Good selection of firearms. Took my certificate test here and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Prices a bit higher than Turner's but the experience is SO much better than the Torrance Turner's. Ugh. The Norwalk Turner's is great however. If you don't want to drive there, CAP is the place to go. read more

All clean and beautiful, excelente administration. Best place to visit and get your supplies ready.

I am not 100% sure that I Have been here. lol. I am sure the service is great and they look to have a lot of section. The value is priceless given the anti first amendment State. read more

I have purchased two firearms here a few years apart. When you find what you want on their website it's best to email them for the current prices and availability. Extremely professional, courteous, and knowledgeable staff. Their prices beat competitors. A+ experience. Would highly recommend giving them your business. read more

Love love love this establishment. This family business is an absolute gem, the staff is very welcoming and knowledgeable. Bill is my favorite!!! As a girl who felt intimidated going out on my own and looking into becoming a gun owner for my own home safety reassurances, I can honestly say I am so thankful to have found a place like Cap Tactical. I was able to take my test here, no appointment needed. Buying a handgun here was very smooth and professional, they offer a very nice variety of handguns and riffles; nice variety of accessories aswell! Any recommendations they give you are solely for your best interest, It's refreshing to get that side of someone in a business. Anything you could need for your first visit to the range is sold here. Everything is reasonably priced. I cannot recommend this place enough. Parking is fairly easy to find. read more

CAP Tactical Firearms - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Lawndale, California

Went to store to buy gun. And saw the price on display for 850. The rep said its cause we put a red dot on it. I said said i want the one online. The rep said its cause your looking at a non ca compliant. I showed him the screenshot and he proceeded to say thats the plain gun no red dot. Thats what I wanted the other rep stated those are 799. Then the rep that was helping me said "we haven't used the website in 3 years" . But failed to mention it until I called him out and showed them the site. Terrible business sense. He said the website is not in your favor.. I know I know its a gun store but if this was a first customer experience, this store won't last this 2026 economy. Thanks read more

This place is great! Dealt with Will you walked me thru the process of buying my second handgun. A nice stainless Springfield Armory 1911. Great price and set me up to take my test which I aced 30/30. Wasn't that good a student growing up. Didn't have to wait and was not rushed. Turners and Bass both suck compared to working with a small business like Cap Tactical. read more

Professional people work there, they know their stuff. Highly recommended! Although I didn't get my license overall I feel satisfied with the service. read more

First time buyer. Really didn't know what I was in for as far as the process to even acquire a firearm, HOWEVER.. I can't remember their names but they are son & father and they were a great help. They guided me through the process EVERY single step of the way and I haven't ever felt this comfortable, especially that they are veterans and I am simply a novice so it really meant a lot and their kindness and knowledge goes a long way. Their core values really show in their demeanor and character when dealing with customers and the value of the firearm itself wasn't as much as I thought. Price was right, firearm was perfect fit and just an overall great experience. I will be going to them for any and everything firearm related. read more

CAP Tactical Firearms - They even packaged my firearm with my name in it and guided me through everything that comes with it! - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Lawndale, California

It's a small mom and pop type of gun stores that I love to support. They had a good range of firearms for purchase and the team is very friendly and knowledgeable. Will be back for additional purchases. read more

Awful service and Will is especially bad. Bought a new sig P320 from them which had a trigger issuer that I found from day one of shooting it. Brought it to them to discuss why I was sold this firearm that clearly feels wrong. Will told me "Just send it back to Sig and they'll fix it." When I told him I was annoyed with the fact that there was no inspection on their end before selling to me, and now I have to go and wait and send this back. He then replied "I don't even feel bad when this happens to someone because it happens so rarely" Rather than causing a storm after that comment, I took my gun and left. Will Never return, and will never recommend any of my friends to go there ever again. Will is a bad employee with zero customer service skills or even care. read more

My visit was a good experience and I would recommend Visiting this store. Hands on and have a lot knowledge and understanding about firearm

I came here to take my FSC test since usually my goto place would be turners, but we all know how long it can take there lol. Anyways I was able to finish everything in probably under 10 mins or so. They do offer services to laminate your card for 1.25 which I highly recommend if you do not have access to a machine to keep that paper card safe. read more

Have purchased three firearms from Cap. No issues. A few years back they had some primers at a fantastic price so I left work to go pick them up. When I got there I was told it's only one box per customer. I told Bill that I left work and hour and a half early to make it down before they closed. He bent his rules for me and allowed me to get the two boxes I came in for. read more

Great place, all are friendly and patient. Went to a few other spots before purchasing from here. They actually answer the phone and gladly take a walk in. I ended up getting an amazing deal on a riffle with a red dot that they were out of stock of so they had an order placed for me. Prices seemed to be fair with some weapons and better with others. Clean store and good parking. Will be the one and only stop for me and my wife. read more

What's going on here?! Friendly, welcoming service? Check. Knowledgeable staff? Check. Great selection of firearms and accessories? Check. All under one roof! Who knew such a place existed. These guys are terrific. They're my new go-to for purchases. I only wish I'd discovered them sooner. read more

This is a service shop to buy weapons and ammunition. I want a pistol so I can keep it peaceful with range shooting and gun care classes first. I'm 70 next year and I get bored a lot. It's definitely a family shop and the owner is really nice. He gave me a certificate to carry/ own in Cali. So I do recommend if you have any questions or problems with Firearms you visit Frank at the shop and he'll straighten your path for you. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. read more

Went to CAP for my recent gun purchase and I'm glad I did. Purchased a pistol several months ago and had to wait hours to get waited on. CAP waited on me after a few minutes and very friendly and professional. I'll only use CAP from now on. read more

Love the service they give, everyone is always SUPER informative & kind when I ask any question, they have a wide selection of what they have in stock and incoming, I don't go anywhere else for my firearm purchases. read more

I'm fairly new and green when it comes to firearms. I'm on my second purchase at Cap and let me tell you...from the owner to his associates, you are sure to get genuine and amazing service. I went through Will on my last purchase and the gentleman is truly one of the very top service reps I've ever dealt with in any industry. Will is warm, welcoming, calm, and incredibly attentive and quiet listener. He knows what to ask if you need help and guidance getting to what's best suited for your interest and need. He's loaded with knowledge, passion, experience, and patience. He's happy to share his preferences if he was buying and also let you know the crowd favorites. And on top of it all, he's got an awesome sense of humor. truly, one of the most enjoyable shopping experiences I can remember having. Thanks so much, Will! As you can see, I love cap tactical, and my guess is you will too. read more

Great service and selection. Staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. Wasn't sure exactly what I wanted to purchase and they helped me zero in on the best firearm for me. read more

Great Mom & Pops shop good inventory and friendly service would happily return and support this small business

Came into this store to take my FSC test then straight into purchasing. I Just picked up my first firearm yesterday (6/21/2025). I went with the Springfield Hellcat Pro. Customer service at this shop is excellent. Aside from my firearm, I also purchased a Pelican gun case, headphones, eyewear, and a cleaning kit. Variety of firearms and items, accessories. Highly recommend this store. Definitely returning to this store for any of my wants or needs. read more

Very helpful, knowledgeable and have great recommendations on where to get proper training.

Great bunch of guys. Such a pleasure to do business here compared with the folks down the street....

These guys are thee best !!! Super professional, super customer service oriented with none of the standoffish , attitudinal BS that you will get at other gun stores. Easy experience taking my gun permit test , they took me through the firearm I was looking to purchase and gave great advice. 100% excellent from the time I walked to the time I walked out. You can tell these guys value their customers and honestly I don't care what kind of business you are dealing with nowadays, that is heard to find. Highly recommend read more

We originally came here about 8 years ago when we first considered a firearm. We had taken the gun safety classes and tested a few models at Firing Line Huntington Beach before settling on a Sig Sauer. Bill is extremely knowledgeable and talked us through the gun buying process. He pointed us to the Sig p226 M25, the California version of the standard Navy Seal issue. He also walked us through the complex firearm registration process as well. The state took the full 30 or so days to grant the license but we were able to complete the purchase. As for the standard how does a business treat blacks and women question? Bill and his wife treat you with respect, regardless of race and gender. You won't feel an impression you are being talked down to. He was very patient when my wife was making the decision to make our first purchase. read more

Everyone here is super friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Great selection on hand and I was even able to get lots of help in special ordering an oddball item I've been hunting down for years! Strongly recommend stopping by and avoiding hours of waiting. read more

Keeping this review short and sweet! Lol Had a very good experience with CAP Tactical. They are also pretty up to date on their Instagram page and will reply to messages/comments usually within the day. Parking: never had any issues finding parking here. I would recommend them for sure! read more

I went down the street to CAP after a bad experience at another major sporting goods/gun store down the street. CAP was friendly, attentive, and they had what I needed (Glock Magazines) at a fair price. They will be my go to from this point on. read more

Found this cool place while I was looking for a service weapon. They have an amazing selection and the staff is always so helpful. After striking out at other locations, I was able to find it here. Great prices, awesome service and a wealth of knowledge. This is now my go to place. read more

I rarely get on Yelp to write reviews but my experiences at CAP Tactical have been so great that I had to get on here and share. This is the number one gun store in Southern California hands down. Customer service is outstanding! I'm always greeted and treated with respect. Questions are answered in a polite manner and these guys/gals are all top notch. Lots of knowledge and very helpful. I'd recommend this place for experienced and first time gun owners. I've purchased all my firearms and most of my ammo from this place and their prices are unbeatable, in a time when other stores decided to take advantage and start marking up their prices, CAP Tactical remained fair. Heck I wouldn't blame them if they did but they didn't! I'd also recommend you follow them on Instagram to keep up with their latest inventory. read more

See all

Bad encounter/timing. Tight operation. Their service is great amongst employees however not the owner. Got hassled/profile out of pure suspicion even when I made my intentions clear towards his items on retail shelf read more

Patrick was so helpful and knowledgeable would highly recommend this place for your firearm needs!

As I begin my journey in becoming a responsible owner of firearms, I cannot say enough about CAP and working with the entire staff in gaining more knowledge with each time I visit. This will be my go to place ! read more

What can I say about this place? This is my go to firearms store. The demand for firearms is at an all time high. With that said, you just have to be patient. Whether that's trying to get a hold of them on the phone. Or, waiting in line outside of the store. It all really is random as to how busy they are and isn't there fault. This is the case at almost any firearms store currently. The shop itself is well organized and clean. I've purchased a couple of firearms here with no issues. The staff works as quickly, efficiently as possible and are very courteous. There's not one complaint I have about this store. Best part, they post on social media what new ammo or firearms they have frequently. My last two purchases have gone through Bill who's the owner. Very knowledgeable and willing to help. Thanks again guys for the help and painless firearm purchases. read more

Awesome store and friendly staff! Guns are as rare as hens teeth nowadays and this place has lots of the really hard to find guns and the like. Head over and support these guys! Great customers service and are a pleasure to work with. Thanks to Manny for doing an awesome job! I will return. read more

CAP Tactical Firearms - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Lawndale, California

***Long Read Ahead*** Arrived today around 11:30 am this morning and there were 3 employees, two of which were already attending customers and 1 employee which was inventorying ammo and pricing it who greeted me upon entry and let me know he would be with me once he was one with his task at hand. He asked me If I was there for pickup which I said yes to it was an online order I was picking him. During this time there were only 3 customers in the store, myself and the two customers already being attended. During this time more customers began arriving and forming a line in another line next to the one next to me. I thought nothing of it. I was FINALLY called to the counter once the employee was done pricing the what seemed to be recently arrived ammo. When I walked up to the counter he asked for my ID which I gladly handed it to him, once he looked me with in the system the following conversation ensued; Employee: "oh you still haven't done the background for this" Me: "No well that's what I'm here to do and pick up the ammo I thought it was done at the same time". Employee: "oh we still have to do your background check, you were standing in the wrong line you will have to get back in that line" Me: *Looking at the line that was out the door now because of social distancing albeit it was only 4 customers* "Are you serious I was literally the only other customer in here before anyone else that means I would have been first in that line as well" Employee: "Oh yeah well that's why the signs are on the door outside that say for pickup and background checks" Me: "Come on man you gotta be kidding me I was literally the only customer that was in here before anyone else got here your just choosing not to help me. After that happened I just said forget about the order I'll call the site I ordered from and cancelled. When the employee asked me if I was there for pickup not once did they ask if I had completed the background check, had that been in the case I would have stood in the other line and I would have been first in line. I waited patiently while this numb nuts put the ammo away patiently even though It felt like the customer should be taken care of first. While waiting for him to be ready for me I browsed around a bit and decided I was going to take some other items on this visit as well. Instead I left with nothing but disappointment and frustration, exceptions can be made, every other customer saw that I was there before them, they would have not argued the fact that "I was in the wrong line" what a poor experience I wont be going back and mind you this place has a hand full of firearms with what I saw were ridiculous prices, go elsewhere and avoid this place at all cost. read more

But if you want to wait long hours Turners is the place for you read more
