Man, GLICK Twins (No, not « GLOCK ») is right down the road !

I keep hearing good things about Glick twins but haven’t made it over there yet. I’ve been pretty much sticking to shooters alley and south Texas tactical so far.

I've bought pistols and rifles and have LTC, all the stores still fill out form. And walk you to the door. Probably to reduce 'scare' to other customers and fullfill liability req. so no-one buys a gun, loads it and starts shooting customers. They don't care if you are armed anyway, just not he gun they just sold.

Yes, it’s a real PITA to buy guns from Academy. Plan on 30 mins after the 4473 is done at minimum. If someone else is in front of you, then you are screwed. I dont really consider them anymore for this very reason. And on top of that, you get the walk of shame and have to wait in line yet again to check out.

My FFL gets me out the door in (I’m just guessing here) about 15 minutes or so.

Who is your FFL if I may ask?

I live in SW LA, but hunted, fished, & vacationed in the RGV for decades b/f moving there back in the 1990’s for several years. Glick Twins was there many years back, made history selling shotgun shells.

It has become a South Texas Institution.

Since ‘’Chuck’s Guns’’ closed a few years back, I no longer have a lgs there.

Enjoy the Valley, it is a great part of America.

He’s a coin and jewelry shop that does this on the side here in Houston. To my knowledge he doesn’t have any locations in ElPaso. Just a small two person shop. He says it’s “lunch money” for him

I've never found Academy to be the cheapest place to buy a firearm, and their service is "lacking".

As for the ATF, they're doing their level best to drive every FFL out of business. Their agents don't even understand the rules, but their going to enforce them to the last period. I did have to laugh the last time I filled out the purchase form. They've included the "pick your own gender" section in it now.

That’s a shame, but it is coming from the top down. Damned democrat TYRANTS !
