The person on the phone was polite and articulate to answer what I needed. The person even remembered me when I came in the store. Very rare to get this type of service. I am assuming the bad reviews are people who were educated and felt horrified about their lack of knowledge. Gun culture is an educated culture, be prepared to learn or abide by the safety standards and rules that adhere to them. Inside the store was clean and spacious areas. The department I needed was the firearms section, which was at the far end of the shop. That being said they have a wide collection of what I say good ammo that you can rely on for self-defense. What I can also say is that they do not gouge you on prices. The prices are well within reason, and they are updated ammunition. By updated I mean that they have different casings for those who know that grains and bullet type matter. That being said, getting plinking ammunition is a good to go here. You can trust the brands they have in stock and the staff for the firearms department is knowledgeable and friendly. Keep in mind the long wait is due to either education, or the long lengthy checks to get said items. That being said, pay your taxes, pay your registration fees, do your due diligence and you're out and about easy. I may bring in my gun to get checked by their smith. But TBH American Made Baretta 9mm FS is the far superior choice than the mass produced m9 and Italian made one. I don't think I need a service on my weapon in quite some time. Do your research, some things made in America, is better and not well advertised. This goes for the ammunition as well. To the dude who helped me. Thank you, man. Thank you for your service as well.

I'm still pretty new when it comes to guns. I bought a revolver a couple years ago with every…read moreintention of using it... and then I put it in my gun safe where it basically became a very expensive paperweight for two years. I finally decided it was time to stop being nervous and actually go to the range. After reading the reviews, I decided to check this place out, and I'm really glad I did. From the moment I walked in, the staff was friendly, welcoming, and very helpful. I told them it was my first time at the range, and they took the time to explain everything, answer my questions, and help me get set up. That made a huge difference because walking into a range as a newbie can feel a little intimidating. Once I got to my lane, I was only there for about 30 minutes, but I enjoyed every minute of it. My confidence definitely grew, and I left feeling way more comfortable than when I walked in. Overall, great first experience. Friendly staff, helpful guidance, and a welcoming environment for beginners. I'm looking forward to coming back for more practice -- and this time, I promise I won't wait another two years.

We all know, purchases / transfers in California are difficult and wrought with bureaucracy & nonsense. This shop, makes it simple and easy for you to get it done. In addition, they have a very nice indoor range with a VERY wide multitude of rental firearms. Aside from the good customer service & cool indoor range, they had an incredibly wide variety of stock for sale. I noticed they had VERY fair prices, like some firearms were easily $100-125 less a piece than the FUDD gun shops here in (510) Alameda County. I would say the top highlight of this gun shop was the lack of FUDD. I experienced & saw / heard zero FUDD nonsense. Just straight up good, solid, friendly customer service & plenty of great products to choose from. It's also noteworthy that they had a really good inventory of ammo for reasonable pricing. I'll definitely be spending some more money here. Keep it up guys!!

Range ammo is reasonably priced.

And that's before I even get inside. Once I do get inside the person who helped me wants to tell me that I'm wrong about being able to purchase 9 mm due to the fact that I'm under the age of 21 stating that it is handgun ammo. I don't know about other people, but I've never heard of a such thing as handgun ammo. It's for an SP5 which is a long-gun. Furthermore tells me that I can't buy .556 ammo either, because I'm not a California resident. I am on military pcs orders here and I'm legally classified as a resident. I am very familiar with the FFL's right to decline service to anybody but don't say random untrue things in an attempt to disguise the fact that you have no idea how the law works. Nevertheless the guy was nice about it, I just decided to take my business elsewhere and support people who care about other people's rights. Also, had he just looked it up in any way shape or form he would have realized he was wrong instantaneously. As a business owner, I would be frustrated with a counter employee who made my company lose out on $400.

Buyer Beware (0 stars if possible)…read more I had a very negative experience with Davis Gun Worx and would strongly caution others before doing business here. On January 29, I called about having Magpul furniture installed on my Maverick 88 shotgun. I was told it would be a simple job and take less than an hour. I dropped the firearm off in person on January 30. At that time, I was told he had just returned from SHOT Show and was busy, but to give him two days and call back. After two days, I began calling and could not get a response. I attempted to contact him repeatedly on February 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, and 11. I was only able to reach him once, and during that call he told me it would be another two days because he was still busy. I never received a return call, and all follow-up communication had to be initiated by me. I even went to the business location during posted business hours. The "open" sign was on, but no one answered the door. At that point (Feb 12th), my firearm had been in his possession far longer than the quoted timeframe with no communication, so I contacted the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department. When deputies called him, he answered immediately. However, when I called him right afterward, he became hostile and aggressive, demanding I pick up the firearm immediately because he no longer wanted it on his property. He also told the deputy that I had dropped the firearm off only a week prior and that he had informed me he needed to order parts. That is not accurate. I was told twice it would take two days, and I was never informed that parts needed to be ordered. Because of his hostility on the phone, I requested deputies be present when retrieving my firearm. When it was returned (Feb 13th), the barrel, the bag I brought it in, and the flashlight I intended to have installed were not returned with it. I will now have to go through small claims court to hopefully retrieve my property. Between the lack of communication, the extended possession of my property, the lies told to law enforcement, and the missing items, this was an extremely unprofessional and concerning experience. I would strongly advise others to proceed with caution. Communication and professionalism are essential in this industry, and that is not the experience I had AT ALL.

He is not focused on making money--he keeps his prices very reasonable and always tries to help his customers as much as possible.
