Established in 1981 at 1757 Cole Street, Tuttle's Gun Store blossomed from the private collection of sole proprietor Ralph Tuttle into an extraordinary Pacific Northwest destination that utterly transcends the conventional retail paradigm. It is, undeniably, a museum first. Behind a remarkably unassuming facade—where only the word "gun" in a humble window hints at the treasures within—visitors consistently discover a veritable repository of American heritage. The aisles showcase an unparalleled, meticulously curated array of antique firearms. Breathtaking displays feature magnificent vintage Winchester rifles dating back seventy-five to one hundred years, ensuring that discerning collectors can seamlessly buy, sell, or trade exceedingly rare pieces. Ralph fundamentally specializes in historical preservation rather than the latest modern gear. Nevertheless, alongside this magnificent vintage inventory, the establishment proudly operates as a Kimber Master Dealer and retains the logistical capability to special-order almost any contemporary item. Surprises abound within these storied walls.
