I first discovered 2A Zone through Reddit while trying to get an answer to a question nobody seemed to know. Brett, the owner of 2A Zone, stepped in, offered to give me a call, and early Sunday morning he was on the phone walking me through my confusion and helping me understand the situation. Two days later, I visited their Riverside store and met with the store manager, Bobby. After a very enlightening and friendly conversation, I placed my order and left feeling confident about my purchase. Over the following 10 days, I received regular email updates -- a thoughtful touch that made me feel connected to real people rather than just a transaction. When I returned to pick up my items, Bobby made it a point to come out and say hello again, which reinforced the welcoming atmosphere. These guys truly treat you like family, and everyone is genuinely happy to see you when you walk in. The professionalism, knowledge, friendliness, and accommodating nature of the team at 2A Zone has earned my loyalty as a customer for life -- and I'll gladly be an advocate for them. THIS is the place to go. I'm genuinely excited to keep supporting such a fantastic local business. read more

I purchased my first firearm many years ago at their Upland store, and I'm happy to see they've expanded and opened a shop in Riverside. The Riverside location is huge and clean, with a great selection of guns and accessories. Restrooms were available for my kids, and they even had a table dedicated to arts and crafts to keep them entertained, along with a coffee machine for customers to use. My wife purchased a firearm here and the entire process was a breeze. The staff is kind, welcoming, and genuinely grateful for the opportunity to help. It was great doing business with 2A again. On top of that, I was happy to see that our instructor, Aegis Authority, also endorses 2A Zone. read more

Heard about 2Azone on Reddit while looking for something specific. Sure enough I found what I wanted. I called to see availability of the item but no answer. Eventually I did get a hold of someone. They confirmed availability, they helped me purchase via phone. On top of that, I asked if they can have it transferred to their Riverside location and they did. From DROS to pick up date was smooth. The guys there are chill and helpful is what I got from observing helping other customers. Answering any and every question thrown at them. And they are always busy so it made sense why it's hard for them to answer the phone. Always a steady stream of people coming and going. Glad Reddit brought them to my attention! read more

A+ customer service, especially for ppt's. Quick easy and great attitude. Guys love to talk shop.

I am usually at the upland shop most of the time. Happen to be in the area for a PPT. Great service and down to earth people! Thanks for supporting the 2A community! read more

2A Zone is a bit of a drive from me but last week I happened to be in the area and I was finally able to check them out. First impressions walking in the store compared to others is that it's not glamorous or fancy. But trust me you won't care after you see their amazing selection of firearms and accessories and experience their great customer service. I had the pleasure of being helped by Jason who was very friendly and knowledgeable. No bs sales tactics or attitude. Jason asked me if it was my first time there and took the extra time and patience to show me several firearms. He also educated me on their AR Pistol services and all the customizations they offer. I came in just to browse around and ended up purchasing an XF Pro haha. They'll be worth the drive from OC to make my future purchases. Also the only gripe I had was the 3% credit card processing fee. If you're gonna visit for your first time and plan to make a purchase make sure you bring cash! read more

My dros was up on 02/24/2025. Picked up a beautiful atlas nemesis on consignment. Took it immediately to the range and every shot had a failure to eject. Obviously I was a little upset. Called 2A up and spoke to my dude Josh. Josh calmed me down and said: 1. Don't worry we will take care of you. 2. Bring it in now and we will clean it. 3. Try heavier grains. 4. We will get it up and running. I took the gun home, cleaned it and low and behold it has fired flawless ever since. F L A W L E S S The moral of the story is Josh was very attentive, polite, professional, calm, and humorous. And gave me suggestions on how to fix the issue in a non condescending way. I will be leaving more positive ratings because I've purchased like 6 guns and every experience has been extremely positive. I will name drop on those separate ratings. The peeps at 2A zone are family. They greet me like I'm some sort of celebrity but I'm reali they do that for everyone that walks in. I've been buying firearms since 1991. 2A zone is very high end. They can get anything. From atlas to Glock. read more

