Guns of Yesteryear in Tunnel Hill GA

[Lorren68]

I finaly was able to make the trip up today, he had quite a bit of Primitive and modern ML stuff in the store. I asked about powder and he quoted me a price about $5 per pound cheaper than Deer Creek, unfortunatly he does not take credid or debit cards, so I wasted that trip. He did have pillow ticking and over powder cards on the shelf, and lots of eye candy on the walls and racks.

Is this a new business? Haven't heard of it. What's the address, I'll keep it on file.

 

[Trizey]

It's on Hwy. 41 in Tunnel Hill. Just south of the I75 TH exit on the left.

 

[Dave in N GA]

He is a good guy to deal with but he has strange hours. He's open in the evening on weekdays and all day on Saturday.

 

[Lorren68]

The shop is a small building on the right just after the two lanes north come together. I was looking at some of the guns he had(SWEEEEEET), and I found a few things I could use. My only disappointment was he did not take plastic, so I had to leave empty handed.

 

[mmarkey]

Will he take a personal check? Or is he a cash only business?

 

[CAL]

Its on the right .

Fellows, not arguing here but, the exit I was referring to was the "Truck City" exit. If you take it and turn left (south) on highway 41, the shop WILL be on the left.


Been in this area 53 + years and I know right from left. LOL

Correct-been in Whitfield County for 44 years. Also, if you take Highway 41 north off I-75 at 336 exit at Dalton go through Rocky Face and Tunnel Hill, GA and the shop will be on the right .

LOL, Hwy 41 crosses I-75 about 100 times. You could take any one of those exits and find your way to the store.


I've never been in there. Is he strickly muzzleloading or does he carry other things as well?

 

[Dave in N GA]

He's mostly black powder but he has a rack for old military rifles there in the middle of his small shop. Behind the counter he has a small number of more modern guns. His shop is a small log cabin about the size of a postage stamp but well worth the stop if you want to see old and unusual stuff.

 

[MCBUCK]

Do Randy and Gary still own it? I saw Gary about a year ago, and he said he was still in it. I think they have been in business there for 25 yrs or so.

The store was burglarized about a year or so ago and many firearms were stolen. Some were recovered - and some were not. The inventory has been reduced since that time. The criminals who took the items were caught. The store did have alot of firearms at one time.

Randy an Gary are still there. Several Military surplus rifles and a bunch of BP stuff. Like they said ODD HOURS but worth the trip. Bring CASH he don't accept plastic. I thing the exit # is 345 Ringgold Tunnell Hill.
