Has anyone visited Handi Heaven yet
« on: October 07, 2009, 08:18:22 AM »
Just wondering if anyone here has visited the Handi Heaven in Alabama? Think it is in Gadsden Alabama ( a Pawn shop?).

Anyway I will be going down to Ohatchee this weekend to visit and see a property.  Thought I would stop in there and maybe add to the family.

Do they have a website?  I'm assuming that they specialize in H&R Handi Rifles?

Gadsden isn't that far from me.

Thanks,

He's probably talking about B & B Pawn & Jewelry. I bought several guns from them but had some really bad dealings with them and will never again set foot inside the store.

I bought a couple of ARs from them one they showed me and gave me a price on then when I went to get my trade item and returned they switched guns on me from the one I had agreed to purchase which I did not realize until the paperwork was done as I didn't look at it again until our transaction was complete.

On the other the gun in the rack had a magazine in it. When he got the box for it there was another mag in it and the sales guy boxed it back up (came in a cheap plastic hard case) both mags were in the case. I then set it on the counter and began a discussion about buying yet another gun and while I was talking they took a mag out behind my back and failed to latch the case back otherwise I'd not have noticed. The mag was laying on the counter so I put it back and returned to my conversation with my back to the case yet again. It was yet again taken from the case and again they failed to close the case so I noticed the open case and checked. They lied to my face saying they had never put a second mag in that case and that I had no clue what I was talking about. We had a rather large and loud blow up. I'd not deal with those crooks again if they offered to give away free guns.
