Couple of important notes: 1 - Gordys were happy for me to go in gloveless, as all of these guns are sold as users! 2 - the store stocks a great array of oil and cloths for sale that were tested on these guns after filming!
even tho you're gloveless, it bothers me you pickup the rifles by the barrel and not the forend of the stock. equivalent of dropping the hammer on an unchambered round - won't do anything, it's just courtesy.
@@douglasherron7534 The same happens when shopping for fine watches. The staff always handle the watches with gloves and let me greasy mitts go bare. I do try to keep my hands clean, and off where I could leave prints. That said it does feel odd sometimes.
This is my local shop. The inventory is amazing but what really sets them apart is the customer service. They are the most welcoming and friendly outfitter I’ve ever dealt with. Other places act like they’re doing you a favor to get a gun off the rack. These guys will fill the counter with everything that matches your parameters so you can handle them back to back, answer all of your questions in detail, and they’re happy to do it. They’ve got a life-long customer.

I live here in Houston and have a gun that my grandfather bought used in high school in the 60's. He gave it to me 30 years ago and now I want to give it to my son for his 18th birthday. It still shoots but it needs a complete rebuild. I will be hitting them up. Thanks for your input on this business.
When they were talking about the problems run into by drying wood stocks in salt . Reminds me of a book I read by a guy whose family had been stock makers since 1700s . He said they had a warehouse full of wood . Every generation replaced what they used for their grandchildren to use . The wood they made their gunstocks from had been drying for two generations
Only gun shop I’ve ever walked in and been asked if I’d like any refreshments. When I went a few years ago I was looking for shooting glasses and didn’t even know what I was walking into other than that they came up with a Google search as one of the stores that carried shooting glasses.I was blown away by their store even the exterior is very stately looking. As I was takin a walk around the store I saw that they had original Henry and Winchester lever action rifles just sitting out on the floor in gun racks for you to pick up. when you check the tag, 20k-60k. “Yeah, just gonna gingerly put that back in the rack”. They have great customer service, and even let my girlfriend and I into the gun vault to look around.
This is brilliant, that bit at 11:24 reminds me of the FT Lauderdale boat show. All the European manufacturers were very hesitant to let me look at the boats. However, the Hatteras salesmen were all from the south and it was all smiles from them a lot of “come on in man, have a beer, take all the pictures you want” some day when I can afford my own boat, they’ll be the first manufacturer I call!
Retired U.S. Military . Have been in shops like this before and they were all in old Europe. Did not know this place was on the map. Now that said. Going to visit them soon. Great Video over the top collections.
Another great bit from Johnny! Gordy's has committed themselves to excellence. Hats off to them, especially in this the day and age of cheap and cheaper… Thank God there are still people left that appreciate the finer things - even if most of us can't afford them, it's still nice to see great stuff!
Very well done JC and team! A most enjoyable tour of an amazing place. Such dedication to the art of gun making and shooting with a dedicated well experienced staff who know their onions and are officiants of their trades and it is good to see 'Trades' being kept alive. Nice one indeed!
That Gun room and the whole place actually is indeed heaven😮… I really enjoyed this video, thanks for sharing Sir👍🏻. - Marvin, a big fan all the way from the Philippines 🇵🇭
I love Gordys, bought my Blaser from them last year including personal tour of the vault! I buy a lot of fly fishing stuff from those guys, the customer service is top notch. They also have a pretty good sale about this time every year.
Wow great shop, I live here in Houston, I will certainly visit them this Christmas 😎 it’s oil n gas money that us guys have here in houston. Thus we are blessed with the resources in many different ways!
One of the high lites of the Texas trip, then again the whole trip was amazing. And once again you guys nailed the experience. BTW you need more of that guy in the Brooklyn Dodgers cap on the channel🤪🤪
That vault probably holds what could be seen as the pinnacle of gunsmithing. The skill required to produce just one of those firearms, wow. I can't imagine what the initial investment was to open this store.
