It's just way too hard to describe this place to people, so while I was in taking care of business on Saturday (heh) I got permission to take some full shop shots. If you hear people talk about the shop but haven't visited yet, here's a teaser.

(the blade and shotgun rooms are bigger with more stuff than what you see, space limitations/design make it hard to take pics)

The place has been mentioned many times on the forum, didn't think I needed to re-post the directions. It's extremely easy and convenient to get to from the 101 and is centrally located between SF and San Jose.

EDIT: Tuesday -> Saturday, 12-5 only.

Completely! I found out about the place from either Greg or Leo (I think?) at Jackson Arms one day, I've just purchased my 2nd firearm from them and am already planning the next one. I love going in there just to look at all the cool old stuff, I learn a lot by just listening to people who *really* know about collectibles talk.

The prices are fair, the guys are nice and mellow, the selections are huge depending on what you're looking for (Sig/Baretta/Glock guys this place isn't for you) -- I'm a CZ kinda guy, they have all the CZ goodies there at slightly below MSRP - I just picked up 6 more CZ mags for various models while in there as well, something that's really hard to find at other gun shops.

Cool place to check out...totally hidden on a off street..

You guys do know that Mike is the maker of the famous 45acp Lugers right???

His 45acp Lugers are completely hand made and run in the 10's of thousands.

He was mentioned in last months Guns and Ammo as being the go to expert on Lugers in the US.

And he found me this;
