When I left the only reputable gun store was WSI. With WSI out of the picture, is there anyone to buy new EBRs from over there? Any, say, Bushmaster stocking dealers?

First person to say Wade's gets a smack.

Find 'em online and then hit local FFL dealers thread.

Grab a yellow pages xerox the gun shop section and whenever you find yourself going somewhere somewhere check out the shop(s) in that area, you're goingto want to see most of them at least once just for the heck of it anyway.

Washington Arms Collectors Gun show as said up there ^ at the Puyallup Fair grounds. It is big and there is a good variety of weapons. I am a member and go every month mostly for ammo and entertainment. If you are ever up here stop by the show you will love it.

I saw some threads mentioning lost guns during boat rides.   Therefore, the bottom of the lakes and the sea can be also a good source.

Ben's in Renton, or the Olympic Factory are good places to start. Bulldog in Tacoma and Kesselring's, but Kesselring's is kinda prudish.

I've bought from Bullseye in Tacoma, Marksman in Puyallup, and also at the WAC.

All good places to me so far.

Sams has an SR-25 hanging on the wall. Been there for a while. Too rich for my blood.

You still pay for shipping and FFL fee.  So usually, most of the time, it will come pretty close.

For once I completly agree with you frisky. I p/u a sweet hk tatical shotgun from them today they had the best price I have seen. Wades used to be the same way many years ago  before they moved.

Sage advice:

WAC shows
Federal Way Discount Guns
Bens Loan in Renton
Adventure Sports in Lynnwood
Marksman in Puyallup
Bullseye in Tacoma
LEEDs in Tacoma
DJs in Bothell

Kesselrings

All the aforementioned dealers are good sources.  

Here, I'll step up and mention Wade's (I'm not afraid). he

Would I buy anything there?  Sure, as long as I have all five numbers and the Mega Ball number on any given Tuesday or Friday night on my ticket.

If you're up by 99,

Sam's has good prices on guns. Haven't bought a buncha ammo there, but have found pistols at prices lower than WAC shows. Of course, the pawn shops have some deals. Buyer beware on 'em.

Just wanted to give my experience with Ben's Loan....

I had asked in another thread about recommended shops on the Eastside.  It was suggested that I try Ben's Loan...a mere 5min from my house.  I've never been there, but had noticed it a couple of times.  I went in and found the best tag price I've seen locally on a Springfield XD sub 9.  The sales people were friendly and knowledgeable.  Didn't try to sell me too much....that's something I appreciate.  Within 15 min they were calling in my ID check.  I'm a happy customer.  They also threw in a small discount on any ammo I wanted to buy.   Seems like good people.  I'll definitely visit them again.  

Their proximity to me is also a nice plus.

Thanks for the recommendation on Ben's.

Not beware of the shops Jafo,

Beware of the used guns. You never know how they've been treated, so a through inspection would be prudent, imo.

I like online auctions & Arlington Gun Club.

I used to like both Timid Gun Shop and Lynnwood Guns.

Paul Timid is a great guy. His shop was one of the very few things I missed when I moved from Lake City back to Thurston County in 1995 to attend school. It saddens me that his shop has closed.

I use to buy from a shop in Lynnwood called Guntown. It now is now closed. I then started going to Federal Way Discount Guns. Now I just order what I want from Paul's Sporting Arms. He is a real nice guy. He goes to all the WAC shows also.  Plus he is my wife's uncle. I sent a few people his way they where all happy with service and the price.
