    Doing a PPT at Turners is like going to Disneyland. A hassle to find parking, then you stand in line for hours only to get treated like a fat lady asking for a bigger piece of pie. Then, when its finally over your just glad its done....and your broke.

      I’ve probably done 50 ppts through turners without an issue that can be attributed to turners
      Last week when I picked up my LMT 224 Val the manager was on the phone trying to convince someone who was denied, or was it put on hold, anyway, he thought it was Turners who denied or put his gun on hold. The manager said over and over they had nothing to do with it, it's a DOJ decision....

      He came back to me and I told him I'm probably going to read about it on CG and he shook his head yes while laughing.

      Edit:It was on the 11th and the manager did the dros. Got my recollection screwed up, in case the manager is reading this.

        Let Turners know that if they want a data mining opinion from me that will cost them 50 bucks.
        And to be sure they receive a favorable opinion form me that will be an additional twenty.

        They will get their opinion 30 days after the check clears.

          How about a free Turners hat instead?

            If you have nothing but time to burn and no place to be for hours and hours then go ahead and use Turners... go ahead... I dare you... I triple dog dare you

              Nope. Wearing the hat will cost you more.

                One took 4 hours, one might have been less than one hour.

                When buying, you also have to wait for the pickup.

                Also: 1.5 hours for an FSC test, 5 minutes for me to take the test.

                I'd rather have that extra hour, so will no longer go there unless circumstances force it.

                Interesting that you assume so many all did something wrong because you got lucky once.

                  Problems with PPT at Turners:

                  1: They have kittens out of their as_ if the buyer pays you in the store
                  2: It will take forever...multiple managers have to sign multiple random crap papers before you can GTFO of the store.

                  I've done a few PPTs at Turners and they always take a loooong time to complete.

                    Interesting.

                    Turner's Reseda is where I got my Ruger Wrangler. I picked it up Thursday and was there a total of about 25 minutes including waiting for my number to come up.

                    The longest wait I've ever had was doing a PPT with a friend who hemmed and hawed and finally decided 'Yeah I want to buy that AR before the registration requirement kicks in.'

                    We PPT'ed it on December 30th or 31st and it was nucking futs!
                    I should have charged him extra...

                      The reason why many people here don't like Turner's is due to the excessive wait times. Sometimes these can be prolonged even more as they can be very anal about paperwork. Then there are "some" employees that are annoying, think they know everything. I think those are the big 3 reasons.

                      Other than that, I think we should support Turners, rather than bash them. It's tough to be Turner's in California.

If all these accusations had merit those shops would have been out of biz long ago.
                        I have a BIG PROBLEM with Ammo Liars.

                        After being a loyal patron for 10 yrs after they first opened their first store. I draw the line at patronizing a business that has a dedicated store policy that REQUIRES THEIR EMPLOYEES TO BLATANTLY LIE TO CUSTOMERS.
