I was in need of some magazines but didn't have them in the Fresno store so Jiro took the time to call 3 different Turners and is having them sent to Fresno. The firearm I purchased was on sale saving $50 nice bonus during these trying times. Thanks again Jiro. I'll attach a picture once I receive my new pistol.

    559 Armory: Unprofessional, Predatory, and Utterly Disgraceful Business Practices…read moreI recently attempted to complete a firearm purchase at 559 Armory, only to be met with egregious overreach, blatant opportunism, and a complete disregard for customer rights and basic fairness. Due to a minor name discrepancy between my prior purchase record (under a nickname variant) and my current identification--fully documented and legally updated--the California DOJ indicated that the dealer retained discretion to proceed with the transfer. This is standard procedure in such cases, allowing responsible dealers to exercise reasonable judgment and facilitate lawful sales. 559 Armory chose instead to categorically refuse, citing internal policy preferences that appear rooted more in personal or political bias than in any legitimate compliance concern. Rather than honoring their role as a licensed firearms dealer committed to upholding Second Amendment rights, they elected to block the transaction entirely--despite the firearm never leaving their inventory and no actual restocking or handling being required. Compounding this refusal, they then imposed a staggering $300 restocking fee on the full refund of my prepaid purchase (including additional magazines I had legitimately acquired). This fee is patently excessive, punitive, and--based on California regulations limiting such charges in firearm transactions--potentially unlawful when no genuine restocking occurs. The result: I was denied my constitutionally protected right to acquire a means of self-defense, lost significant funds to an unjustified penalty, and received zero meaningful assistance or accommodation from staff who seemed more interested in retaining profit than serving customers. This is not the conduct of a reputable firearms retailer. It is the hallmark of a business that exploits regulatory gray areas for financial gain while cloaking itself in selective compliance. Their website touts "lowest fees and pricing" and "best customer experience," yet my experience reveals the opposite: predatory fees, arbitrary gatekeeping, and contempt for paying patrons. To prospective customers in the Central Valley and beyond: Avoid 559 Armory at all costs. Their practices are not merely inconvenient--they are unethical, anti-customer, and fundamentally at odds with the principles they purport to support. Seek out dealers who demonstrate genuine professionalism, transparency, and respect for the law and their clientele. One star is generous; zero would be more accurate if the platform permitted it.

    My husband and I visited this store for the first time and were surprised by how we were treated…read morebecause of the reviews. Upon arrival, we were buzzed in, which was fine. However, once inside, we were greeted by a dog before seeing any staff. Unsure of where to go, I called out for assistance. My husband has a very real fear of dogs due to a traumatic childhood experience in which he witnessed another child lose their life from a dog attack. Although the dog in the store appeared very friendly, my husband remained by the door, visibly uncomfortable, hoping the owner would call the dog back. Instead of recognizing my husband's fear, the owner became extremely hostile. He aggressively told my husband to "get the F out" and "F him," insisting the dog was a service animal. When I tried to explain and apologize, I was also cursed at and told to "get the F out" simply for trying to deescalate the situation. I was so shaken that I nearly had an anxiety attack. This is a business open to the public, and the owner should be more mindful that not everyone is comfortable around dogs. There are respectful ways to handle situations like this. A responsible business owner should be able to recognize and respond appropriately to a customer's fear, especially when it involves an animal. This experience was incredibly upsetting and, in my opinion, handled with zero professionalism or compassion. That's just my experience and perspective but I strongly advise others to approach with caution. If the owner feels offended, he may respond with unprofessional aggression.

When I looked them up, they weren't to far from me and so decided to come by the shop and check it out. My first experience was great, and Spike helped answer all the questions I had. Although I didn't buy anything the first time, I did on my second time I came in... and again, Spike was very helpful, explained all the differences, and upgrades. Offered great advice on what to get. He did not lead with the expensive guns, but instead explained pros and cons on each. Based on our conversation, picked out what I wanted, and will now be picking it up in 10 days. So if you're looking for a great shop, great prices and no pressure, this is the place for you.

    Location: Sportsman Warehouse Fresno Date: December 29,…read more2025 Service: Online Order Earlier today, I decided to order a firearm for purchase online due to sales, and it's almost the end of the year. I went to my local Sportsman Warehouse to select and pick out a firearm. Customers be aware have your patience got on because you're gonna need it because if you either gonna pick up Ammo or starting a paperwork will be your right arm. You will be waiting in a line. They have this new system now where we have a kiosk barcode and you have to scan the barcode and check yourself in and put yourself online currently I've been reading almost 2 hours and barely budged. I'm just here to start the paperwork on my Firearm order. I strongly suggest that they hire some more people or qualify some more people to certified and doing the firearm paperwork process and distribution that is much needed. I rarely ever have to do a 3 to 4 hour wait to start paperwork for the firearm I purchase online. Btw i'm still online waiting to be her fingers crossed.

    Let me start by saying this: this is the first Yelp review I have ever written. The customer…read moreservice at the Fresno Sportsman's Warehouse was so bad that I felt compelled to warn others. I have purchased numerous firearms from this location over the past 10+ years, and never--ever--have I experienced service this terrible. They recently implemented a "new system": a digital waitlist. When I checked in, I genuinely thought it was a joke. I was 6th in line with a projected wait time of FOUR HOURS. Four hours -- being sixth. That makes absolutely no sense. I asked the woman behind the counter if my phone was correct. With a straight face, she responded, "Maybe... might be a little less." She then explained that once your name is called, you supposedly get a 30‑minute grace period to check in. Based on that information, I went to grab a bite to eat nearby while monitoring the waitlist. After an hour, my phone still showed a 3‑hour wait, so I headed back anyway. While driving back, I received a notification that I was second in line, although the app still claimed there was a 45‑minute wait. Then -- as I am literally pulling into the parking lot -- I receive a notification that I was marked as a "NO SHOW" and kicked off the list. How is that even possible? I assumed this would be easily fixed. Surely, if I explained the situation, someone would understand. I was very wrong. The employee behind the counter could not have cared less. He told me the store closed in two hours and that because I "missed" my turn, I'd have to wait again and that they "might" get to me. There were 4-5 employees behind the counter, yet everything moved at an unbelievably slow pace. The staff was rude, condescending, and dismissive. The only bright spot was a very professional and kind manager who stepped in and moved me to the front. I truly wish I had his name because he was the lone example of what customer service should look like. Unfortunately, that only paused my frustration. The employee who handled my transaction then did everything possible to avoid selling to me. He questioned my documentation, claimed it was insufficient, and even told me I'd need to purchase a $64 fishing license for it to work. Here's the kicker: The very next day, I went to a local gun shop in Clovis with the exact same documentation--the documentation Sportsman's Warehouse said was invalid. Guess what? No issues. Friendly staff. Fast service. Purchase completed. Receipt in hand. Pickup date set. This location should be embarrassed. And if corporate leadership were smart, they would investigate this store -- because I guarantee they wouldn't be happy with what they find. I understand my money may not matter to them. But if you're reading this and considering purchasing a firearm here: don't. Save yourself the time, stress, and disrespect. Think twice before dealing with the gun counter at this Sportsman's Warehouse. NEVER. AGAIN.
