Military Gun Supply has the best selection. I have been in there a few times and never had a problem with their attitude.

They will help you IF you ask for it. I have been in there a few times in the last few weeks. A couple of the ppl seem to be too busy to help you much and when you ask for help, they rarely stop what they are doin while they give you a very "lack of attention/ for the customer" answer. I dont plan on giving them much of my money.
This attitude really sucks because they do have a great selection of mil-surps at a good price.

+1 I've tried giving them the perverbial "second chance"; only to be greeted with yet more indifference and attitude. And here I think I'm one of the least threatening know-it-all mall ninjas I know... :biggrinjester:

Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view.

I had much the same experience the one time I visited last year. They posted an ad special on firing line for a police trade in Sig for $299. which is a great price. Since I live in the area I went by the store on the day the ad appeared looked over the few they had and decided to buy one. I confirmed the ad and price and the owner said NO he could not honor that price in the store that it would be $349. purchased in the store. I asked why and he did not have any viable reason why it was $50. higher than mail order. He acted indignant and became somewhat rude. Needless to say based on principal I passed, left the store and haven't been back nor do I intended to in the future.

Agreed with all the above statements in regards to a lack of customer service. I went in there the other day and saw several people asking about their AR's, all the guy did was point and tell price, he didnt even offer to let them look at it.

I personally found their prices to be ridiculously HIGH on their Saiga and AK's!! I found their .308 Saiga was around $569 when you can find one online for around $360 or less. As for their AK's, I found most of their guns to be junk with bent sights and wood that looked like it was beat to hell all for the price of around $400 which is again a little high for guns in this condition IMO!! I wont be going back anytime soon.
