I purchased a Staccato online and they listed this place as a vendor that they ship to. Having…read morelived in Walnut Creek for a few years, I was actually surprised to see that this place exists. It's real and they've been in business for 10 years or so. Ronnie was super friendly when I reached out to him. Apparently, he communicates via text only which is totally fine. He was able to communicate everything needed to properly purchase. I also appreciated that he texted a picture of the back of the building because the location is tucked inside of a block and hard to navigate if you've never been there before. Michelle helped me out with paperwork and she was super friendly. They both treated me very well and were very helpful when it came to helping me with my transaction. While their transfer fee is the most I've ever paid, it's important for me to support local shops like this, and because they're appointment only, it feels good to be the only person in the store. Overall, I plan to have all of my future online purchases go through this shop. This is an A+ establishment. Some tips for people considering coming here: - Ronnie is text only, but is pretty quick to respond. - The building that they're in isn't exactly visible from the street. - Ronnie doesn't sell to people who hunt animals and is pretty transparent about that. - They're cash only.

Primo Tactical (recently renamed) made my first firearm purchase a positive experience. Ronnie and…read moreMichelle are genuinely great people and made the entire process simple, comfortable, and educational from start to finish. As a first-time buyer, I had a lot of questions, and Ronnie took the time to walk me through safety, components, what to look for, current regulations, and responsible ownership. Being former law enforcement, he really emphasizes education and making sure people understand both the responsibility and the laws that come with firearm ownership. They've moved away from the traditional storefront model and are more selective with who they work with, which made the experience feel much more personal and trustworthy. They're also great for transfers and ammo. They didn't just sell me a firearm and send me on my way...they connected me with trusted people for training, cleaning, and maintenance as well.

This review is not just for the gun club- which is fantastic! Great equipment, excellent staff,…read morenice bar and friendly patrons who are always willing to offer advice and tips- But also for trap and skeet training lessons with Blake Fahmie. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about your progress--whether you're just getting started or refining advanced skills--Blake at the Martinez Gun Club is your guy. From the first moment, he made everything feel approachable, with zero pressure and endless patience. He has a calm, no-rush teaching style that creates the perfect environment for learning. Blake takes the time to explain everything thoroughly, never making you feel rushed or overwhelmed, and always meeting you where you're at. His ability to work with beginners while also helping experienced shooters fine-tune their technique is truly impressive. You can tell he loves what he does, and it shows in the results. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to grow in the sport at any level.

What I also appreciate is that he is mobile and will always do his best to accommodate your schedule.

Expect him to work for about 30-45 minutes on your shotgun.

It was my first time buying a gun and I told him that and the way he was talking to me it made it seem like he was trying to make me feel stupid. He needs to learn how to talk to people. But I bought the gun anyway because they were the only ones in my area who had it. Now the pick up process was great. I was helped by I believe his name was PK. Asian dude with glasses and a black hat. He was extremely nice and showed me all the safety tips and how to properly handle the gun. Im most likely never gonna shop here again because of that rude guy who first helped me. Now that I have the gun I want I will take my business for ammo and parts somewhere else. I really hope the managers read this review and tell that guy he needs to work on his people skills. The guy is a complete jerk.

They both have a purpose, depending on your objectives. They do, most certainly, adhere to a higher level of safety, since there is so much more going on. Carelessness can get you a DQ (disqualified, for the day). But don't worry, you can come back the next day and they still love you. I really do appreciate the heightened vigilance regarding safety. Nice crew, super-helpful and enough safety rules to make you comfortable without going overboard. Wonderful balance!

Where to begin?…read more This club is DIFFERENT! I attended the woman's introduction course and had the most incredible experience. Chris and Blade are nothing but perfect gentleman, with pristine expectations of their students. It's incredibly safe, and they keep such a close eye on all of us. They are kind, non-pretentious, funny, and a damn good time! The entire staff had a heart full of gold, only wanting to educate women on how to defend themselves. I could go on and on... this place is better than Martinez gun club by far. I trust these men wholeheartedly to teach me the way, I can't wait to be a member!

The staff behind the counter are incredibly knowledgeable and more importantly, they're actual shooters with real experience. You can tell right away these guys live the lifestyle and know their gear inside and out, not just random internet keyboard warriors pretending to know what they're talking about. They take the time to answer questions, give honest advice, and make sure you leave confident in your purchase. No pressure, no ego, just solid people who care about their customers and the shooting community. Rare to find a shop with this level of professionalism and authenticity these days. Easily one of the best FFL experiences I've had. Highly recommend supporting this place. I've been coming back since they opened and the service has stayed consistent
