Target Masters is, without a doubt, one of the worst shops to do business in. The employees expound opinion as law, they spread FUD like nobody's business, they take way too much time to complete simple paperwork, they have no safety governing the range, and too many other things to recall right now. They are second to none. Only GF&OS did them one better, one time. Recall the contacting the BATF story about a customers AR pistol? (AR or AK)
I've been to Target Masters 3 times in my life.
1)After I turned 21 I went to their range one night with friends. Place was empty, I kept my friends safe, (they had no familiarity with guns at all) had no problems, and we all had fun. Granted, that was in 1992ish.
2)I met another calgunner there for a PPT. I was selling to him. It took 90 minutes start to finish. Plus they have ALL of their own BS paperwork to contend with. It was at that point I learned what a horrid place it was and vowed to return only once more. That was to prove a point.
3)Went in to buy a CZ SP-01. When they handed me their 5-10 extra in store BS paperwork, I politely replied, "I don't need any of that. I already have this." (showed my HSC card that says according to the state, I'm good to go.) They said I couldn't buy a gun if I didn't do their paperwork. I reached into my pocket and pulled out $800. I showed it to them and said, "You see this? That's $800 you just lost because of your BS paperwork." I went to Reeds and was done in about 15 minutes.
I will tell newbies in that area to go check out their supply. They do carry a lot of new stuff in their cases. I also tell them don't even think about buying there, tell them to check out others stories about the place, just to look and move on. How that place keeps the doors open and lights on with their FUD and other crap is beyond me. I for one won't spend any money there no matter what. I'm waiting for a store to get a CZ 75b SA in so I can buy one. No one has one in stock. I don't care if TM gets one first and it's the lowest price available. They get none of my money. It's the principle of the matter.
On a side note but relating to principle, anyone see that Liam Neeson has another movie out where he's using guns to kill people?
