    Wow, has Green Mountain gone down hill with the pending new ownership as of summer 2021. This used to be the place for the best consignment guns in the metro area, been buying there since I moved here in 1984. Outside of 3 of the guys the rest are worthless. There's one tall young guy that thinks he knows all about guns but doesn't know shit. Kind of arrogant as well. Tried to convince me that the Smith 629 is a K frame. I do pride myself on my familiarity with S&Ws, been a collector/accumulator for about 40 years haha.I just nodded and moved along. To be fair they do have a couple of model 15s that are priced fair (the -4 especially).

    I'm a 1911 guy, kind of a snob if I'm honest, he's touting the fine quality of RIA among other -$600 1911s and comparing them to everything from Dan Wesson, Les Baer, Wilson and Nighthawk. Uh huh. They have a Colt lw Commander, stainless, that they allowed the owner to price it at $995. I was about to say "I'll bring that one home" until I looked it over. Has more scrapes/scratches than many other pistols I've examined in many years.

    Ok, I know everyone likes different stuff, but again this store has gone a long way down hill in the past couple of years. I stop in to look around but unless I come across a super deal won't be buying there again.

    Rant off.

    Supposedly Mike, the gentleman that purchased the store from the original owner and always treated me well, is retiring for good. Not sure on the timing but it’s been awhile since I’ve seen him in the store.
