    I've only ordered from Bud's Gun Shop once before in 2021, and I really feel like I should be gatekeeping on this business. I also placed an order today. However, in 2021 when I ordered, their customer service was exceptional … More and even now, their email correspondence regarding my order is superior to other suppliers. I like that Bud's is a smaller shop and has more of a family-owned feel to it. Their website is easy to navigate, and the staff are responsive, understanding, and kind and willing to help answer your questions. I used financing through Bud's the first time around through Monterey Financial, and it was a pleasant and seamless experience. Bud's also seems to often have products that are out of stock elsewhere and the prices are comparable to larger chain stores. Will gladly order from them again!

    An incredible store and a fabulous gun range. The gun range is very nice with good lighting and multiple target distances. A fantastic selection of firearms and accessories as well as ammunition. Pricing is really fair. The staff are very … More knowledgeable and friendly as well as very helpful. Recommend!!!!!

    I love how convenient Buds makes it for me to purchase my ammo! I appreciate all the staff and employees that make it possible for guys like me to go online and make purchases as I do. Hats off to all you guys. If I had one thing different, … More it would be to have the company email folks like me, discounts or coupons, who purchase frequently. Coupons would most likely make me purchase even more but, I don't mind. Buds is my favorite! Happy Holidays to all you folks at Buds!!!!

    Ordered a Radical Firearms rf-15 5.56/.223 on the website. Sweet deal BTW. Took less than a week for it to arrive. Went into the store to pick it up and get an optic for it. The guy at the long gun counter was super patient and as helpful … More as he could be considering it wasn't his department. I can't say enough good things about Bud's. I bought my first firearm from them (a Taurus G3C) and my first rifle as well. 10/10.

    Shopping at Bud's was a great experience. Also, their pricing on firearms are within line with other major companies. I also like the fact that they offfer lifetime warranties on their firearms for reasonable prices and offer free … More shipping with low shipping insurance. Keep up the good work Bud's. I will no doubt be shopping with you again.
