Default Bouldin's Irwin PA Great service and price

I had a round stuck in the chamber of my AR. I tried to punch it out with cleaning rods. I tried to pry it with a screwdriver and i tried to pull it with pliers. Noting would budge this round. I took it to Bouldin's in Irwin and after about forty minutes of work they were able to pop it out. They said they have never seen a round that stubborn. After all that work they only charged me $10. They also had pretty good prices on Wolf .223. They were charging $239 for a case. They were very friendly. I would highly recommend them.

My dad grew up with Joe. He is a shooter and collector. The owner Doc is a good guy too. We've bought all but one of our handguns from them. Quality shop and good guys, I would recommend shopping there to anyone.

For some reason I didn't think that they were still in business. It must be cuz main street is so busy . Do they carry much in stock or is it more so orders?

I'm not sure what to call a lot. They normally have a couple to 3 cases of hand guns and a wall and a half of long arms. Sometimes its leaner sometimes there is more. Vague I know, but thats about the best I can come up with.

That is a very good price, BTW.

Glad you were able to get that taken care of! thanks for the tip.
