I stumbled by accident. I went to purchase some ammo at another sporting goods shop in the Lake Forest area. After the sticker shock, I found myself driving down Lake Forest drive aimlessly. Out the corner of my eye,I saw the sign Ammo Depot! I swung around and went in. The guys were very welcoming, informative and very cost-effective. On my next range day I will be stocking at Ammo Depot. read more

Great prices, customer service, and fast shipping! Great selection and free shipping on orders over $145.

It's a small building but oh my, besides the amazing salesmen behind the counter who are always kind and understanding and down to the little guy, they have a bunch of affordable options and parts for your range toys too, they prices for its food here are also very good, besides the great selection of firearms, good prices, and good environments, the salesmen behind the counter here are beyond great! They made my experience at ammo depot. By being helping to someone who doesn't know a whole lot about firearms they are very knowledgeable but not only that reasonable too very kind very helpful great place overall and I will be doing business with them in the future! Great work ammo depot! read more

1st guy was Incompetent with mag laws. So he turned to the 2nd guy. 2nd guy completely blew me off. Said to me "How many mags do you need? I'm not even going to look up pricing unless you're going to order at least 5 mags. It's not worth it paying shipping for 1 mag." In disbelief and walked out and will never give them a penny of my money. This place can E.A.D and fail. Fuhhhhhhh this place. read more

Good selection of ammo and guns , but the service !!! Smh I wish I remembered the guys name but super annoying and rude . I have purchased a lot of firearms up and down the state and by far this was and has been the worst experience of my life in purchasing firearms. Lucky they did have a guy that was able to step in and take control of the situation. Even when I picked up the gun this place called me back and wanted me to bring back the gun to "recheck" the serial number even after it was checked 3 times by myself and the people that worked there. Needless to say I didn't go back. read more

10/10 on everything. Amazing friendly staff that feel like good friends. Prices are out of this world. My one and only go to ammo shop. I recommend them to everyone anyone who needs simple range ammo and/or high quality ammo. I drop a few hundred every time I come in the shop because how amazing this little store is. I have never bought a firearm here but they sure do have a great selection at some pretty good prices. Thank you to all the staff for always making sure I'm taken care of. read more

Fantastic company to do business with. Brittney in customer service is a fantastic person. If you are looking for gear, this is the place to go to. Highly recommend them. Will shop there again. Excellent pricing, too. Great sales, also read more

The customer service was good here. The guy at the counter was able to explain a couple of things to me without making me feel dumb.

Love this place! Great staff, very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Lots of inventory

I've been checking out local shops and stores but found the guys at the Ammo Depot to be the most helpful and friendly - great customer service read more

I visited the store and was politely welcomed by Robert. I bought a quantity of ammo and the service was great. I paid, did the usual BS paperwork that Gruesome Gavin Newsom is responsible for and left. The service was good but good grief the price of ammunition is through the roof. Post Covid the price of ammunition makes me believe that we're being gouged. read more

They have great customer service and very knowledgeable. We go there because of Robert's awesome knowledge of what my husband collect. Thank you Ammo Depot‼ read more

Easy going guys even with the hectic times we are in. Transactions i have made there have gone very well.

The poor ratings here do not reflect my experience with Ammo Depot at all, and I feel so positive about Ammo Depot I wanted to stick up for them. Apparently they didn't handle the COVID rush well and I can't speak to that, but my recent interactions with them have been nothing but helpful, professional, personable, and patient; without a hint of attitude, condescension, or disrespect. I bought my first pistol from them and used them to transfer a shotgun I bought online. I did pay MSRP for the pistol, but it was a hard to find CZ 75 SP-01 and I felt lucky to get it in CA at that price. As the FFL for my shotgun transfer they were very proactive, reaching out to the online retailer to ensure they had all their correct FFL paper work on file, confirmed the Mossberg 590 was in stock and shipping, then were in touch with me within an hour of delivery. Yes, it is a small shop (when I took my FSC test I blocked half of their gun counter) and with only two registers plus necessary paperwork it takes a while to rotate customers through. But they have always answered the phone when I call, and quoted me ammo prices over the phone as well. Some of their prices are great, some of them are not, and that's for me as the customer to decide which are which. But like I don't hate on expensive restaurants that charge more than I am willing to pay for lobster, I think it is unfair to leave 1 star reviews if their prices on an item aren't as cheap as I want. TL;DR: Nothing bad to say. Always friendly, patient, respectful, and helpful. I feel lucky to have found them and I always start my search for whatever I need here read more

