   Correct Answer: 4 - The 2nd airgun store specializes in fine pens and shaving supplies
   
   I only just happened to stumble across this dealer while searching for info on the Brocock G6. At first, I came across a listing in the Phoenix Backpage (http://http://phoenix.backpage.com/SportsEquipForSale/699-new-brocock-contour-g6-22-caliber-air-rifle-g6-and-beech/31898158). I then searched on the dealer's name which is Penchetta Pen & Knife. Completely took me by surprise, I'm guessing it will do the same for you.
   
   Without further adieu, I introduce Penchetta Pen & Knife:
   Penchetta Pen & Knife is now a stocking dealer for some of the finest air guns in the WORLD! Tired of ordering off the internet, now local customers can come in and see some really great air rifles.

Fishy looking website. Click on their products and there are no items listed. Airguns only.

 

[blackdiesel]

I clicked on several items and there are listings.

 

[travels4fun]

It's clear they are a small store trying to expand into e-commerce. That's not fishy, it's small business trying to evolve. The home page of their online storefront has a "pardon our dust" announcement:

As I said in the OP, I only just happened upon them this evening. I plan on driving up to visit their store tomorrow. I'll provide a status update soon after.

BTW, their non-e commerce website is http://penchetta.com/.

The Brocock G6 was about $25 cheaper. Interesting what their shipping rates are and if they are able to service rifles. It's nice to know where you can take the gun when it will eventually need to be serviced. 

 

[travels4fun]

Penchetta is only a reseller so the rifle would have to be sent to AOA to be repaired under warranty. I meant to go visit them this afternoon but didn't have the time. They are way up in North Scottsdale about an hours drive from where I live. AOA is only 15 minutes. Anyhow, I noticed the price difference as well. When all is said and done, I'd end up spending that in gas just to get there and back LOL.

Hmmm. I like wet shaving, knives, pens, and air guns. Looks like a neat store.

As a man of modest means everything looks out of my budget, but if they ever opened a branch in Kalamazoo I'd stop in and dream.

I bought a Auto 5 from pancetta about four years ago. It was a great transaction. I’ve spoken with the owner numerous times since he is always helpful.

They r sponsored,(if that's the right terminology) by AGN.

This place is real, and the owner, and staff are great people. Tony doesn’t shoot half bad either!

He is a major competitor in the Phoenix area and makes it to all major events. They have a nice cozy supply of quality equipment, and accessories. He may not have a whizbang website, so don’t let that scare you away. Good people doing good business. This is one of the best resources in the state for quality knives, and I mean quality. That’s how the business started… Oh and pens too.
Sometimes if you can’t find airgun items that other retailers may not carry, these guys just might. Worth a look or a call for sure

I have heard of Penchetta but for some reason I thought that they were in FL. Guess not!

 

[intenseaty22]

Yup, Penchetta is legit. Met Tony at EBR ‘19. Dude racked up on the raffles!! Walked away with a bunch of good stuffs, Ha! I’ve actually ordered from his website before.

Lol talk about resurrection of almost 6 years. Cool to know there in that area. I head to phoenix next week for 5 days. Plan on checking out AOA. Might need to stop by Penchetta knowing there in the area.

Well known dealer (excellent service). 

People should click on the "Quick Links to our Sponsors" button at the bottom of every page. https://www.airgunnation.com/topic/quick-links-to-our-sponsors/?view=all Pretty darn good chance it is legit if they are a sponsor.

[houston]

I knew. The store has been in business for a few years.
