    The Gun Merchant on 313 coming south out of Federalsburg comes highly recommended by one of my co-workers. I would have stopped in there sometime, but nowhere to park the truck.

    There's also one at the southwest corner of 404 and 309 in Queen Anne.

    Is that one in Georgetown the guy with the signs out front sayin' they "specialize in exotic arms"?

    That guy has some cool stuff and is centered on a beautiful piece of property.

    Lighthouse guns and gear in Selbyville. Not far up rt 54 from ocean city. A lot of good stuff packed in a small place. Best shop around those parts.

    Is Albrights in Easton worthwhile? Haven't been there in 15 years.
    If you are from the western shore and want to buy an expensive OU for your yearly duck trip to the shore ;)

    There is Shore Sportsman on 50 in Easton, Dicks in Easton by the Target on the bypass and Gander Mountain in Salisbury.

    +1. Stopped going to Cruiser weekends probably back in 2001, always rained in the Spring and the Fall. It looks like awesome weather this weekend.
    Same here. 2 straight years of sweatily huddling together under awnings waiting for the rain to stop put an end to that trip.

    Good weather just means that the one guy will be back out with his 5gal bucket of water for the burn outs on the strip.... as if most of those cars actually need it :)

    Actually that was my goof. :facepalm:

    It's at 404 and Ridgely Rd. Drove by there today. :)

    If you come out 404 and go through Lewes DE there is a gun shop called steel's on rt9 that has all kinds of used older guns. Also to throw a bone there way Tuckahoe Sportsman are great people. They supy us with all of the guns for our gunbash. If you stop by there check out our tickets and come bake to the shore in a week and a half for a good time and good eats.

    SB got it fixed. I only went in there once and that was because of the Denton Gun Bash that Firemanyz mentions. Nice shop with a good selection of guns, at least when I was in there. Very nice people.

    I went by Larry's Trading Post in Berlin, MD. I was greeted friendly and looked around the shop Larry was helping someone so I ask the older heavier male employee to check out the VP9.

    He repeatedly told me not to rack the slide, I removed the mag and he got mad that I was going to pull it back. he was telling me it was pricey and the finish would wear. I didn't trust if it was hot or not. I put the firearm down and walked out.

    Larry didn't say anything but I look young so I guess I was being judged or they are playing roulette. too bad Had alot of high end even a half dozen nighthawks

    No need to buy from a place that's anal like that. I would understand if its a $150,000 Over/Under, not a dime/dozen H&K LOL

    Jason that could have been me you dealt with. If people continually rack the slide on a new gun it scar's the barrel hood and when some people see that they think the gun has been used and they won't buy it. That's why you see the NightHawk's and other expensive guns strapped up with a Zip tie. I was not mad but had to be adamant about store policy. And IMO there's no need to rack the slide after all it was an HK.:sad20:
