Worst shop I have ever been to. Went in there to find a benelli, they told me a few days earlier that they had plenty in black and wouldnt sell out soon. When I got there at first I had to wait 15 minutes to get someones attention, there was no black M4 on the shelf, but their computer said they had one, so he looked around in the store, then across the street in their "storage". He came back 30 minutes later with no gun. So my only option was the camo finish. So I proceeded to go outside and call around to see if there were any benelli dealers around.
With no such luck of finding anyone else, I made the decision to go back inside and ask about special ordering one. Their reply was "Oh yeah we already ordered some", and when asked when they would be here; "sometime 1st quarter next year", so when I make a comment about how that could be anywhere from january to the end of march, he got all defensive. So with no guarantee of actually getting a gun the next time they came in, and with no guarantee on the next price, I decided to buy one now.
So when I decided to get one the clerk says; "Well I dont want to give you the one off the shelf because then I'd have to box it all back up, I'll get one from storage."
So probably about 20 minutes pass, and I'm passing the time by browsing the store, all the while there are no employees asking if I need help with anything that I was looking at. And then I look at the front desk, and the guy that was helping is on the phone, just chatting it up, with no gun.
So finally he gets off the phone and goes across the street, but not before someone asks for some ammo that is over there as well. Then probably about an hour later he returns with the gun, and the other persons ammo. So finally I can pay do a background and get out of there, all in all it took me over 3 hours to get a gun that should of taken about 30-45 minutes.
On a side note, while I was in there waiting, I could watch how their employees acted. For one, they all seemed on some sort of drugs, no one was alert, and everyone mumbled. When asked simple questions by a customer most had no answer, so I had to pitch in and answer their questions myself. When I decided to ask one employee what .50 bmg ammo they carried, he didn't know what that was. The entire time, the woman up front tried to convince everyone that they needed to buy a used handgun now because they would be sold at the next weekend's show, and another guy spent 45 minutes trying to push a 5.7 upper on a guy that wasn't interested at all, and who had asked what .223 uppers they had.
All in all, this is the second time I have had horrible experience with them (first being at a show), the ONLY reason I went there was because no one else had benellis. So now I am NEVER going back, and I suggest you do the same.
If you want a gun at a good price with no hassle and great customer service, go through one of our FFLs on here (coctailer, elcid, ect) or go to philomath. (or whatever other shop may be your favorite)
