So far so good I am not done with the process yet so here's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna leave a review hopefully I can leave it up and not change it at all because I have had a wonderful experience I went to a gun show on December 1 and we actually sought to pieces that we purchased And as we wait for the checks to come back I have to say that I saw the same exact piece at another table for $50 less over at the show but I went by the other table 3 times trying to give him a fair chance not one person greeted me not one person said hello not one person even raise their butt or their eyes out of the seat that they were sitting in to see that there was a customer interested in purchasing something right away the total opposite of the experience that I had with RED RIFLE At red rifle I was greeted I was cared for my husband and my two kids had exchanged names with the two men helping us by the time we left and the experience I was so genuine and it made me choose them instead of going back and getting an AR for $50 less And when someone that's not too rich can choose this it's defInately to say something about these folkS. Hopefully the appointment and the pick up goes as smooth as everything so far so good I am definitely going to be one of the gals who is a Ongoing customer of these folks probably for a lifetime read more

Jack and Red Rifle is AMAZING!!! Very trustworthy and knowledgeable. Years and years of experience. Knows his guns. I am a 53-year old semi-retired CPA. Bought my last pistol, Colt 380, 29 years ago in 1989 after I was mugged. Then, did some range shooting with my son a few years back and now into it again. I bought a Sig Sauer P226, Nitron 9mm, CA approved. Jack tested me to get my firearms certificate and while I passed it, he quizzed me on the answers I missed to make sure I knew all of the correct answers. My son and I took a 45 minute gun safety class in the past but I still learned A TON from Jack when I picked up the Sig. I learned the 3 step sequence to make sure a pistol is unloaded, avoiding muzzle swipe, and how to take control of the pistol to make sure you manage it as opposed to it managing you. He also knows all the rules on California guns sales, roster guns, non-roster guns, the rules related to sales to LEO's, etc. Just an awesome, trustworthy guy with a sneaky sense of humor. I probably will not purchase any more firearms (well, I might) but if I do, there is only one place to go for a great selections, good price, and someone you can trust ..... Red Rifle!!!

Their selection of firearms and accessories is top-notch, offering a wide variety of options to suit any shooter's needs. Whether you're a seasoned expert or a beginner, the team at Red Rifle will make you feel right at home. They patiently answered all my questions and provided valuable insights, helping me make an informed decision without any pressure. The store is exceptionally well-organized, clean, and inviting. I also found their prices to be very reasonable, offering great value for high-quality products. Additionally, their commitment to safety and customer satisfaction is evident in every interaction.

Myself and my wife visited Red Rifle recently, we both owned weapons prior to our visit. The knowledge and selection available prompted us both to make additional purchases. For the size of business we were amazed of selection, the Owner had extensive knowledge of firearms and didn't mind sharing his knowledge. JACK is a very matter of fact type of person, which I personally don't mind & frankly is needed, dealing with weapons and the safety mandatory to be a responsible gun owner! I would recommend any and everyone interested in firearms to visit Red Rifle, but leave your feeling at home, and be ready to learn and start the mindset needed to be a RESPONSIBLE/SAFE/KNOWLEDGEABLE GUN OWNER!!!

This place is awesome... NOT. It's great if you want Jack's two very large dogs to jump on you and harass you the whole time you are there. He shows little control over a St Bernard and some woolly dog while you're there. I tolerated that until I paid him to remove my flash hider. He left a crush washer on, knowing that they are 1x use only. I asked him if he removed it like her was supposed to and he acted surprised that i wanted the new washer (which came with my muzzle brake) put on my rifle. I told him I didn't like what he was doing and he told me that I will let him speak and not interrupt him again. He lives at his dirty little shop and his knowledge about weapons outside is comfort zone is questionable . Do yourself a favor and find a better gunsmith. read more

I stumbled across this gem of a gun shop and couldn't be happier. I've dealt with plenty of places that make buying firearms a hassle with poor customer service, but this was the complete opposite. I came in looking for an AR and left not only with that, but also a safe and a wealth of knowledge. The staff went above and beyond to make the experience easy and informative. Honestly, I would've taken the shop dog home too if he'd been for sale. This is hands down the best place to purchase firearms, get unbeatable prices, and walk away with the confidence of knowing you're in good hands. read more

I brought in my Colt Gold Cup National Match to get a new front sight staked on since the original came off during a shooting session. Covid caused delays and after 3 months I just went back and took the pistol home since it wasn't being worked on. I guess gunsmiths are scarce. I realized I was going to have to repair my 1911. Bought a Strobel front sight staking tool online and staked on a fiber optic front sight myself.

How many other places will the owner of the store go out of his way to meet you on a Sunday and show you the ins and outs of your firearm.

Bad experience from start to finish…read more We came in for a PPT and waited nearly an hour while the staff talked with someone who wasn't making a purchase. They weren't friendly or welcoming and seemed much more attentive to regulars or people they knew. They took the seller's ID right away, but only checked my information much later. They then denied the PPT because my California driver's license was missing a space in my last name, even though my passport card and FSC showed my correct legal name. They explicitly stated that the ATF does not allow this exact situation, but four other FFLs had no issue with the same documents and I could not find any ATF guidance supporting that claim. It felt like an excuse rather than a legitimate requirement. Had I been buying directly from them instead of bringing in a $10 PPT, I doubt this would have been handled the same way. I won't be returning.

Honestly just a really solid experience. Super easy to talk to, down-to-earth, and clearly knows…read morewhat he's doing. He took a look, explained things in a simple way, and didn't try to upsell anything. Turnaround was quick, price was fair, and everything works great now. You can tell he takes pride in his work. Definitely someone I'd go back to and recommend to others.
