national pawnbrokers, arlington VA

[flowmaster]

national pawnbrokers can be seen from rte 66 in both directions in arlington. its where lee highway intersects with spout run, accross the street from Giant grocery store. big place, been there forever, and they have guns.

the guy i've spoken to about guns is named paul and i think he's been there for a while. not exactly mr personality, but i've done some business with him and he seems to know his stuff.

their gun selection isn't that great, they've been downsizing lately. one of their gun cases is just full of bows now, not guns. they do have some good deals on ammo though. i picked up some 9mm largo for a song a few months ago, and its JHPs they don't even make anymore. some of the prices on ammo are outdated, so good deals can be had if you're up to date on what ammo is going for. when i was there last week they actually had 7.62x39, in stock! it was nine bucks a box, but they actually had it. that's more than you can say for most other places in NOVA right now.

thoughts?

I've been there recently, I live right up the street. I was picking up a guitar but I did notice that they had quite a few handguns. This was a couple months ago, whens the last time you were there?

i was there probably 2 weeks ago, maybe 3 weeks ago at most. i was buying 25acp for $10 a box. he has since repriced it.
