J & S Pawn and Guns

J & S Pawn and Guns is a pawn shop and licensed firearms dealer on the first floor of 223 East Alder Street in downtown Oakland. It serves Garrett County residents and visitors who want to buy, sell or pawn items, or who need help with a firearm purchase or transfer.

Part of a Regional Group

The Oakland shop is one of several J & S Pawn stores operated by JCLG Enterprises, which also runs locations including Ridgeley, West Virginia, and Frostburg, Maryland. Having sister stores in the region is part of what you get with a group like this, rather than a single standalone counter.

Firearms Services

The Oakland store holds a federal firearms license as a dealer and gunsmith, and its published FFL listings describe these services:

• Retail firearm sales
• FFL transfers, including transfers from private (non-FFL) sellers
• Gunsmithing

Staff can help you work through a firearm purchase, and the transfer service is useful if you've bought a gun online or from a private seller and need a licensed dealer to complete it. The listings note there is no shooting range on site.

Before You Go

Maryland has its own rules for firearm purchases and transfers, so it's sensible to call ahead and ask what paperwork you'll need before you make the trip.
