    Thumbs down Never again with those jerks

    Only negative impressions !!
    They don't sell any gun to legal permanent residents .Any legal resident will have a clean background otherwise will be deported. Those idiots refer to the things happen at the mexican border as a reason to sell only to USC.

    If they would listen to the new and would have the intellectual capacity to understand the information those guys will find out that also a lot of buyers in AZ are US citizens who are smuggling into Mexico.


    I am a NRA instructor -have no tickets or anything else. I am spend about $5000 on guns every year for myself like rebuilding old rifles or buying new guns.

    They were extremely rude and treated me like a illegal or criminal suspect.
    Thinking about filing a lawsuit for discrimination against them .However my business went somewhere else.

    Secondly they are selling a used Glock for 499.99 which has seen better days.
    You will get the same gun new from Davidson's for $520 brand new.

    It's seems they need to have higher prices to fund their part-time shop hours and lazy work ethics.

    Don't like them at all. Recommend Green Mountain guns or G & G guns.

    This is serious....

    Even 4473 has a area to fill out for legal resident (i551,permanent resident #).
    I've done 4473 to British citizen w/ premanent resident. It was real easy, and they passed the background check like law abiding citizens did.

    True statement-no sales to "green card" holders.
    They implemented this policy after the Virginia Tech incident.
    They do not feel it "is in the best interest of the business" to sell to anyone other than born in the USA.
    "We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason" has been used frequently and it is posted IIRC.

    Not sure what the legality issues would be, citizenship is not a "protected class" to the best of my knowledge.

    I am neither defending nor endorsing the practice, just relaying my experiences.
    The most important thing to be learned from those who demand "Equality For All" is that all are not equal...

    I have to say, as a foreign born citizen, that I was quite shocked at how easy it was for me to legally purchase a firearm when I only had a green card...

    Personally I never understood being a permanent resident. If you love this country enoigh to stay here permanently, why not become a citizen?

    Simple answer : It takes about 3-5 years to get your citizenship depending on your personal situation.

    I still have to wait one year before I can file and believe me I will.

    I have to give my orginal citizenship for this .

    Colorado is my home and I am proud to live in this country.

    This why I was so shocked .I am also a Fire Fighter and try to do my best to serve my community.

    Also as I said a permanent resident needs to have a clean record at any time.
    Legal issues which are forgiven for US Citizens can lead into immediate deportation for permanenty residents.

    I'm glad you feel that way, and I'm proud that you are seeking to become a citizen. I personally know people who will never give up their status elsewhere to become a U.S. citizen. My comment was a general one, I hope I didn't wrongly offend you.

    But private business owners still have the right to set their rules and unfortunately this one applies to you. There are other places that will sell to you though.

    I am a foreign born US citizen as well.
    It was easy and simple when I was 18. I think I bought my first firearm before I applied to become a citizen. Gotta be 18 or older to apply to be a citizen, even if my parents are citizen (by naturalization).

    Right now, they have a place you can write
