^^^ I heard years ago that in order to build there they would have to dig up the top 3-4 feet of dirt first since it was so contaminated.Which is why it was for sale so long,Wilbur might have dropped the price just to unload it though.
LOL! Obviously a sporting goods nut would only remember Dicks!
But seriously, almost everything is there except actual Mall type stores. It's also jst up the road from crofton and Bowie which also have a ton of shopping. Frankly, I more often head toward Glen Burnie for most of my shopping (and to make my gun store rounds, ) . But right next to Waugh Chapel is a Wegman's I like to visit occasionally (also a Safeway in Waugh Chapel itself).
Don't forget Scott's Gunsmithing in Glen Burnie...they're an IP here and Sharkey's a really good guy who not only smiths, but usually has some inventory as well. In addition to modern firearms, Scotts pretty often has some consignment guns that are often pretty nice. Chad who posts here a lot has been a 'smith at Scotts. Also my favorite pawn shop is A&D guns and pawn. Bought stuff from both sides of their business. Larry (owner) and his employee, Jimmy (primarily firearms sales) are really great guys too. You're also not far at all from Severna Park (maybe 10+ miles....it would be much closer if they had a bridge over the Severn river! - you have to basically drive around the river)
I can actually drive to Stoney Creek through East West blvd and it's only about 16 or 17 miles. I just use the 'all highway' to avoid lights and slow speed limits in order to get there faster...even though it's almost 4 miles further. AACFG&G is about 20 miles....but I do live on the Millersville side of Crownsville near the OP
A&D lost all my business when they refused to release on time last summer and raised their prices at the same time. Their ignorance of the law and SB281 at the time was appalling.
As an aside, I grew up in one of the neighborhoods that east-west blvd runs through.....if anyone told be when I was a kid that some day such a road would be running thorugh my neighborhood I would have laughed in their faces....

FYI, I used to work at Listman's Store back in the about 77 - 78 while attending AA Communty College and when I first started going to Univ of MD
I grew up just about 3 miles or so from there. My bus to Severna Park Jr High used to run right down Pasadena Rd and cross onto West Pasadena for 2yrs. FYI, I used to work at Listman's Store back in the about 77 - 78 while attending AA Communty College and when I first started going to Univ of MD

I enjoy going to A&D as well. Bought a couple things from them, and they're always pleasant.
Best part is, they'll let you look as long as you like, and let you handle whatever piece of hardware you're interested in.
You say this like there were no other shops doing the same thing.
In the same breath, they will usually let you pay on a firearm for damn near any amount for as long as it takes for you to pay it off. Jimmy will probably say " Sure. Whatever you want to do". Go to a wholly dedicated gun shop and see if they will let you do the same thing.
I have bought maybe 10 pistols from them over the years and enjoy it there. Jimmy is quirky and pretty knowledgable guy. A&D is another place I do go and just hang out sometimes.
Hummmm...Sounds familiar....sxs..
