Mil Surplus store in OC?

[johnk518]

Are there any places that specialize in C&R guns in OC? You know, walk in, see them, buy.

The answer probably is mostly no, except you might find something at the Sam Fowler Gun Room (I haven't been there in years...so I don't know what they have now). Other than that, it may be a couple of auction places people have mentioned and whatever you find on the used gun or consignment rack of Orange County gun stores. You'd probably have better luck finding C&R owners with firearms to sell here on Calguns.

Was going to mention the Grant Boys, but thought I should check first: looks like the closed in 2015! I thought I was just there, but I was obviously wrong. RIP Grant Boys & Stockade :-(

^Hate to see gun stores close, but I won't miss either of those shops. Only bad experiences at both for me.

Fowler’s usually has some on their rack but that’s as expensive a gun store as there is in all of SoCal as best I know. Little John’s maybe?

[Grendl]

I thought Little John's was auction only. Am I missing something?

Same recommendation here that I put in that thread. OC Auctions

The do auctions AND have direct retails sales. Not much right now because the auction is coming up soon but worth stopping by when you're in the area.

Dave, Ryan, Michelle and Carol, all cool people over there.

I'm good with auctions, it's a start. Thanks!

The cool thing about the auction house is you can inspect lots of high end and rare firearms that you might not ever see in person otherwise, they are all on display.

Then you can wander over to the actual for sale rack and get your "normal" mosin/enfield/mauser/etc at regular guy prices

I had a look at his selection at the Santa Barbara show, and there was some nice ones.

Little John's Gun Shop - 1740 W. La Veta Ave., Orange, CA 92867

I have not been to his shop, but he said he had the same guns on show in the shop.
