New Chattanooga Gun Store

[mousegunner]

J & M Pawn Brokers, 5821 Lee Highway, has begun carrying guns again. They quit selling guns a few years ago, but they have an ad in the classified section of the Times Free Press today. I have no idea what sort of inventory they have, but I wish them well.

Thanks for the heads up.

Actually the previous business there was named G&L.Gene (the G) sold out to an older guy who worked there and he and Toby, a long time employee ran it until they closed.These new people opened up a while back.I went in and looked around when they first started and if their gun prices are as high as their pawn shop items then they won't sell many guns.

Took the afternoon off after a doctor appointment and went around searching for ammo. (Didn't find any.) I drove right by this shop, saw the sign saying "Guns" in the window and wondered if they had gotten their FFL. I figured it was an old sign, now I'll have to make a special trip over there to see what they have.

[Guest abailey362]

which one is that? I stopped by the one hooked to the biker bar and they actually had a decent selection at halfway decent prices on some things

[BrandonTN]

I think that may be the same one...

[gtssilver]

yes that's the same shop.

thanks guys ill have to check it out!

[Almond27]

thanks mouse for posting this I'll check them out.

[Guest m4coyote]

Great! I miss Gene and his nice inventory. He was a good friend of my Uncle, and we purchased quite a few guns from him.

We need a new gun shop or five around here. I will certainly stop by, and check them out.

[et45]

Gene was a good guy.He always seemed to have at least one or two good deals every time I went in there.I bought a lot of guns from him over the years.

[Almond27]

I stopped in today and they had a lot of long guns! Prices were so so I don't know how much haggle room they had they had some guy in there talking business with them.

[Guest abailey362]

i was in thursday again and they were getting in a few RIA compact's. I had to leave before I was tempted anymore by them. Hope they do good business, but that parking lot sucks

[mousegunner]

Who will be the first from this board to favor the new gun store with a sale? Let us know, and post pix!

[Guest slim]

Any new AKs or ARs? Also any milsurp rifles or pistols?

Thanks

[Almond27]

Slim they had one Bushmaster AR two looked to be WASR 10s and alot of milsurplus rifles and probably some toks.

[Guest slim]

Thanks, will check them out, next week!

[Guest Spuds]

WASR-10 $799

Bushmaster $899

Or was it $899 & $999?

Yugo SKS good condition (not VG, G) $369 & $399

30 round AR15 mags $24.99

Won't bother myself going back. Appear to be in the looking for a sucker business, not the gun business. Or maybe that's retail these days? I know folks are asking these prices since 11/4, but I've not seen them getting them.

[Guest slim]

:poop:Wow! :screwy:I guess, i will not waste my time. Thanks there Buds, oops i meant Spuds!

[BrandonTN]

I was gonna stop in tomorrow, but not after seeing those prices! I wish them luck...

[frankmako]

went in the store several months ago. prices were high on guns and the pawn shop items. was hoping the prices were in line with other tri-county area stores, but it does not sound like it is. might stop by this week to look.

[Guest Ctucciar]

How was there pistol selection? looking for Taurus .38 for the wifey.

[Guest Grout]

How was there pistol selection? looking for Taurus .38 for the wifey.

I was in there today and saw a couple.The guy running the guns is the former owner who bought out Gene.Okay guy,I'm guessing they brought him in to run the gun end of it.Prices were decent on most guns.The J frame Smiths were priced pretty high though.

[Almond27]

did they still have that M1A when you fellas were in there I would have loved to had it. Never saw the price but I can imagine it:rolleyes:

[Guest abailey362]

handgun prices were decent...better than buying from sportsmans. the old rifles seem to be a little high.

899 for a bushy is normal to a good deal in the current buying climate...not that i'd pay it for a basic xm15...but plenty will
