    Default Anthony Arms

    Just curious-

    What's the current situation with Anthony Arms in West Mifflin?
    I don't go by there anymore to stop in, but last time I did, only the range was open.

    I was wondering the same thing. I stopped yesterday and the door was covered in paper and the sign said closed for remodeling. The range was open only.

    My understanding is the young woman that did the deal committed suicide. I hope I am wrong.
    She had kid(s). Sad!
    I don’t know what the stores fate is.

    That thread is old. I was wondering if their shop was open, or will be soon.

    Anthony Arms is no longer in business. The location was sold to a new owner (or family) and has reopened as "Gunner's". I don't use the range there, so I do not know if or how they have transitioned users or memberships to the new business. I stopped in briefly looking for an AIWB holster. Seems that there were mostly women staffing the sales floor. The showcases and floorplan is the same except they have walled off about a third of what used to be where the used guns were and reduced the open floor space. Friendly and helpful, but did not have an overwhelmingly large gun selection, but that is surely not their fault at this point.

    Thanks for the info. I'll have to check it out.

    Stopped there today.
    As Pete said reduced floor space remodeled the inside. No used guns that I saw. A bunch of EBRs.
    Glad to see new faces behind the counter. Anthony’s staff seemed condescending.

    Did you happen to go down to the range? Any differences there? Improvements, policy changes, etc...

    I still haven't gone over, maybe I'll try in the next couple of weeks.
    Tomorrow's battle is won during today's practice.

    Sorry. I didn’t visit the range.
    The shop is nice but seems to be trying to cater to the white wine, cheese and croissant clientele.
    I’m an Iron City and hot dog guy.
    I didn’t see a revolver there. But they did have a Hi Point 9 for $269!
