not far south of you is Kessilrings.... excellent selection of anything you want gun related!

Try Survival Solutions, they just moved to Guide/Meridian, behind ProGolf. They are very black gun friendly, if they don't have what you want they'll order it, and they only charge $20 for a transfer if you buy something off the internet!

Only gun shop I know of that still has a gunsmith.

I need to get in there and check out that place Jose, and get together with you yet also.

I heard of some bad experiences with them prior to trying them out on my own. The gal down in the lower office seamed really nice, however the mall ninja upstairs seamed like he was all about his latest round of swat training. I was up there for a good 15 minutes with out any acknowledgment that I was even there. They had a good selection, if you are a Glock owner which I am not.

I know that it is a rather long drive, but Kesselring is well worth it. That is a great gun shop. Huge selection, low prices, and friendly staff. Just a little hard to find. I passed it the first time I looked for it.

Just my .02 and my first post

Coming into this a bit late, but for anyone doing a search like I did & finding this thread:

Like Fisher1 I had the same exact experience at Survival Solutions / Agency Firearms back in the Fall of 2010.

Another consideration, though also a bit of a drive, is Dave's Sport Shop out in Lynden. This is where I had my Galil shipped to that I bought off the internet. It was only a $20 transfer fee as well. Very friendly staff, all kinds of firearms, and a very cool shop to just wander around in.

Another vote for Daves sport shop with the reminder to stay away from the older white haired guy. This guy will do nothing to help out customers and he is a prick to boot. Trust the gal that works there she is friendly and knowledgable

Dave's and Kesselrings are both good. Survival Solutions has had some growing pains with staff but most of the mall ninjas have been moved on.

Paul Wall · 04-28-2011, 03:10 PM

Kesselrings is awesome,but a little crowded,lol!

DerBarbarian · 05-12-2011, 10:06 PM

Kesselrings is a great shop, don't expect the best service though, if you go in and are just a looker they're not the nicest, but if you go in there knowing exactly what you want it's a good shop, decent prices..

Yeager's is the go to, but Survival Solutions seems to speciaize in Saiga and other Soviet weapons, which is cool. They have a good selection of various tactical firearms and are quite knowledgeable about modifications and such.
