Beware of dealing with this company. If you buy a product and it's defective, there's a chance they will not take it back. If you buy a pepper spray specifically, just pray that if you need it, it may fail. I tried a short squirt with the one I purchased because I had never owned one and wanted to make I understood how to operate it. I then regretted that I hadn't paid attention to how far the spray went. So I tried it a few days later and it didn't spray at all. . .so if one misses attackers eye area, one would not be able to re-aim and correct your aim. . . and beware, some may have no spray in them at all. read more

Terrible place, unprofessional, rude employees, high prices. Don't do business at this store.

Where to start... The 'management' here is certainly different from its original ownership. The profits as others have mentioned on gun purchases with background denials coming back, as errors, on their part is unacceptable. Don't expect to do any refunds on the next morning because they apparently Don't even keep $40.00 cash. $40.00!?!?! Copy; credit swap at least so there's that. The courteousness and atmosphere and it's noted as distant by numerous patrons under this ownership. They do at least have a certified Gunsmith present but that is a whole other cold interface. Product quantities are limited and even more limited in reloading products. The overall atmosphere is a bit chilly compared to the Sportsman's Warehouses in the area. By contrast, they provide a 10% Military discount where as Turner's is the only store in Tucson that offer's 5%... While ANY discount is courteous, I would prefer to recommend to shop at other firearm stores within the Tucson area. Not what they once were. read more

Amazing service by Marcos! I went to another gun store with no knowledge of guns and am so glad they dropped the ball on service which led me to google other gun stores and come across them. He helped me find which gun fit and other helpful tidbits. Marcos not only recommended me a place to take gun lessons but also let me know a CCW course was offered once a month at their location, which I signed up for. Best $1200 I've spent in a while! read more

Turner's Outdoorsman-Tucson - Sig Sauer - Outdoor Gear Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

We were from out of town and needed to get targets, ammo, and find a good place outside to teach my girlfriend to shoot. They had more than we needed, scored some really nice active ear protection on clearance. The highlight was David at the gun counter. He showed us around and gave us an excellent suggestion on a range in a beautiful place free of the weekend crowds, it did not disappoint and my girlfriend was able to learn without the crowds and with a sweet new pair of headphones. read more

I went to purchase a handgun, and the experience went smoothly. I was looking for a more concealed handgun, and the staff was very helpful in explaining my options. In less than 30 minutes, I walked out with my new handgun. I'm very happy with the service! Marco and another gentleman (whose name I didn't catch) assisted me, and they were great. read more

Stop in if you're hankering for a genuine California Gun Store experience. The customer is treated as an inconvenience and is generally avoided at all costs. The 2nd Amendment is frowned upon and if you're lucky enough to find a firearm reasonably priced, once you attempt to purchase it, you're treated like a criminal.Oh, and forget about service; the employees generally avoid eye contact and actively seek ways to escape helping you. Once you finally corner the scruffy, half-baked kid behind the optics counter with the 1000-yard stare and slack, fly-catcher mouth, don't be shocked when he offers little to no insight and stares blankly at you when you ask for someone who might actually know what's going on at this store. 2nd Amendment Sports used to be cool. Bought a lot of stuff there. Turners is the worst. Hit up Murphy's or some other place that actually wants your service. read more

It's always a double slap in the face when firearms dealer selectively gives out military discounts. It's 5%. Literally as low as I've seen any gun store locally. Walked out today instead of purchasing a 1600 rifle over principle. Basically it's only for their over priced guns is it applicable. On any of the normal priced stuff you can always haggle like it's the swap meet anyway. Went in to see if I could get someone to talk to and the manager just laughed and said no. read more

they are too expensive they charged me $80 for an FFL transfer. and $55 for another FFL transfer (I picked up both firearms the same day, 2 online orders) not happy. that bigging said I should have check first before I chose them as my FFL transfer. I'm writing this to help others. there are cheaper FFL transfers elsewhere. I will not buy from Turner's outdoorsman or choose them as my FFL transfer. read more

I loved this store when it was Jensens and then 2nd Amendment. I have probably spent $30k at this store. This place has changed! The most ridiculous policy is the 30% fee if your background check comes back as denied. The sales team even admits that 95% of denials are due to bad information or error. I do not trust a gun store that profits perhaps more if you are denied rather than approved. Thank goodness I have never been denied. No other gun store that I know of does this in Tucson, Az. I have my own business and understand time and wages but to charge someone $300 on a purchase that did not happen and a background check that only takes 20 minutes tops is unacceptable. This policy needs to be changed. Take a lesson from other stores, do the background then sell the firearm. read more

Great people and service! Great selection too to include products that are hard to come by.

