Wagram Fried Chicken-Gun Store Blow Out!!

Ahh, Phil's house of boyhood dreams! What a cool store wish there were more like it..
Pard, it's disturbing to walk in now...My first visit was about 12 years ago...there wasn't a single space to hold another long gun. 78 Browning A5s alone.
ALL handgun counters were 3 deep in guns. He had 4,000 firearms to handle. Monday he said he had 350 long gun slots empty. Come see us.

Why do you think that is?

Stuff goin' OUT faster than stuff comin' IN.................the older stuff [the guns I like] are drying up. It's a plastic gun world we live in. Phillip will go Any distance to buy guns. He will come to you and he brings CASH.
This is a story I am sure he would not mind me telling. A fella came in with 2 Winchester Model 94s to sell...He tells Phillip he has NO idea how much they are worth but Surely they Must be $1,000 each......Phillip goes to the back and comes back and paid the man.................$11,000.00. Now, how many gun dealers do you know that would do such a thing???? I know a man that is highly thought of in the gun business all over the world. I have been dealing with him for over 40 years. ...............The man above MIGHT have given that man $1,800 for BOTH..........Phillip is a man that can be trusted to deal with. He has been Here 3 times and is welcome back Anytime.

When I was in yesterday, he was tellin a fella that he had just bought 4 pre-64 Winnie’s that morning in assorted calibers. Thought I got a good price on what I picked up yesterday and going back next Saturday to pick up something else. I like it there and he was great to deal with! Definitely worth the 90-min drive.

Talked to Phil about it while I was there and talked this morning. He has taken it out of inventory and is holding it. Would have taken it yesterday, but he has a one handgun every 7 day rule - which is no biggie, great excuse to go back, plus I have a bit of trade fodder he’ll likely be interested in.
 
does the chicken place have chairs and tables
 
Yeah I was wondering if they just sat outside on the curb eating, lol.

Saves him a lot of extra paperwork given the volume of his sales.

 
Starting my day off on a positive note today 😁

Not sure if it compares, but there's a Shell station in Pinebluff, NC that serves (imo) some mighty fine gas station chicken.

I mostly stop in for the gizzards, when I'm on the way back from Southern Pines.
