LoL .. where's the line?Always chocked full of AK's and Saiga's for large amounts of money.
Nay. Don't really recognize the name either. What is your opinion of them?Anybody else had any experience dealing with em?
Got email today they have final inspection tomorrow hope to officially open next week.Been meaning to check out GtoG gun range in Rosenberg. Opened recently. Bunch of former coworkers work there, great guys.
It's also a range.
The traffic in there is not what it used to be. My last dealings with them told me why. You won't see my car parked out front there again, and I must not be alone, because the last three times I passed by there, all the spaces directly in front of the store were empty. I guess you could recommend the place for its convenient parking.No list for the greater metro area would be complete without Tomball Pawn, 14011 FM 2920 Rd, Tomball TX 77377. Based on the traffic I see in there over the last few years, it seems to have morphed into basically a gun shop with a few display cases of jewelry and old tools attached.

It had been some time since I'd been there when I posted that and it's been 9 months since I did, so I'm a bit in the dark about what's changed. However, what you say is true. I went in there last week and there was parking right in front. That used to never be the case. But I didn't actually deal with them since there was nothing weird to catch my eye in the used guns.The traffic in there is not what it used to be. My last dealings with them told me why.
Looks like another gun shop it's going in where Pruetts used to be on Huffmiester.

Bout Damn time. One of their employees who used to work for us came by wednesday and I asked him when it's opening. He had no idea.Got email today they have final inspection tomorrow hope to officially open next week.

The whole reason it got delayed so long was because their A/C guy changed one thing from the blueprint and therefore they had to reinspect it all over again.
Went in and looked at a Sig P227. $859, so I said I'll think about it. Called back the next day (Wednesday) and said I believe I'm interested, how many do you have; I'll come by on Friday. Hank says "We had two when you were here. Now we have one. Do you want us to hold it til Friday?" I'll call back. I did ten minutes later and Hank was gone for the day, so I spoke with Mike the owner. "Yes, I'll put it on the hold shelf for you." Want a credit card? "No." I've bought maybe five guns from them before this, so they know I'm real.It had been some time since I'd been there when I posted that and it's been 9 months since I did, so I'm a bit in the dark about what's changed.

I've read that their transfer fees have gone through the roof but the place looked the same, except for the lack of traffic. So, what did your last dealings with them tell you that's different from the way I remember (all good) from years ago?
Shame on me for going back anyway. Tomball Pawn pulled that price thing on a Mossberg 20-gauge a while back. Gave me a price, ordered, then brought it up with $20 higher. I squawked and they fixed it. Should have been a warning. Oh well, fool me once... Eventually even a slow learner like me catches on.Anybody can screw up like that (twice, in your circumstances) but feeling like they can get away with raising the price on you because of their screwup is very, very bad customer service. If you have reasonable choices closer to you, there's no reason to drive all the way to Tomball. Thanks for the additional info.
A new pawn shop opened near me and I plan to drop in tomorrow. If they're an FFL I'll add them to this thread along with my impressions.
