Grabagun
Is this outfit legit? Poking around their site, I see some incredibly good deals, like the Ruger AR 556 for $479 that I referenced in another thread. Buds has that same gun for $601, and I haven't seen them that far off from other vendors before (25% more than the competitor). I compared a few other guns, and they are significantly better than Buds pricing for over half of my non-random sample.
Looking for folks who have had experiences with Grabagun. Good, bad, ugly, whatever. Are there hidden fees, or something else I'm missing?

I haven't dealt directly with them, but Texas residents do have to pay State sales tax, which, with out of state vendors is not a requirement.

Re: Grabagun
Solid!!
I have purchased the last 5+ guns from them, along with taking friends who have gotten maybe another 5, and never an issue.
Bought Scopes and Triggers as well.
No, what you see is the real price. Only issue is you are paying State Sales tax.
Their storefront is like a 400 sq foot hole in the wall. But you can order it and pick it up there. People are friendly and pleasant to work with.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Re: Grabagun
They are a good company. I have bought a couple of guns through them. They have a brick and mortar store in Coppell but they do not have a lot on display

Re: Grabagun
I'm confused. Texas residents have to pay a use tax if they don't pay sales tax, so it works out the same regardless.Jusme wrote:Soccerdad1995 wrote:Is this outfit legit?

Re: Grabagun
Awesome. Thanks for the feedback everyone!
Re: Grabagun
They are great. I live in DFW and usually pick my firearms up at their store near Beltline and 635.
Re: Grabagun
It is legit. I just buy online and then go pick up in the store when they send an email saying it is ready for pick up.

Re: Grabagun
Legit and their store is in North Dallas. Visited once. However, as mentioned the 8% would kill the sales for the locals if you are stretching your dollars. However, their pricing could be the best for local market (sellers in DFW ares).

Legit place, great prices, good people to deal with. I have made several purchases there.Soccerdad1995 wrote:Is this outfit legit?

The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

Re: Grabagun
I drive from SW Fort Worth to their location in Coppell. I have bought about a dozen guns from them in the last couple of years, about to buy a Springfield Saint rifle from them.

Re: Grabagun
They are a first class outfit. I've bought most of my guns from them. I pick them up at the Coppell store. I have also had them ship out some Ruger 10/22 25 round magazines to me in Arizona while I was here. Not a single hitch in any of my transactions.

Re: Grabagun
I have bought a couple guns from them, some ammo and magazines. They are great to deal with.
Re: Grabagun
Absolutely legit and a great place. I'm glad I didn't find them sooner or they'd have much more of my money. On the flip side, I'm upset that I didn't find them sooner. I'm close enough that I can drive by their store and pay cash and then have them ship it to my house or pick it up at the store after it comes in.

Re: Grabagun
I too rate the as a 1st Class seller. I have purchased 4 firearms from them without a hitch. I applied for their credit plan but decided to pay immediately and let it expire, so I have no opinion of that part of their business. One aspect I particularly like is having a list of FFL's for which they have information. My regular FFL was on the list, so easy breezy.