Great staff and selection! The reason for the 2 stars is that I'm out 120 bucks on restocking fee. I received a delayed response from the NICS check and was told to wait two weeks. I waited the two weeks and came to pick up the firearm, only to find out that I was denied (I am not a prohibited possessor) and being charged a 20% restocking fee. They said they called me, but I did not receive any calls or voicemails. (To be fair, where I work, I do not receive cell service for most of the day.) The firearm was already restocked and I was issued a refund for the cost of the firearm, minus the 20% restocking fee. I asked if I could pay for the firearm upfront and have them hold onto the firearm so that I could find out what is happening with the NICS check and was told 'no'. Like I said before, Second Amendment Sports has a great staff, and great selection. However, for this particular situation, I'm left with a bitter taste in my mouth. The rigidity with the restocking fee and unwillingness to work with me, has put me off. read more

Great customer service. I mean incredible!!! Huge selection!!! Wide variety of everything. Justin was awesome. I can only give 2 stars because after my purchase, I looked up my firearm online for a question. I found it 3 miles away at Sportsman Warehouse for almost $100 cheaper. That's a huge difference. I get the warranty. But, with the factory warranty it's not worth $100. I should have looked while in the store. I wouldn't have bought it here. I would've driven a few miles and saved close to $100.00. Caveat emptor!!!! So, if you're in this store check Sportsman's Warehouse price before buying. read more

Low inventory and high prices since Turners took over. But, it is what it is. Gone is the life time warranty on a new firearm purchase. And several good sales people are no longer there. And, if they get your email address, get ready to receive junk mail. read more

Now that they are insinuating I'm making things up and using a fake name, I feel it is fitting to change my review from a barely deserved two stars to one. I have also included a photo of my receipt as proof of my purchase (if further proof is required I can also post a photo of my ID and bank record). To Crystal S: If you'd like to search your records again, my name is: Patrick DEFILE. Also, thanks for proving my point. read more

Turner's Outdoorsman has ridiculous prices and they have a low stock of products. In addition to that, the employees are rude and unprofessional. Save your money and go somewhere else. read more

This store used to be 2nd. Amendment Sports, and the staff and management did a fine job of stocking firearms and supplies. The staff is top notch, always friendly, and knowledgeable. I've purchased 3 hard to find firearms there this year. I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

Every time I've been into this store the counter guys are extremely rude. I've literally been ignored and dismissed once I was finally able to tell them what I was looking for. One guy passed over me and said to another customer quote " oh I don't need to help him, he's looking for something we don't have". I was not even given a chance to discuss the possibility of other alternatives to the handgun I was looking for. I will prob never go there again. read more

Purchased my first pistol here and Adrian was great! He was patient, answering all my questions, had specifications ready for each model of Glock and Smith&Wesson, and allowed time to compare the models. Place was busy but had ample social distance between customers. Would definitely recommend read more

My wife and I are new to the gun world. We really had no clue about what we needed and how to use whatever we we decided to purchase. Second Amendment Sports and their employee, Robert, took care of us and our questions. We were waited on in a timely fashion and with great patience. Good selection, efficient service, friendly advice. Thanks, Robert and Second Amendment Sports! read more

I just moved to Arizona from Cali and let's just say was very excited to see the wider range of firearms available to the pubic. I visited a few local gun stores in the Phoenix area let's just say customer service is not everybody's forte. I was in one other store and there was nobody else in there and I asked clerk a few questions and he was being very rude and acted like I was bothering him from being to busy sitting on his chair, crazy if you ask me! I was in the the Tucson area and found out 2nd Amendment had a local store. So I thought I'd pay them a visit. I was looking for parts for my Ruger precision and a gentleman by the name of John was happy to help me very friendly and answered all my questions and got what I needed. I wasn't planning on buying any big ticket items but Johns customer service was very knowledgeable and helpful so I decided to purchase my first over 10 round capacity handgun from him. Thank you very much Second Amendment and a shout out to John! read more

Professional service with a fast and streamlined process for purchasing a firearm. They have constant sales and a great staff that are very knowledgable and will even make recommendations if you ask. read more

My most recent visit was really disappointing. Seems like the helpful guy in the ammo section is gone now and that's too bad. I don't get as good of service there anymore. Just out of curiosity I asked the newest ammo guy the difference between center fire and rim fire ( I already knew, but it's something I like to ask as it shows me they either do or don't know very much). He told me rim fire was only for revolvers. Teach your people the products Second Amendment! I'll drive the extra 15 mins and go to Diamondback from now on. read more

Great experience. Came in, shopped around, got assistance with selection. Came back 2nd time for ammo and equally great service. Ladies that handled background paperwork were very helpful and had made the process stupid-proof. Guy that helped me with selection (brown hair and beard, shame on me for not getting your name) was very nice, very patient, and very helpful. 2nd time coming back when I purchased ammo, the man at the ammo counter (again, sorry for not getting your name) was really helpful as well. The prices during both visits were very reasonable. If I could give 6 stars I would! read more

I like that they don't charge sales tax on scopes and the lifetime warranties on their firearms but their claim that they boresight for you should be taken as a grain of salt. My scope was so bad I was close to hitting the target next to mine. I ended up bore sighting it myself. Aside from their lack of bore sighting I was happy with their service and everything else. read more

Honestly I wanna speak from the great experience that a had their I happen to have had my older daughter's with me, Which they asked many questions and there never was a moment that they Made us feel unwanted, Or as if they had to tolerate us the staff there is amazing tentative, respectful and informative I've been to A few OTHER gun shops and I must say the customer service skills are almost nonexistent But these people here at 2nd amendment have set a certain standard and I will definitely return in the future read more

Was dope, fair prices and huge selection... some of the staff are a lot more enthusiastic about helping you than others, so be patient and pick someone who actually wants to talk to you if you have questions.. make shure you have your AZ id ready to go and be in first ting in the morning to do background check as quickly as possible and get out same day read more

Place used to be okay. Depends on the person you work with. For example, Adrian sucks. Kevin and Brian are awesome. Too bad Kevin doesn't work here anymore. Now that this place is Turners, I don't think I'll ever buy a gun from here again. 780 for a cz p01?????? 600 for a g19?? Just wait for it to be in stock at places like sportsmans warehouse which is still somewhat pricy but not as bad as this place. read more

Not knowing anything about firearms or what's needed to purchase one, I went int there twice and got no help whatsoever on what kind of paperwork I would need, where to go to get it. This is a stumbling block for me to purchase any of your products I would like to buy for self defense for my mother and myself, and as possibly a new hobby. The first time I went there I was talking with an older gentleman and when I told him of my lack of knowledge regarding firearms he suggested I go to a gun range. That was it. Already feeling nervous and intimidated because of my ignorance, I was turned away. The second time I went, 1/7/2021, I expressed concern over what was needed for a background check, and was just told, "we don't do background checks." He offered no help whatsoever. No inquiries of how to help me, or where to go, except a "go to the police". Is this common? Does everyone have to go to the police department to register for a firearms background check? When I mentioned this to a co-worker of mine he was surprised because they did a background check at the store where he bought a pistol. Very dissatisfied and disappointed to say the least. All I have is money I want to spend on a purchase at a store, and I get nothing. And the thing is, is I work in retail and try to help anyone I can get what the need and want without question. So I'm not understanding why I received such shabby treatment. Anyways I gave them two chances and am too intimidated to try again. I'll have to go somewhere else. read more

Gouge you! On ammunition. Way too much for ammo. Significantly higher than Armslist. Even higher than Gunbroker!

Great selection of guns & accessories. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. I was able to find everything I needed. They even gave me a lead on a very rare part I've been looking for. read more

My husband came with me to purchase a firearm, while I waited, he found a salesman, the firearm is for me but the salesman made my husband do the background check, not me. I'm a paying customer not my husband. Why couldn't I make my purchase? read more

This place is top-notch! Excellent management, and and a great selection of guns, ammo, and gear. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful, but also friendly. I made my first purchase from here last weekend and was helped by John, who was a real pro. Also the girls in back were great with getting me through the paperwork. One of the smoothest, fastest firearms purchases I have ever made. I can't wait to buy my next one here. read more

Almost got charged $50 for "repairs" (read: a cleaning) I didn't want. Ellis stepped in and got it reduced to $25, but I still won't be coming back. My advice is find another gun store. I brought a gun here that had been gifted to me. The previous owner said something was wrong with it and I needed to get it looked at. When I brought it in I specifically said I don't know what's wrong with it, please call me with a quote before starting work. I was not informed at this time there is a $40 charge just to have the gunsmith look at it. It makes sense that there would be a charge, but that's something you should tell me upfront. One week later I called to check on my gun and retrieve it before repairs start. The guy on the phone says repairs are done, nothing was wrong but they cleaned it and it'll be $50. I responded, "You were supposed to call me. Does it say anything about calling me on there?". "Oh, yeah" he says, "Sorry.". If they had been upfront about the $40 charge to have the gunsmith look at the weapon and diagnose the problem I would have probably been okay with that. The fact that they didn't tell me about the $40 base price, didn't call me before it was looked at OR after it was ready, and didn't even try to offer any excuses on the phone pissed me off. After I got to the store I dealt with Ellis who, upon hearing my story, went to the back to see what he could do. When he emerged the price had gone from $50 to $25, which still irks me but at least he tried. Apparently poor communication with the customer is a problem they've been having. I won't be returning. read more