I lived in Canada for a while and thought the Bass Pro Shop win Toronto was an Aladdins cave of hunting and fishing, I have just been corrected. That vault is a dream come to life ; even if you cannot touch you would be close to guns you have only dreamed about seeing close up!
Great tour. Kevin’s Guns would make a nice video. Florida I think. Neve happen yet a shotgun store stateside solely dedicated to Brescia Italian & British S/S & O/Us, I’d drool over that. To the naysayer posters: these are works of art. 17:29
Some crazy firearms for sure the whole gunsmith dept is unbelievable fantastic customer service seems top notch just look at other customers such a range of people I’d move in there be happy for weeks at least
I used to live two blocks from that store before the store (7 years ago). It's in an incorporated town inside of Houston (Houston Heights). It's very close to downtown (1 mile) so not really a suburb of Houston. Great video. I'll have to check the store out whenever I go back.
The craftsmanship of the guns in the vault is amazing. That being said, for $100k+ it better shoot lasers or turn back time. I can probably buy a tank for less than that.
As a young man, my Father asked me to look around for a Parker, LC Smith, Remington, and a Winchester model 21. Among all my shooting buddies, only one produced an LC Smith. It was badly beaten so I did not acquire it. Decades later, I learned that it could be restored by my Father's gunsmiths friend. Unfortunately, the owner passed away and no one knows the whereabouts of the gun. Another great video Sir !
Thanks Jonny for another look at shotguns I will never be able to afford. Also Browning do make custom orders and you should have at least fondled 1 of them for us Browning owners
This was a fantastic video. Many of the shotguns were a bit pricy for the average shooter but boy can we dream, lol. I'd really like to invest in a classic side by side to pass along as a family heirloom. Thanks for the inside look. Best wishes.
I went there looking for a Krieghoff k80. They were not helpful at all. The gentleman behind the counter did not want yo get off his stool. I went to another dealer and made the purchase.
My favorite place in Houston. Also right across the street is some of the best BBQ in Tx. Did you make it by Brileys? They are about 20min from Gordy & Sons
I can't imagine having one of those shotguns. Spending 6 figures on break actions would prevent me from even wanting to shoot them. My Miroku is about as fancy of a shotgun I'd want to shoot.
Great video as usual. I only have one arm. I handled a Kofs 20 at our local shop in Mississippi. It was the best fitting gun I had ever handled since I lost my left arm 30 years ago. They opened the last box they had and it looks like a $5000 Fiddleback stock. I got super lucky. I'm now so interested in O/U, I watch all of your films.👍
It’s interesting to see the difference between hunting stores in the US and Europe. The gun room could might as well have been in the UK, but the inventory is much different. American culture is a more practical approach to hunting.
Ahhhh ain’t you lovin some Murica lads….. what you may not know is Gordys and shops like it get their inventory from large private collectors….plenty of them right there in the Lone Star. Imagine the dedication and wealth required to put together a collection worthy of GnS.
Damn, What a Amazing Gun Room, I'm sure that had Wilbur, running behind you and Wiping all your Finger prints off a 350 thousand Dollar 💲 Shot Gun, Damn
Go to Cody WY. If you want to see Guns. This one is Pretty cool Too this one has Guns from all over. Cody Museum are Mostly American Made. I don't know how Much the Museum is Worth but a Pile. FUN!!
Hey guys you should come check out the Canadian skeet and sporting clays championship. The skeet championship is being hosted at my home club. Which is also the oldest running club in the world. Would be happy to have you guys. Cheers
Well.. at least he wasn't wearing a ring or a watch. Cotton gloves don't stop moisture even if they do prevent fingerprints. However... I believe that gloves would have been courteous considering the courtesy that was extended to him.
The funny thing is as a American Taekwondo fighter, we all learned about the benifits of fake and rwal weapons if you buy a gun and your enemies never come around as planned practice with a fake gun until the real deal have to happen or you might made a board mistake...

2 - the store stocks a great array of oil and cloths for sale that were tested on these guns after filming!
Must say I was wondering - considering the Gordy's staff member was wearing the white cottons.
I was about to comment but I was smart enough to read first lol. Great video. Those are pieces of art.

This is not a gun room.... This my friend is an exquisite art room. BRAVO!!!
I've been here many many times. Selection is amazing but customer service is incredible! One of the most remarkable gun shops in the entire nation.

