They treat you well regardless of your experience and knowledge level. They help guide you. They're honest and polite. Regardless of your side on the politics of a contentious issue. Thats rare in the Bay Area. They helped me with options, they've helped me when I had a malfunction and taught me how to fix it. And they're up front and honest about pricing which, quite frankly, is hard to find competitive pricing in the bay. This will be my go to for a long time. They've been great to me. read more

I needed couple of my guns clean since I haven't been shooting in a long time. The team here was awesome and friendly. They were very professional and knowledgeable help me with some good advice. I for sure will be back to pick some interesting selection of guns from them. read more

Went in to do a PPT, Thomas helped us out, he was very knowledgeable and polite. Even explained a few things about my AR, he showed me the new KLVR system. We didn't wait too long to get the PPT done smooth in and out transaction. read more

I had enough terrible experiences with gun shops from Scott's valley and San jose that I really struggled to go deal with the "gun shop attitude" in any gun store. Eventually I checked out bullseye bishop and was very happy with the experience. No know-it-all bs, no lunatics in crewcuts trying to convince me what a badass they are. Just a nice normal customer service experience over a shared hobby. They can get busy, and it might take a while (still 5x faster than bass pro) but it's worth it. read more

You can look at things online but it's a personal service that goes with each purchase that makes the difference!! read more

Bullseye seems to be a LGS that is somewhat recommended for PPT in the South Bay and today is the first time I've been there. It's surprisingly busy for a small store but then almost all the LGS can be somewhat busy. The plaza is very small and parking can be difficult. Also be careful when you back out because you have to back out into the main street. The store is not very big and it's mostly catered towards newer guns as it has a small used/consignment section. People are nice enough and they didn't quell when you do PPT there. They don't charge extra for PPT but they do charge 3% extra for credit card. I found the price of the guns there to be slightly expensive so I wouldn't say this is a good place for deals. The form you fill out for DROS is online and you do it on your phone with a QR code. It's pretty cool but can be hard if you have a small phone. read more

Great staff and they assisted my pistol order with no issues. Paperwork process was straight forward and completed in a timely manner. Will definitely be back for my next firearm purchase. read more

Great staff, very knowledgeable, and if they can't get you what you need, they'll point you in the right direction. Always a great experience when I'm in there. read more

Smooth pick up, they are very responsible for the Firearm safety demonstration. They can also do layaway for purchasing. However, they do have 3% credit card surcharges. read more

Unlike some other gun stores these guys dont waste your time ...they get stuff done efficiently.... they are super knowledgeable... they have a good selection... are able to get items they do not have in stock...I have done a number of private party transfers and purchases with zero issues. Unless you have no other choice , do your business at Bullseye Bishop. read more

All the staff are knowledgeable, patient, kind, and welcoming. Highly recommended! The community they've built is amazing read more

Last night I spent hours reviewing the shotgun manual -- over 100 pages -- trying to fix an assembly issue myself, but I couldn't figure it out. Today I brought the gun to this store, and Brian fixed the problem in less than a minute. He is extremely friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. I really appreciated how quickly he diagnosed the issue and took the time to help me out. Excellent customer service and a great experience overall. Highly recommend this place! read more

Always a good experience to stop by. It's important support your local 2A shop! The crew at Bullseye Bishop is knowledgeable, honest, helpful, and super friendly. I've seen them treat everyone with patience and respect regardless of their experience level. read more

Have been coming here for years. Staff is always very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Great selection of products and I enjoy the club prices for ammunition. I have also had them receive ammo I have purchased online. Great place. read more

Called ahead of time to get information about a Private Party Transfer. The gentleman that helped me on the phone was extremely helpful very nice and gave me all of the information that I needed before arriving in San Jose coming from Santa rosa. When I arrived on Friday morning at 11:00 a.m. sharp there was a line of four parties. We were able to get in and out roughly 30 minutes total to do one transfer. As we waited though multiple groups began to pile up but they still processed the PPT quick and easy. It's a small shop with a small eccentric inventory. read more

California's new law requires parts ordered online to be shipped to an FFL. I chose them since their store came up as an FFL accepting gun part shipments. The way the guy explained it to me at the store was they charge per shipment (box) so if you tell the online store to shove everything in one box it counts as one transaction. It was a flat $25 fee for them to verify your CA DL name matches the name for the gun parts shipment. Overall easy experience picking up my parts, I would come back. read more

The PPT process I experienced here was fair, I was treated well. DROS is done on your phone through a QR code. My only complaint is that PPT customers get put on the back burner. Even when picking up, the employee helping me stopped halfway through the sign out paperwork to answer a phone call and left me waiting at the counter, to the point where I thought he forgot about me. read more

I was looking to purchase my first firearm right before CA decided to slap the 11% tax. Initially went to Bass Pro, but the line was insane and customer service was non-existent which prompted me to find Bullseye Bishop. Bullseye Bishop has an exceptional staff with excellent customer service and the guys here were very knowledgeable and personable to talk to so with that I decided to purchase my first firearm here. The process was efficient and seamless; didn't need to get a ticket like Bass Pro to stand behind a line. I also learned a few tips on firearms and was able to have a conversation with them while working through the process. Highly recommended for those with questions and are interested in firearms purchase. read more

