Selection is decent, but I wouldn't sell anything to them. There's lowballing which I get is the game and then there's insulting and their offers are often worse than that. read more

I'm preparing to make my 2nd purchase from Cherokee Gun & Pawn. Great selection, awesome prices & knowledgeable staff.

My wife and I worked with both Maggie and Timothy who were both really professional and very helpful in getting familiar with our shopping needs and highly recommend. read more

Good FFL PICK UP. Selling a gun good luck. Depends on who you get. Better off selling to someone you know. read more

Friendly folks Great prices. Fair fees on FFL transfers Have made purchases and transfers with Cherokee. read more

These guys are great! Very Helpful - I stopped in with a gun shipping question. They went above and beyond to help me out. Thanks! read more

Very friendly and knowledgeable. Answered all my questions and had recommendations. Oh yea, did I mention great prices.

Definitely good prices but these people are absolutely the RUDEST people I have ever met in a retail environment. You stand there for 30 mins and NO one ( not 1 of the 10 employees) will even speak. Once they finally make it to you it's almost like your interrupting their lunch break very rude and hasty. NO personality at all. Then to top it off a young teen girl is policing the parking lot with blue tape commanding that you stay 6 feet apart at all times. I might return for a bargain but I will think twice before doing it. Worse than a trip to the dentist ! read more

I was in the store several weeks ago and sold 2 rifles and 3 handguns. The transaction went well and the girl who waited in me was very helpful. I went in the next week to sell two more rifles (divorce is expensive) and the guy who waited on me refused to make an offer and then basically told me he didn't want my business. On top of that, he was very arrogant about it. I don't know his name but he refused to help me and then said they don't make offers so they don't insult their customers. so I threw out a very fair offer and he said "no."The week before there was no claim about not making offers and the girl who waited on me made an offer I accepted. So I guess the guy who waited on me the following week was either lying, incompetent, or just an asshole... I'm going with asshole. read more

If you got poor service or a rude person waiting on you, you need to look at yourself and see what you did. I've bought many weapons and completed FFL transfers with them. I've never had a rude person or anywho is not knowledgeable about what I wanted to buy from them. Great prices and willing to order any weapon I wanted. Worth the drive from Cumming. read more

Great service. Came in to get fingerprinted, kinda didn't know what I was doing, staff was super helpful and got me sorted out.

Went to pickup a transfer during covid and my spouse and I were the only ones wearing a mask. The guy who helped up understand the lines outside was very helpful, but he was the only one. The employees inside were very rude and off-putting almost like they wanted customers to be annoyed with the wait and leave. Once one of the 3 to 4 employees who were just roaming around decided to help it felt as though we were bothering them. Also has to be the slowest checkout process ever on earth like purposely. Almost as though nobody learned to use a computer although they have to use it to verify your info for anything related to a firearm sale. Lastly they upcharge you if they feel like it simply because they can. Establishment cannot make much money with the way they do business and honestly I hope they shut down. read more

Great selection and very knowledgeable staff! Like a kid in a candy store. Can't wait to go back

Updated: Staff friendliness is now "hit or miss", THEY NOW CHARGE AN FFL TRANSFER FEE, and the communication for an FFL is unreliable. (3 visits for one purchase?) It used to be worth the 20 mile drive, but this place is now a victim of it's own success. read more

"If your reviews are sounding like essays, start a blog. I can't read your life story on my phone before ordering from the menu." [Time & Date of visit]: Multiple weekend afternoons [Party Size]: 2-3 [Location/Ambiance]: Location: The shop shares a driveway entrance with Napa Auto Parts, and right before it is Canton Tire & Wheel if you are coming from the exit. Tip: For some reason Verizon cell phone signal just drops here. I think this must be a dead zone or something. Parking: Weekends, usually the lot is pretty crowded on their side. Not helping are those with "bro-trucks" I feel. But usually we haven't had any problem parking on the Napa side of the lot. Inside: With the busy weekends, this place can feel a bit cramped in this very small shop. Most of the shelves are dedicated to firearm related products and ammunition. There are a few things that might be pawn related items. But as soon as you walk in, I feel that they're primarily a gun shop first and pawn shop, way way way later. Selection: They usually have most kinds of ammunition calibers in stock, with various round counts. I've seen 50, 100, 250 rounds sometimes for popular handgun calibers such as 9mm and sometimes .40 caliber. 223 and 7.62 calibers vary. Some various types of shotgun slugs are also available. Ammo brands vary but usually Remington, Federal, and Winchesters are the norm. Some of the brands they carry are Glock, Springfield Armoury, Kimber, Ruger, Smith & Wesson, Sig Sauer, I believe I saw Spike Tactical one time, Taurus, Keltech just to name a few. They also have used guns but mostly just popular brands such as Glock and Springfield Armory; primarily handguns. My cousin even picked up a Mosin Nagant WW2 era rifle here and good condition for the low low. Pricing: Some prices might be average depending on the brand and/or model, such as in the case with the Springfield Armory XDM and XDS lineup. Other times, they are matching internet prices such as when I purchased a Ruger 10/22 takedown. Every gun show I attended wanted at least $340-50. Cherokee was selling it for $280 and an extra magazine. Ammunition is about average. Tip: I don't think they update their website much. But they do list weekly deals on their facebook page and Black Friday deals are very good. https://www.facebook.com/CherokeeGun?fref=ts&ref=br_tf [Service]: For anyone who does any firearm trading/ collecting on Georgia forums, they'll let you know that Cherokee Gun & Pawn doesn't charge for a transfer fee for guns / firearms purchased online. I think that's a big plus, cause I feel that a local shop is helping out, so why not buy some more stuff from them while I'm there. And just saying it cause it's already there, this part of the woods doesn't always cater to say...other minorities. Though I have heard comments of bigotry from other customers, I applaud that each person working the counter has always treated me fairly and with respect. {Summary}: Cherokee Gun & Pawn is the type of local business I would recommend anyone that has time to drive the distance to check out their firearm and accessories selection. I also like to frequent their sister store, Forsyth County Pawn. They aren't a big shop, but their prices are fair to great on deals, it just depends on what you are looking for. Support local business! read more

Cherokee Gun and Pawn - Driveway entrance. Pulled from Google Maps Street view. - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Canton, Georgia

See all

Everytime I come here its a hit or miss sometimes the younger workers here are rude to me will not buy no more guns from them my business is going to Appalachian I treat everybody with respect and I should be treated the same in a customer service place of business unacceptable especially when I have spent a couple of thousands on guns shopping with them and I'm really hoping it doesn't have to deal with me being a young black male that I get treated this way. read more

Always prompt and knowledgeable. Great place for ammo or guns. Very convenient to I-75 and close to Canton and some great deer hunting and fishing on Lake Allatoona. They have or can get anything you want ethically and legally at very reasonable prices. read more

I took a trip to Cherokee county because of a facebook special they had. I was surprised to see the selection in the place. I plan on buying more from them. read more

My favorite gun shop in Georgia. Every single staff member is highly knowledgeable and eager to help in anyway needed. Prices are extremely reasonable and a very helpful layaway program as well. read more

I have done business with these folks a couple of times. The first time was for an FFL transfer. The second time was for a purchase. In each case, they were professional and friendly. I will do business with them again. You might look at the place and compare it to some of the palaces built recently that are nominally gun stores. I asked myself - where am I more likely to get a better deal - the palace or Cherokee Gun. Math dictates that Cherokee Gun is the answer. As it turns out the answer is proven. I am glad these guys are there and I wish them continued success so that they will continue to be in business. read more

