I went to this place thinking I would only do some window shopping. By the time I left, I was a first time gun owner. The staff were very welcoming and not intimidating at all, which was a huge plus because I was coming into this store with no experience at all. There were a couple of people who came in that seemed like regulars, who were also very nice and helpful. By the time I left, the store congratulated me on my purchase and I felt welcomed into their community. read more

Ever since I discovered Patriotic Arms, it's become my go-to FFL. Their prices are fair, and the customer service is second to none. Johnny and his wife are always welcoming, incredibly knowledgeable, and never hesitate to answer questions. They take the time to explain things thoroughly and make sure customers feel comfortable and informed. The shop has a great family-owned atmosphere, and it's the kind of place I'd confidently recommend to friends and family. Whether you're an experienced firearm owner or a first-time buyer, they make the process easy and enjoyable. Patriotic Arms has earned my business, and I look forward to continuing to support this outstanding local business read more

Outstanding service with patience in answering any question asked. No ego just knowledge and friendly. From first timers to highly skilled the staff and owners are there to help. Used and new with consignment firearms to purchase or sell. Walk in and see for yourself. read more

The owner are amazing!! Very honest and professional!!! Great veteran owned business!!!

I found Patriotic Arms because my local shops were not helping me. I started calling and finally found someone who would take the time to help. Patriotic Arms is a family run business that really cares about their customers. Johnny and Veronica do a great job. They have excellent customer service. This is the reason why I drove 2 hours to get my items from them. They run a great store with plenty of stock. They can do FFL's and they have plenty of knowledge and experience to help you with the process. They have a large selection of consignments that I could not find anywhere else. I highly urge you to call them before making your final decisions for prices and availability with your next gear purchase. read more

I came here expecting professional custom work and clear communication. I had to take the firearm to another shop to repair the damage. Disappointing experience. Best of luck read more

Great shop, owners were awesome and helped me order some uncommon ammo no one had in stock. They went above and beyond to help me at a more than fair price. Their transfer fees and policy was the best in the area and they said they normally try and keep at least a little of everything in stock so ordering isn't necessary. They got it in in days rather than the weeks another shop quoted. The more common ammo I needed was available at a great price. The customer service was warm and welcoming. They were knowledgeable and there was none of the bad attitude you unfortunately find at so many gun stores where the staff is often very condescending while exposing they don't know half as much as they think they do. It was clear if they needed to look something up they would instead of shoveling some nonsense and pretending they know everything. These guys had the warmest, most welcoming and friendliest attitude I have ever experienced at a gun store, and I haven't been able to drive past one without popping in for decades. I was extremely impressed and feel much better going here than some big chain. read more

Nice store. Staff was very knowledgeable. My dear wife bought me an AR rifle by Sons of Liberty, along with an optical sight. Can't wait to pick it up! read more

I went in here with my neighbor What a mistake!! He was very nice. I ordered some parts from him He went into the back and his wife was working the counter. She looked at me and scowled. She said she doesn't talk to people she doesn't like. She said the parts would be in Tuesday. I brought my wife with me on Tuesday. When we came in she said What do you want? I said We where here for the parts I ordered. She said DID I CALL YOU? I said no. And she said well than they are not here. We just got home and she called and said the parts had arrived. My neighbor took me in two days later to get my parts. I asked to look at a knife. She ignored me. but would show it to my friend. Does she just hate Hispanics? We try to support brick and mortar stores. But this store just lost 10 customers. I will never step foot inside the store an just order on line. read more

They never called after 3 in-person requests for pricing on aftermarket parts for a firearm I bought from them. With my firearm purchase, I ordered other parts for another platform and paid up front, in full. Instead of calling about my parts being ready for pickup, they put them on the for-sale shelf because they got "tired of waiting for me," (their words) and made jokes of it. I was already waiting on a call for pricing on other parts, and didn't want to make two trips out there. On the last visit, I asked (again) for a call on pricing for the previously mentioned parts, and still haven't recieved a call (it's been months). I've since found another shop. I don't know man, you give a small shop over $1,200 in business up front, you think they'd call with a quote they promised to give multiple times, let alone notify you of your paid-for special order parts being ready rather than putting it on the for-sale shelf. Just a bit of that "gunshop bro" energy with 2 of the 3 people I dealt with. The fella that wears the ballcap indoors though? He was great. He's the only guy who returned a call when I reached out and wasn't witty when I was in the shop. It's not a terrible shop by any means. Their prices are better than most and the staff is knowledgeable, but my experience was pretty damn disappointing. Given their good reputation that led me there, you probably won't have a hard time. Just a let down. read more

Patriotic Arms - Awesome job on my wife's custom Glock 19! - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Canyon Lake, California

I wish I could leave no stars.. if you want to waste time and money, this is the place to go. I've spent hard earned money for them to take away so easy, should be illegal. I brought in my Glock for a slide cut and red dot. He took it in for 6 month total. When I got my gun back it wasn't functioning so I called him about it and wanted to charge me to fix what I paid him to do in the first place.. I don't understand where his head is but this isn't right. I wish they would refund me my money and I would have given him my slide he messed up and the red dot back in return. I really think he did this to me on purpose to take money from me.. I will never trust him again and I hope he doesn't do the same to you (customer) if he wants to stay in business. Im pretty angry and upset and I don't think it's good when someone doesn't give a good review. Lets others know to be careful with this shop. Just check out "outlaw armory of canyon lake" it's in the same parking lot these guys are in. You won't be lied too and they won't steal from you. They are very honest people. I'm read more

I don't leave reviews often, if ever, but I have to say that Veronica at Patriotic Arms has been nothing short of amazing in all of our dealings with her. As another commenter stated, she is very generous with her time and she has been so helpful to my husband and I. I found everyone in the shop to be extremely helpful, honest, and very customer oriented. That is almost impossible to find anymore. We will give all of our firearm business to Patriotic Arms from now on! read more

Greetings , I was very pleased with the outcome of my first encounter with "Johnny" one of the owners! I called because I am new to the area and I was looking for a place that could meet my requirements and expectations, while enjoying one of my hobbies! Johnny "you" followed up with a call back, answered all of my questions and then provided me with a price list! Outstanding customer service ! I would like to show my support and post this as a review! Please let me know what I need to do! Also, I have ordered some more equipment from out of state and due to the fact you are a licensed "FFL" dealer and they don't ship to your residence, I have them shipped to you !! I'm excited for the future and being a loyal customer!! Let me know what I need to do moving forward! read more

This place is the best and by far most friendly gun store ever . Since September 2020 I have purchased many items here . They are very knowledgeable in their field and if they don't carry it they will sure try to get it for you. I did a lot of my buying during the Covid cough I MEAN THE FLU SO we couldn't get certain things as easy as now . I drive an hour to shop there and don't mind at all . The owners are not just a gun dealer they are my friends now and 100% make you feel like family. read more
