Curious to know if this is an actual store front and if so, do they carry a decent selection of pistols?
I should be in the area in a couple of months and if its worth stopping by (or if you know a better place with a really good selection of firearms AND price) I will add it to my "To Do" list.

I honestly dont know if it's a physical storefront or not. If you go through gunbroker and just search by DE, they've got a ton of stuff for fairly high panic prices. A little google investigation shows "Hocker's" is a grocery store in the state so I'm thinking maybe the owner just has an FFL and uses the business's name(?)

That is sort of why I posted.
Everything I found was related to some grocery outlet.
Some if there handguns were some of the better prices I have seen.
Was hoping they had a HUGE store front.

Any good stores near the Lewes area with a good selection and good prices?

Im from upstate so I am not too familiar with gun shops down south. If you come up state, about an hour and a half, there's several good gun shops. And, if you venture into southeastern PA a bit, theres a couple good shops that way. Hopefully somebody else chimes in and can help you out with gun shops down that way! If you want the names of the ones up here, I can definitely give you those.

Thanks, but I am only there for a short time.
Looking for something close by as shopping for firearms is a secondary objective for this trip.

if it's of any interest to you, I do know LWRC is headquartered down that way, just over the Maryland line in Cambridge but I can't find a definitive answer as to whether or not they have a storefront.

Never heard of them and just looked them up and not really what I am looking for.

I know it is going to be near impossible now with the way things are but I am hoping to find a decent sized store with a good variety of firearms I can actually handle.
More in line with Walther PDP. Can't decide on the 4.5 or 5 inch and these people have some of the better prices.
Also would like to check out some Kimber 1911s and hoping to find Dan Wesson 1911s but those are like unicorns right now.

It is also the reason why I posted in another thread in the DE section about Gun Shows.
Was hoping there was one happening early April.

Talked to a buddy down that way, he said Best Shot is a decent shop, located in Rehoboth. I'd give them a look.

Will keep them in mind, but checking their web site and their prices and the same or higher as others.
The reason for checking out the Hocker's Store is their GB prices are better than most others and was hoping they had a larger selection within an actual store.

As far as store fronts north of the canal. X ring probably has the best prices.  First state firearms would have the best selection but I feel their prices are high.

Thanks. That about a 90 minute. Not too bad.
Time permitting I may be able to check it out.

Agreed, first state’s prices are high on just about everything. I bought a VG6 Gamma for $27 online and they wanted $80 for one

Same guy as they use the same address, but I can't find an FFL issued to him to his name or his business name.
