Johnstown, but no handguns. They might have handgun ammo, but very few places do around here. They're trying to make it impossible.

You are always much better on private ran gun shops, not big box stores.

I always thought you need a gun in Pittsburg, not Philly?

Haha- middle of freaking nowhere, PA. You can damn near get 12ga, 30-30, and compound bows at every grocery store, but no luck finding handguns.

I hate pitt. Bridge into tunnel into bridge into tunnel. It's almost worse than NYC. And half the roads aren't marked.

All the places I'm planning to see this week.

Yeah, Pitt is tough to get around though. Took me an hour to find the right goddamn bridge to get across one of those rivers a few months ago.

Stopped in the gun shop today. They have a bunch of little tiny autos, and a couple huge revolvers. Only one that felt decent to me was a Ruger SR9. I could actually get a good grip on it, and the sights come up nice with just a simple three-dot. I didn't care for how tough it was to move everything though. The slide seems to have a ridiculouly strong spring, and the safety switch is a bitch to move because t's so small and out of the way and stiff. Unless I held the mag release in, the magazine dragged going in or out. Unfortunately, I still don't know anywhere to rent to shoot.
