Huge store, act as a distributor for other shops. Big warehouse.
Was there looking at O/U shotguns, another guy was wanting Browning and was looking at two different lines, couldn't decide. The had 4 or 5 on the counter. He looked at the counter guy and ask if "you have this model in 32" barrels?".
"We are a full stocking dealer we have that in every length from 24 up"
Imagine the inventory in the warehouse if they stock every single variation in the Browning line.
And that's just Browning!

Never been there but their reputation extends all the way up to Lake Ontario. I recall hearing of them but couldn't recall where they were until I googled it. Should have known it was somewhere in western PA.

been there many times. huge selection and decent prices. the customer service can be somewhat schitty. some of the guys who have been there for years act like they're doing you a favor when they sell you a gun. but they probably deal with dipschits day in and day out so you'll have that. i have bought quite a few guns there including a few of their limited edition remington pumps.
my boys and me would make a day of it and hit grices and bobs army navy and eat in town somewhere. bobs is going out of business which is a bummer. its one of those old fashioned places with moldy old stuff stacked floor to ceiling. decent gun selection there too.
if you go, sign up for their mailing list and they'll send you their ads. lots of nice stuff. if you want it, they probably have it.

Every time I went to Clearfield with my uncle there were 2 stops given. Grice's and Bob's. Last time I was back a couple years ago, we went into town and I was surprised at the rude, curmudgeonly attitude of the guys behind the gun counter. Uncle and cousin tells me that the norm there anymore. THey've gotten a reputation for it I guess.

ya you can tell the ones who are schitheads. they sit on their little throne stools with their arms crossed and act like they got better things to do. the one guy in particular sits on the aisle side of the left hand main counter.

Their inventory of new and used guns is usually among of the best around but they’re not real customer friendly. I always feel like I’m imposing to ask anything of the guys behind the gun counter. Prune juice and stool softener might help ‘em!

Yeah I know who you mean There used to be a guy back in the second room who always managed to tell you how important he was as a range officer at his gun club . I mean he NEVER EVER failed to bring it up in the course of the conversation. Now he was annoying to say the least.........

Only bummer is there used to be a room with used shotguns.......now it’s a rack. Great store. If we are on the same page it was Browning/Winchester closeouts. Dinged new guns, things like that. I bought a Sporting Clays gun out of that room. It was a demo a Rep. Took to a big shoot. $1800 gun cost me $1200. It had 2 very small dings in the buttstock, look like ring/watchmarks. Suited me perfectly, it's not pristine so I won't put the first mark on it. Do not, ever, try to haggle. They get pissy if you try. On new, regular price guns, they are pricey. I have went there to finger a gun I was interested in, then buy it local for less $$$💩

I have ordered a lot from Grice. Very good place. I especially loved them back when they had all the special run Remingtons. As a matter of fact, UPS just delivered a shotgun from them today.
