Anyone have any dealings with this dealer?.

Meant to be decent enough.

Dont want to go pestering him just yet but wondering what makes he sells/stocks really

Have never bought a gun from him, but bought pretty much everything off him over the years.

He is a decent bloke to deal with, but is on the more expensive side of things compared to other dealers. After saying that he is also on a par with other dealers so it's really a matter of perspective.

He has a huge selection of guns, especially .223 at the moment, but also carries a good selection of high end firearms especially the "designer" shotguns such as DT10's, top end Perazzi's, etc.

He does a large selection, larger than i've seen elsewhere, of Swar. scopes/bins/spotting scopes, and always seems to have gear that others find to expensive to carry including a great selection of knives including cold steel.

All in all it's a good shop. My only hesitation would be the prices, but if i had money to spare/burn then there are a few things he has that i would like.

I'd echo Ezridax's comments.

Have bought a good few guns from James and wouldn't hesitate to go back. Has always had a great selection of firearms when I've wanted something. Can be pricey on some items.

Yes I second the above comments, he has a great selection but pricey.

I like buying from James cause he has best brands and he doesn't sell. I bought my first rifle of him but he's way too expensive for ammunition but best for everything else.

I got my first rifle off him a few years ago, I found him sound, I had visited nearly every dealer in the west before I bought!!

Good guy to deal with and as others have said he has a great selection.

Can be expensive yes but don't be afraid to haggle with him!
