At one time there was New Orleans Arms, may still be there in The Quarter. IIRC I visited it exactly once, prices were sky-high IMO but I was young and dumb back then (now too, according to My Bride, grin).

For a possible price-&-quality yardstick, Lynton McKenzie (!) was associated with them at one time.

I was there in 1998, I remember looking for gun stores and not having much luck. If I recall there were a few pawn shops but not much else.

Stick with music and oysters, can't go wrong there.


My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.

I lived there during the 80's and Gretna Gun was a good shop. A google shows they are still in business (since 1948). Can't say what they are like now, but back then the couple (IIRC) running it were good folks. Remember they had the only pair of Weatherby pistols (22-250 & 308) that I had ever seen together. They were big into IHMSA at the time.

You don't need to "bring beads" to New Orleans. It's Mardi Gras season. Catch all you want.

Before any of you get any ideas, my lovely wife and daughter will be with me in NAWLINS and both are Classic gun fanciers and excellent shots! Need I say more!