Man, they are some great looking guns, I'd never be allowed in. The engravings are gorgeous but it's the wood that really gets me
Thank you so much. I often travel to the Houston area for work, and had no idea.

I can’t imagine holding, much less hunting or shooting any of these. They look like pieces of art!
I can very easily imagine hunting with most of them 😂
6.15….you could hang that in the Louvre!
I am in North Idaho and didn't know about Gordy and Sons, that was impressive. Thought i would have to go to the UK to get wonderful service.
Or find that much in stock.
All gun lover are in love watching this

What an amazing collection; i dont let people touch mine without gloves. I’m astonished😮

Having a panic attack you touching them with no gloves 🫠
can only agree, probably he wants to leave his fingerprints all over the place, can not believe he was not attended to it by the staff,
Yup they where showing the guns to him using gloves and him not using it’s kind of disrespectful..
No way! I live down the street and never thought of ever going in
A whole different level of craftsmanship!!!

Thanks for showing how the other half lives 😂. What an outstanding collection of guns in one location. I will have to try and make trip there.

Can we have an episode just on that Gunroom Door? 😃
I’d be down for that 😍
This is why i love America! 2A all day every day. Those are some really nice firearms and rifles 😮.
Wow, so beautiful!! Especially the sub calibers!
It's an art gallery. That Kreighoff side-by-side with the double triggers got me going.
Would love to give one a full review one day!
One of your best videos to date! Absolutely enthralling!
My favorite place in Houston. Also right across the street is some of the best BBQ in Tx. Did you make it by Brileys? They are about 20min from Gordy & Sons
I didn’t get to briley, I had no idea they were that close!
@@tgsoutdoors also you were only about 20min from Greater Houston Gun Club
That we were aware of, but a rain storm added an extra 2 hours to the journey there, so that planned trip will have to wait for next time!
Surprised they don't make them wear gloves for handing. Finger oil is very acidic to metals
Fascinating, everyone in the store was wonderful
this is better than an art gallery!!
Those boots look great on you. Come and visit us in the USA more often. Excellent video.
Yep! Was there yesterday getting a new fly rod. How do you like the parking?

4 barrel 410 hammer gun, all your Patrick Harper dreams come true🤣🤣🤣

What a place to shoot !

Makes my heart pound. I hope these are in heaven. No words will never have

It‘s not impossible. Johann Fanzoj from Austria made the Vierling with 4 separate Ejectors
Wow just wow! What a place.
I’ve got a 50 dollar Stevens pump 12ga I got from a pawn shop. Maybe this guy can come fondle it next.
The Purdy hammergun is exquisite.
11:07 yooo that 1911 is purdy !!
How tall is this guy? Cool you visited my state from across the pond. Hope you had fun!

My Grandfather had a huge gun collection.
it's a beautiful store. I hope they validated your parking....
I enjoyed your excitement as much as mine!
I've been there! Last time I was there they had a 357,000$ break action shotgun lol
In saaaf London, the dealer comes to your lock up with a sports bag.

"BE STIILL,MY BEATING HEART.............wait a minute while i fill in my lottery numbers...
Heh heh..he said 'Hooston', so cute. Seriously, nice video.
What's the back wall made of in the gunroom?
Velvet? Leather?
It's a really nice made gun room
(And a awesome collection of rifles)
Nice 👍 iv been in a few private collections mainly historic military and what not but wow 🤩 ❤
"Height is not a factor" while towering over the man 😭
I wouldn’t want to shoot a $20,000 gun…. It is now art
Beautiful shotguns, wow!
Well.. at least he wasn't wearing a ring or a watch. Cotton gloves don't stop moisture even if they do prevent fingerprints. However... I believe that gloves would have been courteous considering the courtesy that was extended to him.
Someone's going to have to clean all of those now 🤣
NO ONE enters this room
without wearing GLOVES !!!

Ain't nothing like a Mossberg pump..😂😂

That's why They say , "that's purddy". !
I didn’t know guns that fancy existed
From the prices I hear you calling out and the room I am looking at I get the feeling $4million may be an under approximation
Very likely, but didn’t want to over exaggerate
The way you said Houston pissed me off lol
I mean where does this type of money come from? I cringe when I look at the prices at academy