I'll make this simple with pros and cons, then a comment: Pros: Good selection for small shop Workers are knowledgeable Ammo is a fair price Cons: Bigger guy is a bit of a d-bag at times, moody like....you know. No haggling. Apparently the owner thinks he's hyper important. Close at odd hours, like this is someone's hobby. Basically, I bought several guns here, and a fairly expensive laser rig for a pistol (Stay away from Veridian Green Lights.) So, put gun in drawer with laser, unfired. Sits for a month, and when I show it off, laser sputters and stops. I take it back, and they send it back to company. I get new laser, same story. Month later, laser sputters. Gun is STILL UNFIRED. I take it back, they send it for repairs. I get it back a third time, same story. At this point, I say, "How about a refund, clearly at this point they have a quality problem." Now, keep in mind I spent 4 or 5 grand in about 2 months....Bigger guy (Let's call him...Dick) says, "Sorry, we've done all we can do. No refunds." Then just dismisses me. I press the issue, and Dick gives me some mumble, ignores me, and that's it. So, in summary: Don't expect service beyond "Allowing" you to shop there. They will answer a few questions to make a sale, but again, this place opens like it's a hobby for guys that couldn't get solid work elsewhere. If it were a gym, they'd be the lunkheads. On a pleasant note, a smaller gentleman made the effort to try and fix my problem every time. He wasn't condescending, nor did he think working at a country gun store made him important. Anyway, know what you want, go buy it, and leave. You'll be happy. Just don't buy accessories here because you're totally going to get treated like you have a virus if you take it back. read more

I'd read good things about these guys on several forums - good prices, friendly service, etc... Well, it all turned out to be true. I drove up from Roswell to do a firearm transfer as they don't charge a fee. Most places are $20-50! It was well worth the drive. I'd pay more in gas than a local fee just to do business with a small company that truly believes in service and building its customer base! I was treated better at CGP when I was spending ZERO money than most places spending $$$$. They make you feel right at home. Because they were so nice I did buy some accessories, which were well priced I might add. I would have paid more, but it was sure nice not to! I'll make the drive back to these guys for sure. Oh, and make sure you check them out at the local gunshows. They attend regularly. you'll find they have some of the best prices there too. read more

Went to this store on a Saturday, and it was packed like sardines. They have a decent inventory and their prices aren't too crazy. What was strange was that when we were there, the owner called and told them employees that they were to not let anyone else in and they were to just run the applications for gun purchases the next day and tell people to return. It was so strange that even the employees thought it was crazy. I watched as at least 30 or so people drove into the parking lot and were turned away at the door. When I left and drove to Hi-Caliber, all these people had simply went there. Why would you close at 4, and then turn people away? read more

I got a transfer here years ago and just recently went back for another, and bought some stuff while I was there. One thing that really sets this place apart from every other shop in Metro Atlanta is the free transfers. They have not charged a fee to do a firearm transfer for years (forever maybe), and I think that makes a very strong statement. I will happily drive 40 minutes and find some goods or ammo I can use while I'm there for this generous service. I arrived early on Saturday. It wasn't crowded but they were anticipating a surge later. This is a small shop, I would recommend getting here on a weekday if you can find a way, or early Saturday. For a small shop they seem to have an impressive variety of guns, new and used. The best thing is you will find stuff you won't find anywhere else in town. Not only that, they've got decent selection of accessories with decent prices too. Ammo prices seemed average, but they do have some surplus stuff. Their prices are good from what I saw. Used guns are definitely priced well. Happy to see a few surplus guns. The staff was attentive. They always checked to see if anyone needed help. It wasn't too busy when I was there, but I've been to many a crowded gun shop and you've got to have patience and civility. I see some people complaining, If you're going to complain, just do us all a favor and visit when it's not so busy, not Saturday at 1PM. read more

I recently needed to have a long gun shipped to an FFL in NY. David and his employees could not have been more helpful. I highly recommend Cherokee Gun and Pawn. read more

This is a gem of a gun store. Not the largest, but certainly one of the most friendly and economical. Was referred here by a friend and it has proven to be a place I will certainly give my business to. They've saved me money on magazines, loaders, ammunition, and firearms compared to other stores and even Internet pricing. They are honest, typically have things in stock where stores further south are ravaged, and are genuinely helpful and and pleasant to do business with. Highly recommend! read more

Couldn't have been more impressed. Got referred here by some good friends. The place isn't located anywhere fancy however do not judge this book by its cover. Walk in and its guns-galore. I came in on an afternoon weekday and they were pretty busy. After a few minutes I got helped out by a nice employee who answered all my questions on a 12 GA H&R pump shotgun they had. Steal of a deal at $160 brand new. Bought a couple cases of shells and snagged a sweet laser + flashlight combo which he cut me a deal on. He even installed and aligned it for me while I waited despite the crowd. I walked out spending $220 bucks with a rocking new shotgun. Bottom line, the value was there, the service was there, and I got exactly what I wanted at a price I was more than happy with. I normally balk at crowded stores but for only waiting a few minutes, it was well worth it. I'll be back for more. read more