Had an awesome experience! Staff was on point, and a huge thank you to JOSE for making the process smooth for a first-timer stress free. Definitely 5 stars! read more

I went to Bullseye for the first time after passing it a dozen times and am so glad I did. I purchased a rifle from them and have used their FFL service on 2 other locations. Great people, extremely knowledgeable and always take the time to help and explain any questions you may have. Try them out! read more

Bullseye Bishop - Sig Sauer P365 customized with Radiant arms - Guns & Ammo Near Me - San Jose, California

Great group of guys were very knowledgeable and hooked a brother up with great prices on ammo and two weapons Brian , Alfredo and the guy who wrote me up we're all very friendly and chatted up some good info and memories was glad to find a gun shop that still behaves like a gun shop and not a comic bookstore After dealing with rude personnel at two other gun shops, it was a breath of fresh air to go to bull's-eye Bishop. I have many purchases coming up in the future and I'll be sure to give them my business cause they earned it If you look at the history of users who have left negative reviews, you will see that's just who they are... For example, erin twice as many negative reviews in her history as positive sounds like just that type of person read more

Pros: - This is a small but a local business that has great service. If you are confused on a firearm that you want to purchase, the staff here will not hesitate to help you. Fun fact: Most of them are former military. - Their FFL business is pretty decent despite the license's pricing has gotten more expensive in 2025. (Meaning for online purchases, you can have them delivered here) - A whole selection of firearms for sale. If you do buy here, you don't have to worry about the 11% excise tax that is applied to firearms (This tax only applies to online purchases unfortunately). Cons: - Parking is small so you have to make sure you are able to park nearby. I suggest parking at the lot next to Walgreens and just walk there. - No shooting range. Unfortunately because it's at the heart of San Jose, it's difficult to have a range implemented to the store. Overall amazing gun store and staff. If this is your first time buying a gun then I have to say this place is amazing to do so. If you are nervous then I get it but trust me when I say these people are trying to help you as much as possible. read more

I've now bought 3 firearms here and cannot stress enough it is easily the best 2a store I've been to in the Bay. Jose and Brian always offer great customer service. Had Ethan help me pick up the latest one. And these guys just know what they're doing and give great recommendations. They also have great rates for millwork on glocks!!! Can't recommend this place enough read more

This place is great. They are Helpful, Organized, Kind, Knowledgeable place. It's great to have somewhere like this that can help beginners all the way to advance. read more

Bullseye Bishop is a must go to gun shop for everyone from beginner to expert. Great friendly staff help you find exactly what you're looking for (and maybe a few things you hadn't considered) to achieve your vision of defense. I've bought three guns from them so far and don't think I'll be going anywhere else! read more

I took time and consideration to articulate my words for this review and mention the real issues of this place oppose to personal feelings and emotions. I purchased a Glock 22 on Feb 22, 2024. My pick up date was March 3rd 2024 since that was a Sunday and they're closed I came in on the following day March 4th 2024 at 11am. When I arrived to pick up my gun they told me that I couldn't get my gun today due to certification issues with the Ca DOJ. As I asked when was the shutdown I was told Saturday March 2nd, 2024. My first issues was why wasn't I the consumer who already paid for my firearm notified about this? Days went by and there were no updates. I literally called twice everyday. Until March 15,2024 at 4:55pm, I decided to get a refund for my purchased firearm. I went to LC Action on N First Street in San Jose Ca and purchased another firearm. Aside from the long wait due to bad business and poor communication to consumers. Alfredo was the worst. Despite the bad business practice he's the only one who caused the experience to be unpleasant. I came in today to view my receipt from return of firearm at 12:15 and I was the first person on list to get helped. I left at 12:45 because I was tired of waiting. I found it amusing that he took time to answer and converse with an individual that signed his name on list 2 slots after mine. Rather than take the route of angry and aggressive because I will be labeled as a bully, I just decided to write my review. Avoid this shop but if you have to go then avoid Alfredo. read more

Unlike some of the folks giving this place a bad rating based on personal issues and expectations, I've been here twice as a first time gun owner and have had all my questions answered without feeling like a newbie--plus recommendations for any and all parts my firearm needed--AND expert maintenance advice anyone would need starting out. I've watched so much YouTube thinking I could just purchase and install upgrades myself but the moment I run into an issue with part compatibility or technical tolerance, I call in and explain my situation. The folks here know exactly how to point me in the right direction, as they've all had years ahead of me and have learned so much through trial and error with their own setups. They even helped me install parts I didn't realize were stocked (or that I knew I needed) until I gave them a call. Can't get that type of experience/advice at Bass Pro Shop.. I've had zero issues understanding what I need to know about my first gun, especially when it comes to shopping for upgrades and improving the performance of my build. Jose and Tony have saved me loads of time and money and have certainly helped optimize my purchases while avoiding all the noise online. Thanks to Bullseye Bishop, I'm a proud owner of a Glock 19 Gen 3, happy as hell. Definitely sticking to this shop for my next build. read more