I have not purchased a firearm in over 20 years, I saw their Labor Day flyer and went in. They were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. They helped me through every step. I was helped by someone different each time and would recommend all of them. read more

I was in the market for a California compliant AR-15 rifle, and the team over at Ammo Depot had just what I wanted Del-Ton SXT Mlok in FDE The process from start to finish was streamlined with a very awesome and knowledgeable group of guys that pointed me in the right direction for just the right price. Long story short, if you're in the market to purchase firearms,ammo, or just general information about firearms, this is the place. I waited five years to purchase my rifle because of Commiefornias bogus laws, but in the end, I couldn't be more satisfied it was worth the wait. The manager and staff are all top-notch here. Stop by and see for yourself next time you're in the market to purchase firearms. Treat yourself, don't cheat yourself at the Ammo depot. read more

First of all, why in the hell does this place only have three stars? I read some of the reviews with low stars and it's almost ridiculous to me that you would bash and give low ball scores to A business that's trying to handle things during a pandemic what a bunch of idiots you guys are.. Anyways, back to my experience, I would give the place six stars if I could, the wait was about 45 minutes to an hour masks are required, only one person in per staff member which is actually brilliant and smart, they can't have a full store even if you're just looking while they're trying to do a sale it's common sense.. This was my second store that I finally decided to purchase my gun, they had more selection than the other place I was at along with the three other places that I called, they didn't have what I was looking for. These guys are professional, they know their stuff, and they are very thorough. . As a business owner myself I'd highly recommend these guys... I also like that they sell ammo in bulk.. read more

Called 5-6 times to see if they had the ammo I wanted. Nobody ever answered. Went in person. Waited in line for 45 minutes. Got to the counter. Out of stock. No signs, nothing telling people what they are out of to avoid wasting their time in line. Guy that helped me couldn't be less sympathetic. He also said when they are busy, they don't answer the phone. Why have a phone then?!? Horrible business practices. Zero customer service. Biggest bummer is that I can't give this place zero stars. read more

First time we went was to buy a gun. One of the employees came out and took names and phone numbers to call us back since their parking lot is so full. A woman with two small boys said, "I'm just here to buy a gift for my husband. I have these two with me and don't think I can wait. I really don't want to go to another store." At that point the guy told her if she wanted to go to another store to do so and refused to take her name or number. Second time was to pick up the gun. The owner came out and began yelling at customers that they were blocking the entrance to a neighboring business. He then berates them and tells them if they can't figure how not to block a business, they were too stupid to own a gun. We picked up the gun, since it was paid for, but declined to purchase any ammo from them. We finally got the gun. Got it home and the damned thing was defective. You think I'm ever going back to these guys? Nope. read more

These guys are awesome! I have bought ammo and one gun from them in the past, and they were always patient and not like your typical "I'm a gun salesman, so you're stupid" like you get from so many other arrogant salesmen. So I called tonite looking for my dros number, because I kept getting denied for ammo since I recently moved, and apparently now that flags you somehow in our wonderfully tolerant state of California. The guy on the phone was so nice and helped me navigate the cfars.ca.gov website to update my info and patiently helped me figure out the process so that hopefully I can feed my guns again! Go to this gun store! They are super down to earth and so knowledgeable but also humble. You guys rock! read more