Jason was a great help! Very knowledgeable on how to get what I needed done. I will seek out his help again. read more

Lmaoo, Okay, Brett. Also let them know that when they come to have any work done at your shop that it will be half-assed and not professionally done. The negligence when it comes to customers spending their hard working money in your store just for their concerns to be dismissed and brushed off by counter staff when initially brought up it UNACCEPTABLE. Mind you, the refund was $80 compared to the 1200+ we spent on the firearm itself. So maybe you tried but next time, TRY HARDER! Thank you:) read more

Wow! These guys are great. And they were recommended by their competition to. Pleasant and friendly attitude, eager to help whether your spending money or not. I will definitely come back and recommend them, Thanks :) :) :) read more

I love the 2A fam! If you live on the wild side and are looking for cutting edge, hard to find weapons, LE/MIL, AR pistols, or trade-ins, this is THE spot. I just wanted to build an AR pistol to go with my AR-15 and AR-10 builds... I settled on .300BLK so I could switch barrels later, I caught a lower on sale, and Rick talked me into building two! No regrets, thanks y'all! read more

Got my FSC here, and also purchased some things in the upland location. Gets moderately busy, but tickets get seen to quick. Employees are super knowledgeable, and take their time going over information and recommendation. Their weekly sales are great too, for guns or ammo read more

I've had the pleasure of being helped by pretty much everyone at 2nd Amendment Zone, mainly Rick and Josh, and every experience has been excellent. They're extremely knowledgeable and always take the time to answer all my questions without ever rushing me through the process. As a woman, I really appreciate that they never talk down to me or try to take advantage -- they make sure I fully understand what I'm getting and that I feel confident and comfortable with my purchase. Their customer service is outstanding. They always work to get me the best deals, they have an awesome selection in store, and if something isn't available, they're quick to order it. I've purchased three handguns and a rifle here, and every single time I've been completely satisfied with both the service and the product. If you're looking for a gun store that's professional, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about their customers, 2nd Amendment Zone is the place to go. read more

The sales guy at 2A Zone are awesome. Jason is awesome and really friendly. The guys help out a lot and give great advice. Selection of handguns are good but bolt action rifles are limited. Service is great read more

Went here a couple days ago. People were really friendly and really helpful. Shout out to Houston. Help me buy my first gun. Got me a great deal with 3 mags and a bag to carry it all. It was only like 600 pricing. It was really good, got a Springfield. Overall, great experience. read more

This place is great. Nicely-stocked, great people, and really the employees make the biggest difference. I came here to meet a buyer for a PPT and several employees asked if I had been helped or if I needed anything. Super attentive but not pushy. They also had free cookies for customers, and nicely-stocked mini fridges with sugar-free energy drinks for purchase too. Seeing as how I'm on a low-carb diet, this was a welcome surprise. Overall the shop had a great vibe, happy employees, and was very welcoming. This is HUGE considering how many gun stores aren't so welcoming, or don't like doing PPTs since they don't make much with it. What they DO get from a PPT is goodwill, positive word-of-mouth, a better reputation, and great reviews like this one. :) Tarek completed the PPT in about 40 minutes with little drama or fuss, just straight up friendly competence. Tarek, you rock man! I'm inclined to come back for future PPT transactions since they have enough employees to do this on a walk-in basis, which is fantastic. It's tough to do a PPT when you have to schedule it and then coordinate with the buyer/seller. I also like that the owner is active on Reddit too. I've heard so many good things about 2A Zone, and now I know why firsthand! I'll be back this month to pick up my first .22! :) Thanks, 2AZone! P.S. There's a typo under "About the Business" here on Yelp. "We prayed ourselves..." should probably be, "We pride ourselves...". read more

Been here several times and they've been very helpful in answering all my questions, accommodating changes in requests and being great in their communication as well. If you need to buy or build, highly recommend. read more

There was an initial mixup with locating an ar15 lower i wanted but the assistant manager after seeing my feedback genuinely wanted to make it up to me. He met me in person and addressed the feedback and ended up giving me some store credit back to use. read more

Things handled quicky to answer and to see what was needed. Thank you for the reply......

