Was on 501 yesterday & saw a gun shop (Hammer Down) by MB. Anybody been there? Good selection, prices, etc.?

I've been by there before and the selection was pretty limited,  just a few handguns and rifles on the wall.  I've heard they have upgraded a lot since I was there about four months ago though.

Haven't been there yet (or even heard of it).  I might check it out.

Do you remember anything about the prices?  High, like every other MB shop?

The prices were not bad, but not anywhere near good either.  I think with any small shop they have trouble having competitive rates because they don't do the volume of the bigger stores.  I've never been there, however I hear that the 707 Gun Shop has awesome prices that match even what's at BudsGunShop.com.

Thanks for the heads up.

I've been to 707 and got a Glock 23 there.  Definitely not what I would consider awesome prices (although they do have basic ACR's for $2100, which from the last I heard, is not a bad price)..........but maybe that's because I didn't know they would match Bud's prices, or knew to ask them to.

I was in a hurry (more just really excited) to get my first Glock after moving here from NY and switching my driver's license over.  I literally went to 707 about an hour after getting my DL.  So I wasn't as concerned with the price as I should have been.  Also, I traded a Saiga toward it anyway.  For the next Glock purchase, I had Steve Armstrong (I started a thread about him here in the Carolina HTF) order me one for much cheaper.

In the MB area, Bass Pro is hard to beat.  Also check with Jason at B&B guns in Conway, 701 South, Fishermans Headquarters
Oh yea and MB Police Supply.  They don't stock but they can get you whatever you want for pretty OK price last I checked.
