Proforce

[Bigdawg90]

Anyone been to proforce lately? Are the wait times down or is it still stupid?

[FrankV]

Stupid wait times then, still stupid wait times now.

[Jovin]

Call ahead and make sure they got what you want first...I was there last week buying. Still long wait times.

One of my officers told me they called ProForce last week for a LE S&W pistol, earliest appointment time available was May 18th. He asked to have it transferred to me and they refused, stated their new policy does not allow them to do dealer transfers. I hear the wait times are 4-6 hours if you just show up or you can be first in line in the morning if you get there by 4AM.

Went on Monday. Got there at 0700 hours and signed in. Was called back and finished up about 1300 hours.

What are the other options for blue label LEO only shops? The Pomona store is dry.
I was at proforce for a pickup 2 months ago and they told me “45 minutes”. 3.5 hours later I completed pickup. That really ticked me off. Tell me 3 hours but don’t BS me with 45 minutes and have me wait in the parking lot for 3.5 hours.

My 10-day waiver was a blessing because going back twice would be another day wasted of just waiting.

I know there are alot of Turners Haters on this forum but, Turners does have blue line pricing. You can order a firearm from Proforce online and schedule a appointment for DROS.

Called two stores. One said no. The other said they could get LEO only guns but didn’t come with any special pricing.

You might try Adamson Police Products in Los Alamitos. I think they are only SIG and S&W blue label dealers. The last time I was there pre COIVD it was empty. I am retired LEO and I did a PPT with my buddy an active duty LEO and we were out of there in no time.

Pro force has a location in PRESCOTT Az...

Great customer service. Buy online and schedule a PU time.

I got a Glock 19X and a 48 MOS there a few weeks ago..

[johnnycharro]

Does LAPG still have their gun store in Valencia?

[SoCalDep]

Nope - they closed a couple years ago. The retail store is still open but no guns.

[xLoLo626x]

pick ups are fast...I was in an out 35min few weeks ago. Partner was there this morning 6am...3rd in line , was out by 9am. it seems like the wait got a little better.

OC Guns in Lake Forest is a Glock Blue Line Dealer, if that’s not too far to drive. Wait times vary: sometimes there’s 6-8 people waiting outside, sometimes you can go right in...

So the way Proforce works is get there super early, put your name on the list with your phone #. At 1300 they cut off the list. Everyone on the list that answers the call can go into the store to do their DROS or P/U their firearm. The stay till all people on the list are taken care of. They have another list for non-firearms purchases.

Order from "LC action" in San Jose. They will send to your ffl. Takes about 10 mintues on the phone.

I thought prices were the same for all blue label purchases. I called another blue label dealer and he said a gen 3 19 was $599?

The manufacturers all have a suggested retail price for their blue label guns. But not all Blue label dealers are the same.

Here's an example: ProForce is a Blue Label "distributor" and a retail store, but they have stopped selling Blue Label guns to Blue Label dealer stores. ProForce would have a Glock 17 GEN 5 MOS that they sell in the store for $450.00 to qualified purchasers, they would in the past sell the same Glock 17 GEN5 MOS to a Glock Blue Label dealer for resale in our store for $435 and charge us $15.00 to ship it.

So by the time the gun gets to our store we already have $450.00 invested in the same gun, so if we sell it at the same price ProForce is selling it for we actually lose money, so most Blue Label stores bump the price up a little to make something on that gun.

ProForce is getting that gun for a lot cheaper since they are a Blue Label "Distributor" and us Blue Label Dealers look like scum because we are charging more for the same gun even though we pay the same as you would in the ProForce store. No real incentive to sell Blue Label Glocks other than help out our local officers.

In terms of pricing you will see out there, Glock is really bad and all over the place because of the example, Sig and Smith & Wesson make it a more even playing field for Blue Label dealers so prices would be more competitive.
