Nic and the entire crew are top-notch. Every time I walk in, I'm greeted with a welcoming, friendly attitude, and they're always ready to help no matter what I need. Whether it's answering questions, giving solid advice, or tracking down something hard to find, they go above and beyond. If they don't have something in stock, they're more than willing to order it and make sure you get exactly what you're looking for. It's rare to find a shop that combines great customer service, deep knowledge, and genuine care for their customers the way they do. I've got nothing but great things to say about Coastal Ordnance--highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy gun shop.

Undeniably the best gun store in San Diego at this moment. HUGE shop with an amazing selection…read more Everything priced extremely competitively. Nice selection of aftermarket parts such as grips, trigger upgrades and optics from the go-to brands. Now let's talk about what sets them apart from the others. The answer to that is SERVICE. The staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Unlike many other gun stores, the staff here actually approach you and ask what they can help you with instead of you having to flag someone down. I've only been here a handful of times but it feels like I've known Nic, John and Henry for ages. That's how friendly and personable they are at Coastal Ordnance. Keep up the great work, everyone! I hope you guys thrive and stick around forever.

Being a 15 year weapons instructor I can tell you that if you are not following range rules and proper standard operating procedures, you will be corrected. At the end of the day, they are doing their job. There was a muscular guy, white guy there with a beard that has always been very helpful. I have never had any issues.

His sense of humor helped ease any nerves, and he created a comfortable environment to ask questions and learn. He broke down safety fundamentals in a way that was easy to understand and made sure everyone felt confident handling a firearm by the end of the class. I walked away feeling much more informed and prepared. Highly recommend this class for anyone new to handguns or looking to build a solid foundation in safety and handling

He also has fantastic taste in music and I enjoyed hanging out in the lobby listening to his playlist. Bonus points that the owner is a San Diego local as well, so you can support your community here. I'd highly recommend checking this shop out.

There's still a decent selection in stock, and things can be ordered for you if needed. The guys working are so knowledgeable and will definitely take care of you.

It's one of those lots with tiny spaces that the enviro-nannies in the city planning board required, hoping that it will force everyone to buy a 2005 Nissan Leaf.

I live two minutes away and this the closest DSG store to me…read more I have to agree with the previous Yelpers and their reviews that customer service here is not the greatest. I've been coming here since this location opened years & years ago and this past year or so... service has changed. The staff isn't as friendly, they seem annoyed when you ask for help and when you do need assistance, *most* of them are no where to be seen. The selection also has gone downhill since they're always out of stock in certain sizes and I wait a couple weeks and still, no new inventory. The value is quite pricey for most things. I don't but certain brands from here since I know I can get the same thing at the outlets. I use to shop here more often but not as much now... it's just so different. Plenty of parking in the lot though so no issues there.

Purchased a thermos from the Carmel Mountain Ranch location yesterday and returned the next day…read moreafter trying it once with water because the design didn't work well for us. We requested an exchange, not a full refund without reason. Manager Barbara refused the return and was very rigid about the policy, despite the item being purchased less than 24 hours earlier. The interaction felt dismissive and not customer-friendly at all. Very disappointing experience compared to the level of service I expect from DICK'S Sporting Goods.
