How is downtown York?

You will be fine either way.

I've only been in that area during the day, but no problems there. I know there is crime there (and more at night), but not so much that I'd wait for Baltimore as my other option.

Not a bad area. The Left Bank restaurant is just North of the Strand, on George St. Best fine dining in York.

I have no idea what it's "like" but just from driving through it doesn't look much different than the non-boarded up parts of Bmore row homes.

You will be fine. I used to go the Strand all the time as a kid. Now one of my attorneys has their office across the street. You can cruise the the strip and get pulled over for going around too many times, if they still do it.

York is fine. It would make for a nice night away than going to Baltimore.

Depending on what you are going to see, let the expectation of the venue determine your choice (ie, the performance may be better because of a smaller venue, or the only night scheduled at that venue, first time performing there ever/X many years).

lol, I remember that nonsense from my teenage days. Car clubs used to cruise around there all the time and they'd ticket you if you passed the same spot 3 times :bigwhoop:

York is Baltimore in miniature except their industry seems to be thriving.

I still haven't seen that much of it though.

That is about 2 blocks from Liquid Hero. Leave early and hit up Liquid Hero. You won't be disappointed.

Both of these are easy to get to off I-83

The Gun Bunker: 60 E Forrest Ave, Shrewsbury, PA 17361

I've called and ordered colt mags for my 9mm carbine. It took them a week and the price was normal for that product.

I'd call them. They are small, but I found them friendly. Started out as a guy who took in estate guns and there used to be some wild old military stuff. Seems like a new guy, (guys?). Small but a fun out-of-the-way gun shop.

Freedom Armory: 10598 2nd Amendment Dr, Glen Rock, PA 17327

More stock, more modern, with a small range.

Minuteman · Jun 25, 2016

Awesome, exactly what I needed to know.

Thank you!

Got time for lunch today? See my thread about New Freedom, PA.

Freedom armory.

There used to be a shop in Shrewsbury, I don't know if it's still there and I can't remember the name.

Awesome, I see them now. I think the other shop was called 'Gun Bunker'; its still showing up on Google maps. Might have to swing by.

*edit* Looks like they are still in business.

Also looks like 5 years ago folks were talking about it here on MDShooters: https://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?t=62226

I used to bounce downtown at Cobblestones and frequent Haines Cigar. No good reason to go there at night unless I am getting paid to do so. Outskirts are OK- George

My colleage daugther OD and passed at York Regional.

Not between York and MD but Trops in Elizabethtown isn't far from York. Rt.30 across the river then north.
