I collect old historic firearms .. i was in the process of purchasing a number of them when the FFL prices were doubled on me and this came after I had purchased and received 2 rifles and had 5 In rout .. anyone who’s purchased a firearm knows it’s not really an option to cancel a shipment .. so it was very disappointing and increased the price of each rifle from 50 to 100 without notice

When GunWorld hung me out on a private party transfer by not testing me for my FSC, these guys came thru. I’ll be buying my next handgun here. Thanks guys.

Guns. Whether you love them or hate them, firearms are an integral part of our society. For those living in the Los Angeles area who love them (or simply looking for an added layer of security in their lives), Guns Direct is your source for fast, friendly, professional gun sales and services.

For a small shop, Guns Direct has big selection. Rifle enthusiasts can find a range of CA-compliant ARs, AK variants, single shot rifles, and more. There's also a wide variety of shotguns on deck, from classic pump action setups to futuristic-looking models from the set of a James Cameron movie.

If pistols are your thing, you won't be left wanting. There are several cases showcasing a variety of semi automatic pistols from brands like Glock, Shield, Springfield Armory. You can also find a healthy selection of revolvers if you want to keep it old school like Dirty Harry. If you're law enforcement, you can browse a selection of off-roster handguns which everyday CA citizens can only dream about owning for the time being.

Outside of firearms, there's plenty of accessories and extras to keep your credit card running hot. Receivers. Lowers. Optics. Ammunition. Gun parts. Cases. Slings. Stocks. Magazines. Cleaning supplies. Apparel. You go in thinking you're just getting one thing and it rarely ends up being that way.

With regards to service, the staff here really sets the standard. Everyone has thorough firearms knowledge to answer your questions and steer you towards a gun that's appropriate to your needs whether it's for safety, recreation, or both. There's definitely a welcoming vibe in the shop and no one is going to make you feel like an asshat, unless you come in acting like one.

What else can I say. Great shop, great selection, great people. Buy a firearm here in confidence while supporting a veteran owned business. They have my loyalty as a customer, I'm sure they'll earn yours as well.

These employees have poor customer service. They’ll find every way to squeeze every penny with you. While doing a PPT, they’ll take your blocked mag and attempt to break it apart just to fit more than 10 rounds so they don’t have to do the transactions. I would not recommend doing any business with the bald Asian guy. On top of damaging the mag, he was extremely rude. Never coming back to this store and I suggest you take your business elsewhere even if you’re buying from them. Stripped lowers prices were 300% above MSRP. Their gun selection is poor as well.

Best place to buy guns in the LA Area. Everyone that works here has always been professional, informative, and patient with anything I’ve ever needed. Whether buying or doing a PPT, this has always been my go-to. I’m a marine veteran also which brought my attention here to begin with and I’m sure glad I found this place. 11/10 would recommend to anyone. Plus ammo has been fairly cheaper than other places that I’ve shopped around for.

Buyers Beware!! For new gun owners or even current gun owners, Please check your firearm before any paper work is filed because they will not do it. I was sold a new broken gun, (double action trigger not engaging) went back to the shop the following business day after picking it up and they verified that the gun was indeed failing to engage double action trigger pull. The guy at the counter told me that there’s nothing they can do and to contact the manufacturer now. I was a bit disappointed since this was a brand new gun out of the box that they sold me. I guess it’s not their fault , it is mine for not checking the gun. Don’t get me wrong , the process of purchasing a new firearm here is really smooth and they’re knowledgeable and professional. But don’t expect any customer support afterwards if your new gun doesn’t work as expect it. I’m not sure if all gun shops policies\support are like that but I will not be shopping here again for future purchases.

Update 12/21/21 - I would like to say that I'm really impressed with the customer service they provided me with. The Management staff reached out to me regarding my previous experience and they took care of it for me. I really appreciate the staff's outstanding customer service and professionalism. I'm now a long term customer and will continue recommending them to my family and friends. Thank you all at GunsDirect and Happy Holidays!

P.S. I will still advise those who's purchasing a firearm to check them before leaving any shop. It's very rare , but they can be defective. And like I mention in my previous review, it's not the shops fault . These firearms are shipped from the manufacturer and one assumes they've been tested and in working order when they ship them.

Best place to purchase a weapon. As a first timer buying a gun, I went in just to ask what I need and what should I bring with me when buying while I was checking the prices. The guys explained me in details. I was given all the time to be explained to and make sure I understand. I was pleased. Super friendly staff. The second time I came there I was ready to buy. I went through a couple of weapons, the guys made sure I'm comfortable with my pick and I started the paperwork. Gun safety is important so I did study before taking the test. All was good. I was nervous but the guys really knew how to make it as simple to me as possible. We did the paperwork and I was on my way. I couldn't be happier and more pleased with Guns Direct. Needless to mention the $100 lower price I was given than at Gun World.

What you need to know about Guns Direct is that they genuinely care about their customers!

I have purchased three firearms from them and the most recent one was for a very specific purpose. I was excited to get exactly what I wanted and have always found the shop to be very friendly and accommodating despite how busy the shop always is. What happened next was such a disappointment.

I picked up my new pistol, took it to the range, and straight out of the box the thing failed! I took it back to GD and the owner personally helped me identify the problem was the ammunition. Although I was not convinced the ammo was the problem, I appreciated the personal attention and promise that he, the owner, would personally make the situation right no matter what steps were necessary. Awesome.

I addressed the ammo issue and headed back to the range. The gun failed. On my next trip to Guns Direct, Mike, the manager assisted me. He spent a lot of time deeply invested in problem-solving for me. I had already gotten prepaid shipping labels from Smith and Wesson. I was prepared to send my pistol away and be without it for up to 2 months for a problem that was not my fault. But, the guys at Guns Direct went above and beyond to save me from any headaches.

Mike held on to my pistol with a plan to deal with S&W for me or communicate with DOJ to learn about a return if they could not get my gun to work. At 10:30 that night, 4 and half hours after the shop closed, I got a call from the range where the owner and manager had fixed and fired my pistol. The owner himself took the striker assembly out of his personal protection piece and installed it in my pistol. I have since ordered a brand new S&W assembly but am able to now enjoy my new pistol only because the guys at Guns Direct thought leaving me hanging was beneath their standards!

When you buy a firearm, you want a purchasing partner who will have your back. You can never go wrong with Guns Direct because when you spend with them you're never alone. Excellent Service. Highly recommended.