Called ahead of time to see if they had a pistol in stock. The clerk assured me "they had plenty". I drove 40 miles to get to the store, waited for an employee to finally notice me and the very polite gentleman tried to help me out. He could not find the pistol and another employee asked what I was looking for and I told them. They said "we just sold the last one today", but we will have PLENTY in sometime later. WAIT, WHAT? I JUST CALLED SO YOU WOULD NOT WASTE MY TIME AND FUEL. YOU COST ME MONEY. SCAMMER BAIT AND SWITCH. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE. read more

They have the best prices on ammo, magazines optics. Ect. They have the lowest prices on hand Guns and long guns. I can't say enough good things about this place. My wife and I have bought several boxes of ammo. I am buying her another gun from Cherokee gun. I have checked every where including online. Cherokee gun is by far the cheapest. read more

Chip is so helpful and the AR that I purchased exceeds my expectations. I'll DEFINITELY be back. John E. read more

Recently bought a lower and was mislead went to take it back 2 weeks later paid 199$ they offered me 100$ they just lost a customer and I've spent a lot of money here never again read more

I've been coming here since August 2015 when I first moved to the canton area. Each time I've been in I have been shown courtesy and respect. Tim can answer nearly every question you may have about firearms and terry can tell you everything you need for an AR build. I've purchased several firearms from them and will continue to do so. I now live in Atlanta but will make the 45 min drive north if I get the itch. Not because the prices are great (which they are) but because I know I'll be treated well. They recently did the FFL transfer for two 1911s I bought online. I was in and out within 30 minutes and it was FREE! I picked up a few boxes of ammo to show my appreciation. Great prices on .22 ammo too. Give these guys the chance to earn your business. You will be happy you did. read more

Free FFL transfers, great selection, fair prices.... Cherokee is the best gun store in the State of Georgia.

Highly recommend for FFL transfers or buying new. I get all my transfers sent here because they do not charge a fee. Today I got the UPS delivery notification and showed up before they had a chance to log it in. They were very accommodating even though I inconvenienced them by not waiting for their call. Thanks guys. read more

I pawned my iPad they used it access to my Gmail I know this because my wife's tablet alerted me they also tore a piece of my OtterBox of course they denied it but Google told me they accessed my Gmail from my iPad while it was in their possession I think this is criminal read more

Went in there to buy a small part for my completed firearm that wouldn't cost me more than $20. The lady behind the counter was completely rude and acted like it was such a pain in the ass to sell me a simple part. Funny how she immediately changed her attitude when she saw a few hundred dollars in my wallet... read more

Feel free to "shop around" if you'd like, but Cherokee has never failed to beat the pants off of any other price for firearms... especially new, popular guns that you can't find anywhere else (not to mention they're always in stock). In addition, these are the nicest people you will ever meet, and considering this is a pawn shop where guns are sold, you have to agree, they are one of a kind. I drive from Atlanta just to go here, and I would even without the price difference. read more

I used them for a free FFL transfer. Glad I did. They were very friendly and helpful. I felt the need to buy something to repay them for their time and it was a win win. I got some ammo and another clip for a great price! read more

Found out about them from shopping Aim for Lowers and they do free transfers. That is just the beginning. These guys are great. I have done several transfers with them and have had such a good experience that I always try to spend some money in thanks for the free transfers. Jimmy is very knowledgeable and has helped me with several questions about builds I'm doing. I used to shop the huge store on South Cobb drive but they have lost there way and forgotten about customer service. Cherokee Gun and Pawn has not forgotten about the customer and does not make you feel stupid for asking questions. Great selection of guns and suppressors as well. read more

OK. They have great prices. But the staff is really knowledgeable and friendly. They stock tons of models. Have purchased [cannot admit how many in writing] guns there and always was treated well. Best local dealer for guns, period. Always my first choice. read more
