Back in the 90's through early 2000's I worked in Northern Virginia and shopped at Greentop often. They have an impressive inventory of firearms.

Greentop is the best !! When driving to NC to hunt I always try to stop and see what treasures are on their shelves . The N120 is just an example of what can be found . Chris

A history lesson.
This used to be a "Mom and Pop/Good ol' Boy" shop. They were the classic overstuffed gun/fish shop. Think 8 pounds in a 5 pound bag. Great staff/"good guys". The place was always busy.
Then they were invaded by Gander Mountain and Bass Pro mega stores, BOTH within 2 miles of their shop.
A few years back the Gander Mt closed, and the Greentop guys got their building. Now think 5 pounds stuffed into a 20 pound bag.
Same good ol' boy type staff, and over time they have built up inventory. Smokeless power always well stocked, plenty of reload supplies, primers, a really broad inventory of new and used long guns/pistols, archery gear, MEC loaders (including full line of repair parts etc). Fishing gear.
Just a d**n pleasant place to visit.

I'm lucky enough to work 5 minutes from there . I'm in there 3 or 4 times a week. We are lucky in the Richmond and Petersburg area along with Green top, Bass pro shop we got the Cabelas off 64 in the West End of Richmond. And off 295 in Mechanicsville we've got Hopkins Gun and Tackle it was opened by 2 brothers that worked at Green top for better the 30 years. A lot like the old Green top. South of Richmond in Petersburg right on 95 is Dances Sporting goods is another well stocked hunting and fishing store . Around here it's not to hard find what you're looking for. Mark

I was in there today. Been getting stuff there since 1968 when I was in college. Great used firearms selection is always a danger to my fiscal well being. Have picked up some deals, best was a used V7 Omega on consignment = bore not so good,got it for a song and now it has a Bestill 45 Brux barrel.
They have a great archery department too.
If anyone is on 95 going through it is a great visit.

Come on, My favorite part of driving from VA to NJ via 81 and then 78 is crossing into NJ!
The first rest stop says NO SERVICES! Sounds like San Francisco, crap on the ground...no Garden State here!
Every other State has their nicest rest stop at the State Line.
