Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I originally heard wonderful things about this store.  Upon arrival I was impressed, vast selection of firearms, knowledgable staff ( so I thought) plus an indoor gun range.  Awesome right?  WRONG!!!  My first purchase was a Walther PK380.  It was reccomended to me by staff there for a small personal defense weapon.  I purchased the weapon and waited 3 days for it to arrive. 

Upon its arrival I wanted to test it.  NO FREE RANGE TIME, even when purchasing a new weapon.  Odd, but understandable.  First 50 rounds of the range ammo purchased jammed 14 out of 50.  NOT GOOD.  Switched ammo to Hornady Critical defense ( Usually $17 per box of 25)  Cost me $25 dollars there.  This jammed 12 out of 25.  I couldnt believe this. 

I talked to the manager there who had the gunsmiths take a look @ my weapon.  We discovered the hammer was rubbing against the slide causing a minor catch which resulted in the jams.  THEY DID NOTHING TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM!!!!  I was stuck with a weapon I am supposed to trust my life with that JAMS CONSISTENTLY!!! 

I then asked to trade in the weapon and purchase another due to the issue. They only offered $200 of the original $450 sticker.  I hadnt even left yet.  This place is horrible.  Completely unproffesional and I will not return and urge others to stay away also.

Everything in the store has a mark up of AT LEAST 20% higher than you can find on the net.  I will research more in advance next time to avoid this situation.
