I just started dating a girl from Gainesville and I was wondering if there were any decent gun shops in the area that I could browse. I've spent one weekend there already and I just need something to preoccupy my time while she's working. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Really looking for something within half an hour to an hour drive max. I've been to Franklin's in Athens but it's nothing special. Just overpriced IMO. Might have to hit up The Firing Lane again though to flip the happy switch on their AK. :wink: :grin:
ETA:Come to think of it are there any members around the area?

Me.

Shuler's is not bad, and a new one about a mile from me, Omega.
We used to have an indoor range/shop. There is a public 85yd range near Lula.

We used to have a nice lake here. :lol:

Email or PM me anytime.

Yes, when your rolling up the 4 lane 985, get off at the Oakwood exit. (the big one under construction right now.) Take a LEFT and go under the 4 lane. Stay striaght on that road until it dead ends (about 2-3miles). There's a large log cabin style shop on the Right just before the intersection. Don't know the name but it's nice! Get your GF to take you to lunch at Brad's grill or Longstreet Cafe..both are excellent Gainesville Staples.. Johnny's BBQ ain't bad either and Durango is fantastic mexican...

We ate at the Wild Wing Cafe this past weekend and it was great. Got the big 9 piece sampler platter and it was delicious.
If you can find out the name or address of the shop you mentioned I can just put it in my GPS and it'll tell me how to get there lickedy split.

Any of these shops carry AKs? I have yet to find a shop in GA with a decent supply of AKs.

That log-cabin shop in Oakwood is more a hunting place. They have an indoor range downstairs. The location is about halfway between the college and where Mundy Mill rd "T's" into 53-McEver Rd.

Shulers had AKs last time I was in there, most had Tapco furniture. Omega had FALs, ARs, not sure if they had any AKs. They might now. They are on 53 on the west side of Gainesville.
If you ate at WildWings, you were only a block from Shulers.

Thanks I'll definitely have to visit Shulers and Omega. Omega's full name is Omega Man Weaponry correct? That's the only shop closest in name I could find in the Gainesville area.
The log cabin shop doesn't really sound like my cup of tea. I've had some bad experiences with the "Bubba" kind of shops. :roll:

The " log cabin " shop is the Oakwood Sportsmans Lodge. Also try Clyde Armory in Athens, not very far from Franklins. The outdoor range Prototype services mentioned is at Wilson Shoal WMA. Really nice range with a RO on sight , they close at 7pm.

Where are you located? Do you have an ad on the forum? I might be interested if you let me know what you have and if you're not too far out of the way.

If you come out 53 to Omega Man, it is only about 12-15 miles to the gun and pawn in Dawsonville. I've never been, but I think I know a "Frank" that works there.

Thanks. I'll hit it up if I get a chance. I'll definitely have to hit up Clyde Armory. I checked out their website and they seem to have a nice selection of stuff.