Huh, cool, always a nice thing to get a hostile response from a business. Alright, that's fine. Even if Defensive is out of business, there are still a large number of other FFLs in town in the $20-$25 range for transfers. And yes, in the year and a half plus since I wrote this review, they raised their transfer prices and I stopped going there because they weren't the cheapest anymore, and they weren't terribly convenient. I don't dispute that offering transfers is a matter of customer service and that you "aren't there to facilitate someone else's business model", but $40-$100 for watching someone fill out a 4473, call NICS, and make a bound book entry is highly priced for the area. Additionally, offering relatively cheap (sometimes even free) transfers IS a good business model for a lot of dealers I know around the country. People are much more likely to buy a holster and 400 rounds of ammo for their new pistol they're transferring from you if they know you're the best transfer deal in town because they'll be in your store, looking at your stuff, waiting around while the call is made. And I know accessories are where most dealers make their real profits. My experience with pricing at Second Amendment is that, like I said, it isn't as bad as some other stores in town, they still tend to be high for what they're offering. Other brick and mortar stores in town are more competitive, at least on the sort of stuff I'm interested in. I'll avoid naming names in here as it comes off as a bit tacky. read more

Been going to Turners for as long as I can remember. They've always been good at what they do and are challenged like every business today with lower inventories of ammo and guns. I can't find .30-30 ammo anywhere, not even on line! Everything is on back order. Don't hesitate to shop here, you might get lucky and find what you need. read more

Awesome experience purchasing a rifle at Second Amendment Sports. John helped me select a nice rifle, he was also helpful in selecting ammo and accessories for the ammo. The background check went smooth and was easy to fill out forms after the ladies show you what exactly they need filled out and how. Thanks Second Amendment, was my first purchase and won't be my last! read more

Wow where to begin. Let me start by saying I used to consider this place a 4 out of 5 but since they no longer have my business ill write what they are doing wrong and what they have done wrong. First it's 2/16/2013 the proposed gun ban is in full swing. Now everyone's prices have gone up that's expected. 20-50 percent increase is to be expected. When you have parts that were once 8.99-12.99 for 42.99 you are completely taking advantage of people. So make your money now! You have lost my business forever as well as all my friends. Second you are 1 of 2 gun stores in Tucson that don't offer military and law enforcement discounts. We sacrifice so much and lay our lives down protect your freedom and your too much of a cheap ass to give a mere 5-10 percent discount. Guess what your close to DM Air Force Base yet only the new guys even visit your store. It's not the discount we want its the acknowledgement for our service to this great Country we want. It would be great to see one from you. But even if you did it just shows your true character that you never had one the day you opened your doors as the new owner. Prices have always been an easy 10 percent higher from other stores when things where normal. I don't have much to say as this is a fact. But you are now an easy 30-70 dollars more per pistol. You brag about being the only store in Tucson that still has AR 15s!!!! The only reason you still have ar 15s is because your prices are insane Your employees don't know anything. Heard a guy trying to sell a S&W 45acp and said the average speed of a 45ACP was 1400FPS. Telling him its as fast as a 9mm with 3 times the knock down power so the choice was simple. Its clear to anyone who knows firearms he was just trying to make a sale on an old man who was buying his first gun. Great integrity I don't blame your store per say but the fact you hire people like this and he is still working for you. Just shows you don't care who you hire. And lastly THEY PULL THE BAIT N SWITCH. For those that don't know what that means if you call in and ask for an item they quote you a low price to get you into the store. Then they SUDDENLY run out have the chance to up sell you. But they never had what you were looking for in the first place. I have asked for at least 2 firearms then got there same day (before everything went crazy) and OOoooooO we just sold it but we have this. I just felt like I was unlucky. Then today I hear a call for a glock 19 and say yea we got one for 520. Im like its my lucky day I'm going to be the guy to get it. Well guess what they didn't even have one. He was going to try to upscale him to a sig compact 40 a 300 dollar increase in price. I'm not even sure if that's 100percent legal however even if it is its not a way to run an honest business. I hate paying extra for anything in life like most do. But even if Second Amendment Sports was cheaper I'd pay the extra dollar to a business who didn't try to take advantage of every customer that walked threw the door. Even my friend who loves this place said you have to buy a few guns over priced before they consider giving you deals. That's like saying you gotta buy a few cars sticker price before you get a deal!?! Sorry but will all this is goes without saying you have lost my business. But more importantly you have lost my and ever service members respect. Which won't phase a shameless business like yourself so you shouldn't be worried by a honest review..... read more
