Cool Ed's gun shop in Tamaqua!

I was just in there again the other day, Great to do business with. I have purchased 6 guns from there in the last 2 yrs. Ed, Brett, Kyle and Mike are great. I almost forgot Ed's wife Vicky, she is the person if you are looking for any type of gun magazines. Very knowledgeable people and very helpful. Check them out!

Yea I usually go to ed's to get my ammo, but I find his prices on handguns to be about 30-60 higher then the other shop I like to go too. Very nice shop and enjoyable to speak with.

Richland Shooters Supplies is where I have bought my 2 handguns. Always have been the cheapest and very nice to deal with.

You can actually look at new gun prices from there website. But I have found that they are usually a few dollars cheaper then listed on the site. I just picked up my Ruger LCP on friday and it is listed as $252.99 on the website, but was actually $249.95 at the store.

Thumbs up Re: Ed's gun shop in Tamaqua!

Great place I bought an AK there. I wish I had bought the .223 ammo they had... it was a really good price.

Just had a very good experience with Ed's. Bought a magazine off them this weekend at the Reading gun show. Apparantly the magazine was mispackaged (was a 10rnd when I thought it was 15). Called today, expecting to get the "your fault for not checking it at the show" line. Spoke with Vicki, who apologised for the mix-up, said she had a 15rnd, and will exchange through the mail, plus cover shipping. This is for a $20 used mag, mind you.

Theyre out of my neck of the woods, but when I get treated that good for something so small, I might have to keep them in mind next time Im toy-hunting.

Just went to Ed's today after work and picked up 400 rounds of .45 CCI Blazer. Still only $11.95/bx. He said they don't have many left and the next ones are going up in price. Always nice to talk to and ammo prices are the best I have seen in the area.

I have never had a bad experience at Ed's. The entire staff is knowledgeable and extremely helpful. I will not do business with anyone else after my experiences at Ed's.
