A buddy of mine just started working there, if anyone's interested I will pass on his name, he will take care of you without all the BS...
Firing Line were asses to my wife!
I'll admit I get a little overprotective when it comes to my wife, but she's put up with my crap for 17 years and I lover her more than life itself. However...
We dropped by the Firing Line to check out a Springfield EMP for my wife. I was looking for a set of grips for my Valor (no 1911 grips to be found there) and left her alone to ask questions. She inquired about the action, safety, and capacity and the guy behind the counter suggested she "read a book about guns" before buying one.
If she hadn't ripped him a new one, I would have. Those were legit questions!
Show me the safety. Is it single or double action (being it looks like a mini 1911)? What is the capacity - single or double stack?/
Perhaps those a$$hats should "read a book" on customer service!
Geez that pisses me off.
Yea no thanks, piss poor customer service, watched the guy behind the counter flirt with some girl about nothing gun or range related for 5 minutes before being shot down then decides to come help me, by then I told him nevermind ill go somewhere else. Ill stick to CC or the shootist.
I"ll keep MY FIREARMS and MY MONEY, you keep your "CHANGE"
I haven't been there in quite awhile due to bizarrely hostile customer service. One guy in particular always struck me as being a couple sandwiches short of a picnic. After shooting at their range, I tried to pick up some +P ammo for my M&P .45 (Cor-bon, I think), and the guy behind the counter told me that I should check to see if it was safe to shoot the ammo in my pistol. No problem, I told him, its for a brand new M&P. He then proceeded to go on a five minute rant about how I didn't know anything about guns, and how it would serve me right if my gun blew up in my hand. By the end he was actually shouting
So yeah, long story short, tried to buy some ammo there, got yelled at by a psychotic employee, haven't been back since. I will say, however, that the guy with the British accent was very cool.....if I'd been able to deal with him exclusively I'd probably still be going there.
Returning to this thread to say that I am a member there, been going there pretty regular for over 10 years, and have never seen or heard anything like what is being reported.
I make it a point to stop in there when I'm on that side of town to look around. I don't get hassled by anyone, nor am I completely ignored if I am looking for assistance.
Their prices are higher than a lot of other places, but they are a business and can price their stuff anyway they want. That being said, I don't need to spend my money there if I can find what I am looking for somewhere else at a cheaper price.
I've bought a couple of guns there and I tend to peruse their consignment section a lot.
Just my $.02. By the way, good meeting you the other day, Sneakerd!

That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
You too pal! I have seen the gamut as far as FL pricing. Some of their new current manuf guns are high retail. I have also seen and bought a screaming deal or 2 (in my opinion), with plenty in between.
you calling me a liar boy?Originally Posted by sneakerd

be honest Oneguy... did you have ANYTHING PD on you or do they know you as a LEO?
one of my former professors is APD and he has no issues there... because they know he is PD.
but as far as their knowledge of gun laws and customer service... the place could vanish and I wouldn't miss it.
I Will drive past it 3 times to go to another shop.
Nah- just saying I haven't experienced what others have reported here. Trying not to be a shill!
