the road that goes to Farrandsville.
If you have a *real* 4x4, I can show you a nice route up to Hyner View State Park.
Lock Haven has a decent movie theater.
As stated before, Miller's gun shop is worth a look-see. there's also supposed to be a good gun shop in Jersey Shore, but I forgot its name.
The Piper aviation museum is at the Lock haven airport, practically downtown.
Rte 120 is a scenic drive up to Renovo. Get lunch at "Yesterdays" in Renovo.
Restless Oaks is a decent restaurant in McElhatten. Go there after shopping at Woolrich.

Re: Might be in Lock Haven for a few days
I have been there and I have dealt with them. I have never known them to do anything shady like you are suggesting. And I grew up in the area and have never known anyone else to ever have any experiences like you mention.
And no, I don't need to know the whole story. But your comments simply don't carry any weight because of the lack of facts.

Re: Might be in Lock Haven for a few days
I will also agree with zef, I have purchased numerous firearms and many hunting related products from this shop.
I know many others that have been visiting this shop for years and have NEVER had an incident similar to the vague description provided above.
AK47, good luck with your future dealings.Last edited by beerhunter; December 16th, 2008 at 09:03 AM.