My wife took a few guns that she inherited over to see what they would offer ( Bad idea). There were 3 guys going through the lot. Came back with low ball offer, which she declined and asked for the guns back. They tried to return 1 empty gun case in box. Acted like they didn't know it. Also tried to misplace one rifle in the back. These guys are super shady. Consider yourself warned. read more

Well I finally purchased a weapon I've been waiting to get for some time now. I guess the current climate pushed me to the purchase as I originally came just to buy some ammo. I think under different circumstances the store would not have been so busy but my first visit I waited over an hour and then today when I came to pick up the weapon I waited over two hours. The staff working each time were super patient and helpful with what I was looking for. I can imagine how frustrating it might be right now with the long lines but trust me when I say this is a great place to check out if you need ammo or a weapon. I'm not an expert just going off of the customer service and overall selection they have. Be safe out there. read more

Haven't been there since Covid19 started so this refers back to then. Been there many times and bought many things. Pretty good times for the most part. It's better when they are not busy and have time to interact. No issues with the crew there. It was busy on a particular visit, at the time there was a rush on guns, a few people line up at the door, things can get sorta weird. It seems like they start running the place like the soup nazi did in Seinfeld "you have 5 minutes to make a purchase decision", said in an authoritarian tone. It wasn't directed at me, but it was directed to a first time gun purchaser by the owner. Ammo prices used to be some of the lowest in town. I guess that no longer applies. If you go here during busy times might what to know ahead of time what you plan to purchase. They want you in and out as fast as possible gotta make that $$$. Next! read more

Ammo Depot have their priorities on meeting your 2nd amendment needs. They know their guns and ammunition and strive to help you get what you need while complying with all the California state paperwork requirements. The individual attention is worth waiting a bit for if you come on a busy day. A+ you guys! read more

Drove by many times and finally decides to go in. Small storefront but lots of products. Prices weren't that great and they were out of some ammo but that's a sign of the times. Wide variety of calibers. Expected different load types of some of the more popular stuff though. read more

Can't get ahold of anyone on the telephone! One person can enter when you are a family of two - not KOOOL! Ammo pricing was different from what I was quoted to my receipt! read more

Solid operation. Friendly and patient. Great Service. Thanks Marco and Daniel. ...............

What a rip-off. They are selling 500 rounds of Blazer Brass 9mm for $329 when you can buy 1000 rounds of the exact product from Target Sports USA for $367. That's the reason why you now drive by this business and no longer see a line of customer's waiting outside to get into the door. There is a great business lesson here, when you rip-off your customer's during the beginning of the COVID-19 scare, they will always remember. Oh, did I say 1000 rounds for $367! read more

Do not go here! They want $54 for 50 rounds of 9mm. I went down the street and got 2 boxes of 50 for $36 lol

Still...after more than 48 hours, no response grin Ammo Depot. My question to Brian Lundgren, owner of Ammo Depot is about the irony of his Mission Statement.... [Our customers mean the world to us! We pride ourselves in having knowledgeable and well trained staff. It is our mission to provide you with great customer service and products for a great price. So come on in and see us! Thank you to our loyal customers. The highest compliment our customers can give us is to refer their friends and family to us. We thank you for your referrals!] This is a FAIL. Read your reviews Mr. Lundgren. Now I'm one of the statistics of the horrible customer service from your business. Keep this up....your doors will soon be closed. than 48 read more

Prices are very affordable, place a bit small. Customer service is so-so, either they are serving you slow on purpose to test your patience, or it's just how they do business. read more

Ammo Depot - Specials - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Rancho Cordova, California

Being in the Sacramento area frequently, I thought I would seek out an independent ammo retailer as I am sick of the big box stores. Ammo Depot was close to my appointment for the day, so I stopped in despite seeing some less than stellar reviews here on Yelp. I was so pleased with my whole experience at the store. The guys behind the counter were friendly, helpful and couldn't have been nicer. In fact, customer ahead of me was a guy that could have received a lot of attitude in other ammo stores for being a certain "type" shall I say, but not here. The staff was super respectful and friendly to him as well. Professional all the way. They had what I needed in stock, had some advice about some other stuff, and I left a happy customer who will return and who will recommend them. Good place. read more

I ordered my M1A1 from this store and I am pretty mu satisfied the way they handled it and their customer service is superb.

