For anyone that has never shot a handgun before...you can get amazing results in just one class!!…read more The class I attended, consisted of total beginners (like me) and more experienced/actual hand gun owners. It did not matter what experience level each one of us was at individually before the start of the class...by the end of it, we all were blown away with the knowledge gained in just a few short hours with Graf. Best instructor and most patient man on the planet...Graf, owner of #freedomdefensetactical thank you for an experience we will never forget!

Bruce is great to work with on firearms. I have seen great deals on guns online and contacted Bruce…read moreto get an honest opinion (which is rare these days). I used Mansfield FFL to ship my rifle from GAB. Also,Bruce will also tell me what he has in stock but is not pushy, so I never felt intimidated to purchase. I have even taken my wife with me and let her try a few handguns for fit and comfort. Bruce didn't have what she was looking for this time. She was looking for an easy slide to rack but all those in stock were too difficult, so he recommended a different. However, not in stock but personally call when he has in stock so she come hold the pistol and make sure it works. She also purchase a beautiful homemade cutting board from the shop. Highly Recommend Mansfield Arms!!!

Bruce is the real deal--a great American, incredibly knowledgeable, and one of the friendliest owners you'll meet. His store is fantastic, with a selection that is consistently the best in town.

You never know what you'll find--sometimes there are real rare pieces and specialty items that you just don't see elsewhere. Please also check out his website mansfieldfirearms.com where you can find great deals This place has that classic local shop feel, but with standout stock and service that punches way above its weight.

I've been to this shop several times: once for a sale they hosted on gunbroker.com, once for a…read moreprivate party transfer, and a 3rd time for a titanium nitride plating job on a barrel. My overall experience in all cases was a positive one. Pricing seems to be extremely competitive (only $65 for TiNi plating of a pistol barrel), and it is extremely obvious that the business cares about the satisfaction of the customers (if only this could be said about most other FFLs out there!). My main point of contact there has been Sam (friendly and professional at all times, without fail), but all the other owners/staff of the shop have been very cool guys to deal with as well. It should be noted that the shop is extremely small, and they have limited inventory (firearms and accessories) on display, but I believe they have quite a few goodies for sale in the back. They appear to specialize primarily in custom work and gunsmithing, but the firearms for sale that they do have on display are all nifty higher-end (e.g. Colt Python) and/or heavily customized pieces (e.g. Benelli M2 with cerakoting, fluted TiNi bolt, etc.). Whether you're looking to add a shade of individuality and flair to your cohetes, or are simply interested in enhancing their practical qualities, you owe it to yourself to make a trip to this shop. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

My experience with Central Texas Gunworks was honestly shocking…read more My girlfriend and I ordered a firearm that was originally quoted to arrive in about 10 days. Instead, the order took over six weeks to arrive. Frustrating, but we were patient and waited. When the firearm arrived, my girlfriend went to pick it up. The store advertises closing at 6:00 PM, and she arrived after work at 5:55 PM. The gun was paid for so this was simply a pickup. When she arrived, the employees were already outside sitting in their cars getting ready to leave. She politely asked if they could go inside and complete the pickup since it was still before closing. Instead of helping her, the employees laughed at each other and joked about whether they were going to do it, then told her to "just come back tomorrow." She explained she had rushed there after work and arrived before closing. They claimed the credit card machine was broken, which was irrelevant because the firearm was already paid for. The worst part about this, the store owner Michael, sat and listened. and never lifted his head from his lap. Despite arriving before the posted closing time, and after waiting six weeks for an order that was supposed to take ten days, they refused to help her and continued dismissing her request. She was laughed at and treated with complete disrespect. This wasn't just inconvenient, it was unprofessional and humiliating customer service. If your business advertises that it closes at 6:00 PM, customers should be able to expect service until 6:00 PM, not be turned away at 5:55 by employees who have already decided they're done for the day. After a six-week delay, the least a business could do is treat a customer with basic respect. I hope this is addressed because no paying customer should be treated this way.

One of the cheaper options to use if you need an FFL. Although they only call you once when your…read moreitem arrives so it's kind of easy to miss out pick up. Best thing to do is to call when delivery is made to make sure. I used this as a transfer once a while back and they don't have text or email updates when your transfer is ready which would have been nice. I also went here recently for just the TLC shooting qualification. The instructor Mike was really helpful walking through the process. For people that are less experienced in the range they will get taken care of and instruction if needed to keep the range safe. I did have to listen to an insurance sales pitch even though i did take the full class here. But that just seems like a norm these days.
