? on gun shop in Millersville

platoonDaddy · Dec 7, 2014

This afternoon, I did a search on Blue Label dealers in my area and big as dog-poop there is just one up the road.

Anyone know anything about Worth A Shot, checked the IP's and they are not a member?

They are not an IP here but seem to be good people. I live a couple of miles from there and have been in their shop a few times. They were moving to a bigger shop in the same building.

I bought my last blue label from them, they are nice people. They were 25 dollars more then what cop shop wanted but I didn't have to drive into the city, not that Sams shop is that bad to get to. Anyways, I paid $450 for my Gen 4 plus the fees and will probably be buying another from them as my Christmas present.

Did you also have to purchase a barrel-lock? Sam forces you to purchase one and that always pissed me off. Purchased a couple 9mm's from him and he wouldn't let me use a previous lock. Oh well.

Going to check out Worth-A-Shot this coming week and also ask them why they aren't an IP on this site.

Thanks

That would be a show stopper for me.

No, Worth-A-Shot will let you bring in your own bore lock. Just make sure that it is the correct one as they will make sure and install it before you leave. I know some dealers don't check/install it, as long as you have one your good to go but not them. I have a .40 and a 9mm if you need to borrow one of those.

I did a transfer through them during "the panic". Small shop, not too much stock. People are nice, prices seemed a but high (Glocks over 6 bills....) from what I recall, though I haven't been in the shop for over a year.

They've added some more inventory and will be moving to a bigger store (same building) shortly.I thought I heard they signed up here awhile back (not as IP).

son-in-law bought a lower from him and got the mil discount prior to the Oct 1 deadline. Said he was good people.

bigalf · Dec 7, 2014

I will echo what most other people have said. Shop is small, however the employees were really nice. Glock BL prices were higher than other places I have seen them advertised.

From their website it looks like they are geared more towards training.

"Worth-A-Shot, Inc. is a family - owned and operated firearms instruction company. We provide top-quality, professional training to shooters of all levels - from beginners to law enforcement professionals. We offer training in a friendly, nurturing environment. Our staff are firearms professionals, most of whom have law enforcement backgrounds. We understand your needs and concerns, and are able to meet them."

It's probably worth a shot for me to stop in and see what they got since I pass it every day.

Did my HQL fingerprinting. Def nice people, clean neat store, pleasant location near AACo F&P HQ

annihilation-time · Dec 7, 2014

My father and a few friends have used them for HQL prints. Everyone said the people are nice, but the prices are high.

I have bought a lower, 1 blue label, did my Utah CCW with them, and Donna notarized my paperwork for my collector status

- Blue label sells itself.
- The process for the Utah CCW was pretty straight forward
- I bought a lower from them during the panic crap last year.......yes over priced, but supply and demand was what it was.

Donna and Neal have been great to work with. I'll go back for my next blue label

Got a lower from them as well. While a bit overpriced (it was a week or so prior to the "deadline"), the process was smooth even if you factor in the crazy long line (which most shops experienced during that time).

Nothing in the law says the lock must be installed.

I have purchased several BL's there and Utah Class, transfers etc. Expect a moving into new building sale in December from what I here (end unit of building they are in). BL's might be $25 off. Bring a bore lock. good people. That makes me wonder when that sale/move is!