Bullseye Bishop - My CA compliant platform - Guns & Ammo Near Me - San Jose, California

Asked the staff before Thanksgiving if there'd be a P365 deal--got a flat 'No,' but they hyped up an ammo promo for Black Friday. Showed up Friday: huge P365 deal (thanks for the heads-up), but the ammo? SOLD OUT. Feels like a bait-and-switch. This shop turned my Black Friday into a scam Friday. read more

I've been to BullseyeBishop multiple times now, and every visit gets better. These guys know their stuff. Jose helped me customize an AR-15 build--he walked me through every step and offered advice that actually made sense for my budget and needs. Super knowledgeable and patient, he made the whole process easy and enjoyable. Their pricing is fair, but the real value is in their customer service and expertise. Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned shooter, you'll be taken care of here. read more

Been wanting to visit this shop for a couple of weeks but haven't found time to make it to that part of town. I finally made it in and I could say these guys rock! Like other firearms and ammo stores, this shop is wiped clean of 9mm also but I was able to pick up a few boxes of 9mm for home defense. No FMJ for the range in stock yet but I hope this shortage will be over soon! Anyway, I couldn't help myself and picked up a couple of goodies on my way out such as an ammo crate and Trijicon HD night sights ($165 plus tax). I didn't have my pistol with me but one of the associates generously offered to help me install them if I wanted to drop in again. I'll have to take him up on that offer since I plan on returning to pick up more accessories for my babies. Loved how easy going these guys were, appreciated how their shelves weren't completely emptied out, and enjoyed my overall experience. I'm a fan! read more

Save your money and don't waste time with these cl0wns. I should've spent more time researching but figured going to a small store like this would provide friendlier expertise and plus i thought the prices were about the same (they said it was for the gun i was buying). I was wrong. They were rude, arrogant and dulishonesr. If you drive a couple miles further to Bass Pro Store, you'll a heck of lot more expertise from their gun shop personnel (these guys knew their guns), professional and the prices are 15% cheaper. The gun I bought was more than 20% cheaper. At bulleyes, the one I bought had a small knick and when I pointed it out, the guy just said, 'yeah.' That's it. Also, they didn't lie only about the price (said they're all the same price cuz of popularity) but after taking my DL for the background check, they forgot to give it back to me. So did I until I got home. I called them but they swore they gave it back to me. I knew they were lying so I gave them an out by saying, if they happen to find it somewhere, if they could call me. 10 days later, a day after I reordered a new DL, they called me stating their NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR found it in the parking spot in front of their store. After 10 days and on the ground outside, no less? Ridiculous, yeah, right. When I went to pick it up, I checked all possible stores and they said no, not true. Then i went in and again the 3 guys in the store said they found it outside when the 4th guy who was not privy to the conversation came in and admitted the employee who initially took my card told him, he forgot and had it in his pocket the whole time! I told them I wasted $35 to replace my card and instead of reimbursing me, they'd only give me credit for a $25 pack of bullets. This place is a joke. read more

All the guys at BB are bad ass guys that knows their shit! Make sure to make your next purchase there, no BS with A+ Service...

Been here different times before the pandemic, after the pandemic, and recently. They are very nice folks inside and willing to talk to you. They have a decent selection to pick from. I would definitely go back. Still haven't left a good review yet so I thought I would leave one now. read more

Another review from a multiple order customer. The team here is great and my dealer of choice. I gave them my wishlist and BAM they got it instantly, even though a TRP Operator is extremely hard to find... they did it, I adopted it and moved it to its new forever home. From getting my wish list to my son's birthday present... these guys are great and get the highest recommendation I could give. Thanks again Bullseye Bishop team for the great service. See you soon! read more

Friendly staff, good prices. This is a small shop, but there were 3 people behind the counter helping customers. I was immediately helped. Definitely recommended read more

The best customer service I received while purchasing my first firearm. I would highly recommend anyone to this shop. The customer service and price is comparable to bigger retail stores but you don't have to deal with the long lines. I was able to secure a 5% discount because I bought it during Father's Day. Definitely will be returning for anything I need. I'm tired of dealing with the long lines at other stores. read more

Staff is very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Have questions? Ready to purchase? Just looking? This is a great place to go. Super highly recommended. If they don't have what you're looking for, they'll find a way to get it. read more

Jose was extremely knowledgable and patient. He walked me through the entire process, starting with the FSC license, and I ended up going with a Daniel Defense M4A1. Also many thanks to Ryan who helped install the KingPin. read more

I'm a relative newcomer to handguns and rifles. I've been to several different shops in the area for selection, pricing, knowledge etc... my best experiences have been at Bullseye Bishop. The staff is knowledgeable, informative, treat all customers with respect, and they really do right by the customer. I've dealt with several employees here and all have been outstanding. Thank you Bullseye Bishop, I will be returning. read more