Will forever be my go to store for all my 2A needs. All the staff have been very welcoming when i go into the store. They are very knowledgeable and always help me with anything i am looking for. 10/10 customer service. They have a wide variety of products that meet everyone's needs or wants. If they don't, they will try their hardest to get it for you or recommend something similar. read more

I am writing to update a review I previously submitted for 2nd Amendment Zone. My initial feedback was quite negative due to a past experience. Since posting my review, I was contacted by the owner, Brett, who expressed a sincere interest in addressing my concerns, earning my business, and ensuring that future experiences align with expectations. I am very pleased to report that the subsequent interaction with Brett was excellent. He demonstrated genuine commitment to customer satisfaction and has truly proven to be a stand-up individual. Consequently, I would like to revise my review to reflect this positive resolution and to commend Brett for his exceptional efforts in customer service recovery. My father was so thrilled with the service he ended up purchasing two firearms rather than the one we had initially wanted to purchase. Overall this was an amazing outcome and will definitely do business with 2nd Amendment Zone in the future. read more

Went there yesterday and am very impressed. Bought a few parts from them, less than $100 worth, and they installed them for free even though it took over an hour! I highly recommend them and will be returning. read more

2nd Amendment Zone in Riverside is one of the most trustworthy and respectful firearm shops I've ever visited. The staff is knowledgeable, fair, and genuinely helpful without being pushy. They offer honest assessments and go above and beyond to ensure you're taken care of--whether you're buying, selling, or just asking questions. It's rare to find a shop that operates with this level of integrity and professionalism. Highly recommended for anyone who values a no-nonsense, customer-focused experience. read more

These guys are so awesome! They definitely have a passion for their business and you can really tell. They are super helpful and knowledgeable. I've only purchased one thing through them so i don't know how prices compare to other stores but I'm willing to pay a little more for the incredibly friendly and positive experience this store provides. read more

Other attendants seemed polite, but older dude I got was kind of the typical gun store snob. Interaction was bad right from get go. Gun had some dust and residue so I asked if it was new to which he had a grumpy "Yea". Well I was also asking because they were asking $800ish for a cz 75 compact. Thought maybe it had some custom work at that price. I asked if they could price match other gun stores (big and small) and he said he'd see what he could do. They were asking $250 more than virtually every other store. He said no he couldn't do it, and didn't counter with anything. Same gun was $150 cheaper on their own website. Not sure what's going on with their pricing. Get it together. Advice is look for a reputable local FFL and order online. Gun stores are a mess in CA read more

Go to place in Riverside to get co signed guns and new guns. They also have ammo as well and gear. Friendly and helpful staff that are always there to assist. In the Brockton area in central Riverside check these guys out for firearms. read more

This place is the best. Passionate, knowledgeable, helpful and nice staff here. The manager Brett really deserves some kudos. Firearms purchases and transfers are super easy and quick here. As for their stock of guns, they have one of the best selections of firearms and accessories around, and they are willing to work with you the way no other shops will. Recently I had an issue with my p365 slide stuck in the open position when I reassembled it after cleaning and this thing would not budge. No forum or YouTube video was giving me any help. I took it into 2A and Brett had the issue diagnosed and fixed within minutes. A retaining spring for the slide release was bent out of position and in a place that made it impossible to move the slide stop down but Brett was unfazed and handled it like a pro. As he fixing it and teaching me about the internals of my weapon we discuss the design and he informs me that the 2A Zone p320 single shot frame design is what eventually got the Sig on the CA DOJ Roster and I even saw the original frame that was sent to the DOJ for approval. I write this to point out the fact that this is not just another gun shop, these folks are actively working on solutions that help improve our individual freedom and win back some of our 2A rights that have been eroded away in California by poor legislation. These folks are more than just business owners they are patriots and problem solvers. Very glad to have found this shop and I recommend them without reservation. read more