In order to take the firearms test at here you have to a buy a gun from them the same day. Ridiculous. I recommend driving a little further to The Gun Range off of Watt Ave near Walmart for common-sense service where they don't take advantage of the current social climate to make more money. read more

Went to get ammo. Made mistake of stating it was for My husband and the person told me it was illegal. I told him I have my own weapons and I needed some as well. He told me it was illegal for him to sell me any ammunition because I told him it was for my husband. Even though I wanted to show him I have my own CCW with the same caliber he just said illegal. read more

If you're going to allow people in the store who are just buying ammo vs people who already paid for their goods, and have been waiting longer in line, whats the point? The point is that I can take my business somewhere else. No attitude. No arguing. Just American business culture and the power of consumers. Go where they value you as a customer and appreciate your business. Nobody should give their money to someone who doesn't understand that concept. read more

Dave, Matt and Daniel at Ammo Depot are extremely knowledgeable, professional and courteous. They always answer all my questions with patience and are superior with their instruction of handling and shooting firearms. Each of these guys are all very good at explaining the pros and cons of each firearm which makes the decision process much simpler for purchase. Their suggestions for the types of ammo for each specific firearm is also extremely helpful. The Ammo Depot in Rancho Cordova is my go to gun and ammo store due to the exceptional expertise of Dave, Matt and Daniel. They each deserve my highest recommendation. Shawn B. read more

I will not recommend this place to no body they are not helpful at all they don't take the time to help u or a less try to sell u their stuff please save your self some valuable time and go to any other place I'm pressure that u will fine a better place where u will be try with better attitude then how this people treat u read more

As a shooting instructor and hunter I go to a lot of gun stores. Based on selection, prices and service I can say this store is in the bottom tier of gun stores in the area. Stay away. Whatever you're looking for you can find it cheaper and with more knowledgeable staff elsewhere. Before I relay my experience, I will say in general that the staff was curt and short with everyone in the store. If you're looking for a gun shop without the attitude, this ain't it. Their selection is rather sparse. Mostly ARs at incredible markups that any shooter knows they could build for pennies on the dollar. Some handguns also at incredible markups. There was one bolt action in the entire store. Some of their bulk ammo is decently priced. But for my money I'd rather support one of the many other stores in the area that treat their customers better. Heck the guys at Sportsman's Warehouse give better service and know more about rifles than these folks did. Now for my story: I came in with a precision G3 MSG featureless rifle and they clearly knew nothing about them. They told me the muzzle brake I had installed was a flash hider because they lack the technical knowledge to differentiate. They also told me that the 1,000 rounds or so through the barrel makes the rifle not marketable. These barrels are rated for 10k rounds. I also had about 140 rounds of leftover .308 from the rifle. They offered me an insulting $20 for it. Yeah no. I guess if it isn't an AR type rifle they don't have the knowledge to make an educated determination. In any case, they left me with the impression that they are mainly wannabe weekend warrior types with no real understanding of the firearms market. read more

First off they don't answer the phone. I drove all the way out there from Elk Grove to get treated like crap from the young guy that works there, after waiting outside in line over an hour. He ran my name through DOJ before telling me he could not let me take the ammo I purchased because my address didn't match my DL because I moved. He told me (in a very nasty, sarcastic voice) that I needed to go home, update my address on CFARs, and come back in 48 to pick up my ammo. And, to top it off, looking at my receipt, he sold me the incorrect ammo. not only am I not going back, they need to credit my card back for the ammo they did not let me take with me, but charged my CC. read more
