Friendly firearm experience, I brought a rifle in that had a couple problems with (purchased elsewhere), Eric and Brian diagnosed the problems, repaired it, and cleaned it. They mounted a scope on the perfectly clean rifle as well, they took the time to explain what the problem was, the work was great and the price was reasonable.

Today, I purchased a pistol, I consider it a novelty, $100 bill Hi-Point, it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but it makes me smile! Transaction was smooth, all done on tablet, fast and easy.
