ProForce: How long is too long?

[viet4lifeOC]

I refuse to do business with dealer's that want to "mystery order" firearms "direct" with unknown ship dates. If they won't pick up the phone and call a distributor and find one in my presence they don't get my money.

Fortunately I've dealt with my local shops for so many years that if I call them regarding a firearm I'm interested in they will find one, order it and call me back before I even pay for it; they know my word is good.

I'd go in and give them the option of refunding your money, or picking up the phone and finding one in your presence and getting it on the way a.s.a.p.

This.

CK_32,

I just don't understand why you continue to do business with LGS that you know are over priced (ie Riflegear) or shops that provide poor service (ie Proforce).

Personally, I'd drive the extra mile just to know a shop "earned" my dollars. I refuse to buy from gun shops that are overpriced (The Stockade, Riflegear, etc) when there are better local shops to deal with (OC Armory, OC Firearms, Straight line Tactical).

You worked hard to earn your money...make them work just as hard to earn yours.

Warrior one in Riverside is Blue label. Bought a blue label 34 at the ammo bros police store a few months back. Both stores are legit. Proforce hasnt had much of anything on the shelves lately. Good luck!

Longest lines at Proforce usually but they have some cool guns.

You'd be a fool not to buy at oc firearms!

Can I use my GSSF coupon at ammo bros of Ontario ?

YEP!!!! I cant believe they are still trying to figure out a way to use that blue label coupon

Add up all of your time and effort, in the end you will still get the run around and be disapointed.

Go see steve @ OC, he ordered mine and got it the next day so I guess they are not "out of them"

[CK_32]

That's just the thing supposedly they are getting in Gen4 Blue Labels. My thinking is they are only pushing the Gen4s and selling those off to cops and the GSSF guys like me stuck to 3s only are SOL. But hey we'll still take your money and keep you in mind

[SDM44]

I know a lot of people recommend going to OC Firearms and getting a Gen 4 there (I've bought a gun from OC Firearms recently, and Steve is a great guy to deal with). However, you're looking to spend around $646 OTD for a Gen 4 9mm or .40 Glock.

If you buy a blue label 9mm or .40 Glock, you're looking at around $464 OTD if it comes with 10rd magazines, or $391 OTD without any magazines for a Gen 3 Glock. Those are exactly what my past invoices from ProForce were for a G26, G17, and G19 from them - they don't carry 10rd G19 or G17 mags, so they'll credit you for the normal cap mags that comes with the pistols since they can't sell them to us.

While I like Gen 4 Glocks and have owned them in the past, IMO it's not worth the extra $182 or $255 markup in price just to get a Gen 4 over a Gen 3. That's just something to consider.


I may look into Ammo Bros in Ontario, since they're 21 miles from me (ProForce is 9 miles so it's more convenient but not when it's like an hour wait in line inside their store).

Save your money and go some where else.

Got my G21SF from Proforce with no hassle...two years ago.

Never have had a problem with ProForce?? Just picked up a 17 Gen 4.

Exactly. They are heavily stocked with constant supply with their Gen4's but their 3s, which is what us GSSF holders are limited to are rare and far between. Which shows they are receiving orders regularly of product just not bothering with 3s since LEO can have one or the other but again GSSF are limited to 3's alone. Which is why I feel they should lose their GSSF contract to a company more focused on ALL customers not just LEO and what's convenient for them.

Proforce is is basically a police/security supply house.

[E.T.]

I've always had great service at Proforce.

Me too. I've been to Ammo Bros. in Cerritos - wait seem to be forever, even with very few people in the store.

I've bought 2 pistols from proforce and def will buy more in the future. I've had nothing but awesome service while shopping there. In the past ive called them and requested an inquiry on a few firearms. I've been but on hold for a little while but they ve always told we what they had. If you want glocks trust me they have plenty of them. The only thing that sucks is waiting in line. Usually that place is pretty busy, i suggest you get there early. The few times i've gone to other places its a bunch of baggy pant wearin mofos that are buying guns with their EBT cards. Nice to shop in a place that doesnt allow such douchebaggary .

[xSARSx]

take your money some where else ck32. sorry to hear but 5 to 6 months wait, just wow. better be gold for that long of a wait for a glock. i dont think they are back order or behind at all. the small little local shop i go to usually order for me if they dont have it in stock which i just bought a gen 3 glock 17 just a few weeks ago. proforce are either lazy and dont want to put any effort into getting your pistol or really dont have it in stock which i highly doubt it. never bought from them but usually hear good things about them until now... im kinda bummed to hear this
