I'm done with Red Rifle. I brought in my M&P 2.0 slide/barrel and specifically requested V‑porting near the front sight. Instead, they cut a huge center mid‑slide/barrel port, the exact opposite of what I asked for, permanently damaging the slide and barrel. Jack's attitude when I arrived only made it worse but at the time I had patience. I also paid $85 for a simple KS7 bolt removal. Instead of just removing the bolt, they returned my shotgun fully disassembled, forcing me to come back twice because I couldn't reassemble it. I didn't need a demonstration, I ONLY needed the bolt off my shotgun barrel. Also, he claimed the bolt was aftermarket when I JUST bought this KS7 NEW. Then I bought an ATN ThOR 6 Elite from Jack. Days later, ATNcorp.com dropped the price from $3,799 to $2,595. When I called to work out a solution, Red Rifle refused to help, claimed it was "too complicated," and demanded a 20% restocking fee. No flexibility, no negotiation just "policy." Jack even said neither he nor his wholesaler cared about the manufacturer's price drop. He refunded me $3,670 out of $4,329, five days after purchase, and the scope never even left his store. When I went in for the refund, I was respectful and even addressed Jack as "sir." He still got irritated because I asked twice whether he needed my card. Then he questioned why I was calling him "sir" and whether I "didn't want to do business anymore," as if my future spending determined how fairly he'd treat me. Instead of processing the refund normally, he said he had to issue a physical check, adding yet another delay to a situation he already mishandled. Jack has also made inappropriate comments in the past about which customers "drop money" in his shop and whether a friend I planned to refer would be "the type" to spend that much. I was ready to send someone in for a full .338 Lapua Rifle setup, now I wouldn't refer anyone here. Jack starts off friendly, joking, casual, talkative; but it doesn't last. His attitude flips fast, and the unprofessional side comes out, sometimes toward customers, sometimes toward his own employees when work is done incorrectly. Either way, it affects how problems are handled. After thousands spent here - and it could have been tens of thousands more, I expected better. Instead, I got sloppy work, poor communication, and a shop that refuses to stand behind its mistakes. I won't be returning, and I don't recommend trusting them with gunsmithing or high‑dollar purchases. Lastly, Jack told me to message him on Instagram if I had questions. Today, he complained in front of other customers while I was on the phone with him that I'm the only person who DMs him "so much," and claimed he "answered all my questions" before saying I wouldn't answer any of his. None of that was true. At this point, he just drains your time and patience. read more

Excellent service, great advice and very professional. Highly recommended. Check them out.

Was looking around in yelp for a local gun shop instead of turners ans stumbled upon red rifle. I was greeted with a fluffy nice dog. Jack helped me out with questions and wasnt aggressive with me in purchasing, allowed me to try out different firearms. I couldn't make up my mind yet so I left but then I came back literally 5 or 6 minutes before they closed, apologies again Jack. Jack was very upfront and helpful and was still willing to do business and accommodate me. I recommend checking them out they have a wide variety of selections and Jack will answer any questions you have. Support local businesses I think I have now found my go to for my next purchases. Thank you jack. read more

You get a different experience at red rifle. Firearms are laid out on the table and you can go back and forth getting a feel for what is the best fit for you versus doing the one at a time thing. You don't feel rushed and the owner is super knowledgeable. They do have models in stock that are back ordered at the big box stores. Best part is Remington the giant floof you can pet while shopping read more

Great Gunshop, Jack is a cool dude and knowledgeable. Brought my Ar15 for gunsmith to remove the stock that was very difficult to remove and they got it done. 100% recommend. read more

I've only used Jack as an FFL for online firearm purchases, but he did it without any attitude or ridiculous charges. I have two custom firearm builds on my wishlist, and I will take them to Jack without hesitation when I decide to pull the trigger. His dog Remington is in the shop and is totally cool. I happened to have dog treats in my pocket the last time I visited, and I think I have a friend for life. read more

This was my first time purchasing a firearm solely for home defense and occasionally hitting the range. I did a ton of research on exactly what to buy for my situation and came across Red Rifle through Yelp due to their high reviews, so I gave it a try. Jack helped me out right away and answered a bunch of my stupid questions and was super patient and cool. He recommended some great options and helped me through the process. I can't praise him enough for being so chill and helpful, as I can imagine it's super annoying having to deal with nervous new gun buyers. I saw him being super helpful to all of the other customers in there as well, and no one had to wait long at all. He was just as chill, patient, and helpful with them as he was with me. I would definitely recommend Red Rifle and I'll be purchasing any and all other firearms or related accessories at Red Rifle in the future. Thanks Jack! read more

Jack is the man! I am starting a firearms training business and needed to purchase several training handguns. Jack understood my needs and guided me towards several quality and price friendly revolvers and semi automatics. He then helped me choose the right rifle for my own personal use. My experience with rifles was limited, so he took his time walking me through the pros and cons of each rifle available. Once I made my selection, he assisted me with customizing it. He then took his time showing me how to operate the rifle and accessories. He even bore sighted the rifle. He has a customer for life! read more

I was referred to Red Rifle by a friend and I stopped in to see Jack this evening. I was not disappointed!! His breadth of knowledge and customer service are unmatched. I don't say this lightly... I will not be going to Turner's or any other gun seller. If Jack doesn't have it in stock, he can get. Totally full service for all your gun smith needs. My next purchase will be either the Sig Sauer X Full or the Springfield Armory XDM Elite! He offers great deals on both guns, sights and accessories and if he doesn't have it he can get it!! I can't wait to see the work he does mounting my Holoson 507K!! read more
