The drive is beautiful. Very "country", yet not that far from busy Rt. 222. Not far from a big Cabela's and Cigar World if you're into them! The new site in Kempton is great. One thing I found is, that if you're a gun builder, this is a fine place to get parts & such. But there's not a lot of finished guns for sale, it's not like you'll see racks & racks of ready-to-go guns. It's only about 5 miles up the road from Dixon's, so everyone stops there, too. Worth a visit!

Yep, some of the best shooting bags, powder horns and accessories can be found there. Dixon’s ml shop will have almost everything you need also.
