    Gun store/shop opinions

    I am currently on Long Island, NY. Orion 7 gun store/shop is just down the road. Wondering if anyone has dealt with them and would like to solicit your opinions (good or bad). I have visited their website many times and understand they refurbish and offer parts for M1 Garands at different levels and grades. Looking at maybe picking up some correct parts for my early Winchester S/N 113248. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

        Good people to do business with. Never had a problem. Tony even answers his own phone.

          Latigo 1, Dean and Dan, thank you for your positive endorsements. You are very respected in the community and I am looking forward to my visit there. I've been up here for almost four months, training with USAF Special Forces and just found out that Orion 7 was only seven miles away! Better late than never. Hooyah.

            Back home to Florida from Long Island, NY. Had a few great visits at Orion 7. Totally class act. Enjoyed hanging out with the guys talking guns, politics, etc..... Saw some really awesome Garands and M1 Carbines. Lots of ammo and parts. Cool place. Highly recommend a visit if you are ever in the area.

                        2111, top rung outfit, worked with them and the PJ's. Nice place, wonderful weather. Dale they absolutely sell long rifles and shotguns. No handguns unless law enforcement. Found a few gun shops.

                          I'll venture-guess everybody here does business w/ Orion7 from time to time and it's satisfying. Take your Garand in when Tony has a little time to look it over and he'll remember it and keep an eye out for parts you may need if your goal is to "correct" it or fix something.
