The black rifle bug awoke again, this time I'm fixated on AK's. Anybody know of a Bay Area gun shop that has a good selection of AK's in stock that I can fondle and put my paws on. The closer to San Francisco the better, but I am willing to drive upto an hour away. Please help me feed my black rifle hunger.

Thanks calgunners

Lets see,

City Arms in pacifica has some
Jackson Arms in South SF has a few (maybe like 2)
Bay Area Gn Vault in Mountian View has a decent stash of them (15-20)

and

Valkyrie Arms in Santa Clara has like a million of them. Forum member Sjgunguy makes custom AKs and works for them. They can make anything.

Take a little drive down 101 and stop at them all :)

Skip Jackson, they are a range above all else.

Valkyrie is tough to beat, if you do not see what you they can make it for you.

Triple A's Sporting Goods in Vallejo. One the best selection of firearms in the Bay Area.

+1 on Gun Vault

There's also Golden Gate Guns in San Bruno, but they sell converted Sporter type Saigas instead. But hey it might be worth the look before you make the drive down the peninsula.

Bay Area Gun Vault - Large selection of Black Rifles in 5.56 and .308. Not the cheapest but you will get to handle them all. I've bought 2 handguns and a shotgun from them. Great place. Ask for Vader when you get there :cool: Open on Sat

Valkyrie - Cool stuff and custom builds. Worth a stop. Open on Sat

US Fire Arms - Very knowledgeable and deals in high end ARs (LMT Noveske). Small selection but can order whatever you want. They have onsite gunsmithing as well. Open Sat

Imbert & Smithers - Great for shotguns and hunting guns, ammo and supplies. Very small Black rifle selection. Open Sat

Reed's - Small black rifle selection. Large handgun selection. Worth a stop and they have a range for handguns. Open Sat and Sun

Eddy's - Small shop. Some cool custom builds. You can spend a hour just talking guns with the owner. Worth a stop. Open Sat

Jackson Arms - Keep driving
Kerley's - Keep driving
Target Masters - Keep driving (and don't go into the range)
