New Gun Store in Plano to Browse

Post by Keith B »

Just found out about them today, Gungeartogo in Plano. They are located on the southwest corner of Parker and 75 just east of Target. They said they have been open about 4 months. Don't know how I missed that. :headscratch

They had a fairly good seleciton of AR's, as well as a good supply of handguns. Some of the guys working there used to work at the Bullet Trap. Friendly staff and nice store. :thumbs2:

Their website is http://www.gungeartogo.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It is on the access road, south by 75. It is just east of the Target. Going south on 75, take the parker rd. exit. Go under the bridge, and the first time you can turn left, it will be into the parking lot and their store is the corner one. Big sign on it as well.

I am signed up to recieve their newsletter. Last newsletter said they had gotten shipments of guns and ammo so I stopped by. They had no 9mm or .45 other than a few defenive rounds. They were quite high on what ammo they did have as well as their guns (at least in my mind).

Their new guns seemed to be on track with most others. Handguns were at least; didn't look real close on AR's. And, some AR's are on consignment, so if looking at those they are probably overpriced.

Ammo and other high demand items go pretty quickly, especially 9mm and .45. Not to derail my topic, but was in Gunmaster yesterday after work. A friend of mine who I hadn't seen in a few years was looking for an AR. It just so happened that they set out 3 new ones (a Bushmaster, a DPMS and a S&W) about 2 minutes after he arrived. I told him he better grab the S&W quick as it was $895. 15 minutes later he was walking out the door with his 1st AR. :thumbs2: I told him to tell his wife it was my fault for him buying it. :lol: Will bet the other 2 are gone first thing this morning.

Yeah, the AR's were a bit high 1300.00-2500.00. I guess its supply and demand but I dont really need another one anyway.

Wow Keith... 895 for a Smith and Wesson AR isn't bad at all in todays market. The few "fun guns" I saw at GTG were consignment guns. I asked them how it works. I tell them how much I want for it and if it sells, they get a cut. I forgot what the percent was.

Prices on other stuff seemed in line with prices everywhere else. I was looking at the Kahr PM40 and it was ten bucks less than at BT. I dunno... seemed like a pretty nice store to me.

Bright, clean and spacious place - lots of accessories, add-ons, upgrades, flashlights, gun-books, magazines, videos, etc. They had a fair amount of reasonably-priced complete AR15s (eg S&W M&P for $999.95), a few AKs, a lot of tactical-style shotguns, and what I would consider a great selection of handguns. Glocks, M&Ps, XD/XDMs, 1911s (Colt, SA, Remington, Wilson, Nighthawk, Taurus, etc) - they had revolvers and the smaller handguns too, but I didn't have a lot of time.

I noticed a lack of AR/AK magazines - normal these days - but I didn't have time to peruse the ammo-availability or pricing. The staff sounded knowledgeable - I didn't hear any condescending or Rambo-factor talk; they seemed very helpful and not surly like most gun-store staff. If they keep it up I think they'll have a winner on their hands.
That was my impression of the store as well Andy. I like the place.
