    Courtlough in balbriggan is definitely worth a look, they usually have a good selection of guns

    Yup, John sold me a safe and did the import of my rifle. One of the mods bought a shotgun from him too. It's only a small place, but he's a good guy and decent about prices.

    Give him a call beforehand, tell him what you're looking for and he'll be able to tell you what he has in stock. It could save you a trip if he doesn't have what you're looking for. His number is on the website, so I don't think he'd mind having it posted here: 087-6654469.

    If its a Perazzi your after Derek Burnet is a main dealer for them, he's also one of Ireland best shots and has been to numerous Olympics. He's based down in Kenagh, Co Longford, bit outside Dublin(1.5 hours from Dublin), but he's definitley worth a call. 0906 432245

    David Moore in Ashford is good, but takes ages to get the gun to you, but I think he gets them cheapish.
    He'd be 10 mins from hilltop in Newtown,
