From the moment I dial…read moreup their number, I had a few FFL-specific questions in mind, and their representative answered thoughtfully, and thoroughly. Even though I hadn't ever walked into their shop, they didn't even know who I was, and I had not bought anything from them at that time... they still treated me with the utmost respect. Because of this awesome interaction, I've been saving up to pick up my dream pistol, and I WILL be ordering through Private Sector Arms. Not just because of their respectful, and knowledgeable service reps... but the fact that they are an authorized dealer for many manufacturers including Magnum Research, and Kimber (if memory serves me right). If they place the order, you can save on an FFL transfer fee as you would occur if you purchase a gun off gunbroker...etc. Also, their added integrity, knowing that they inspect each and every firearm thoroughly when a shipment arrives... rest assured your firearm will come out looking fresh. One of the many benefits of ordering thru a responsible and organized FFL such as Private Sector (and not a big box retailer such as Sportmans lol...yea I bash on Sportsman's a lot)

After being told it would be ready at a certain time (24 hours+), when I called to ask about the status and if it was ready, I was told angrily "just come pick it up. We're not doing it anymore". I picked it up and the owner tried to give me some rant about "we're not going to rush ourselves" after withholding my property for 10 minutes. This place is a joke. I took my pistol to another local shop (way more professional and welcoming, I wont say who BUT there's a great taco spot next to it) and they were able to help me right on the spot and got it done in 20 mins with respect.

The owner was hands-on, and you could feel that customer service mattered. Unfortunately, things have changed. The current customer service is poor. Staff often act like they're doing you a favor by helping, rather than treating you with respect or interest. There's little salesmanship, and not much effort to understand or support customers. I personally would have bought two firearms from them in the last year, but the lack of willingness to assist pushed me elsewhere. There's also a noticeable lack of deep firearm knowledge among some staff and no clear management presence to address customer concerns. The shop now feels disorganized and disinterested in repeat business. It's disappointing to see how far it's fallen from what it used to be.

A week later, I checked and was told it is still on the way.....holiday shipping, etc. To sum it up, I have been buying, selling (a few) and trading firearms for over 50 years and this is BY FAR the worst experience I have EVER had. Finally, I went to the store yesterday and demanded my money back and they did that. Echoing the other one star ratings on Yelp, I should have taken that into consideration. Makes me wonder how they are still in business.

I'd like to provide a comprehensive overview of my experience with this gun store, detailing the…read moretimeline of events to illustrate the operational challenges I encountered. To preface, I must express a strong reservation about recommending this store, particularly for individuals seeking to acquire firearms through an ordering process. My initial interaction occurred when preparing for a significant hunting trip scheduled for December 16th. Assuming ample time, I decided to order a shotgun from their website on November 1st, given its unavailability in-store, despite the website indicating a stock of six units. The transaction unfolded with my credit card being charged on November 2nd, accompanied by an email projecting a delivery timeframe of 4-7 business days. My concern arose when no tracking number accompanied this communication. On November 8th, I attempted to gain clarity on the order status via email, yet received no response. November 10th prompted a phone inquiry, where the individual, after obtaining my order number, assured me of an imminent arrival without providing substantial details. Subsequent efforts on November 14th to seek information via email proved futile. A second phone call on November 16th met with a less-than-enthusiastic response from the personnel, who, unable to provide tracking information, cited supplier constraints. November 22nd marked another call to inquire about my order, with a recurring assurance of imminent arrival attributed to holiday order influx. Giving the benefit of the doubt, I agreed to check again the following week. November 28th necessitated yet another call, resulting in the revelation that my order had not been processed correctly. An apology was extended, and an overnight shipment was promised, along with a commitment to a full refund if not received by the next week. December 4th saw another call, with an explanation that holiday-related shipping delays were occurring, projecting a delivery by December 8th. However, the firearm did not arrive, and the assurance of a Saturday delivery came with the inconvenience of the store being closed, necessitating a Monday pickup. On December 11th, when inquiring about the firearm's status, I received the disheartening news that it had not arrived, and tracking information was unavailable. Frustrated, I opted for an immediate refund, having reached the limit of my patience with the prolonged and uncertain process. Undoubtedly one of the most frustrating experiences I've ever had with a shop. From initiating the order on November 1st to December 11th, the entire process was riddled with unfulfilled promises and blatant dishonesty Update. I wrote this towards the second week of December, and since then I have ordered the original shotgun I want and two others from a different gun shop. Today's date 1/7/2024 I have received all three shotguns and have 2 rifles in route from a local shop in yelm
