    I think having turners open across the freeway didn’t help.

    If it wasn’t for guys like mike, ammo bro’s, and rifle gear we would have been shutout by the other guns stores who refused to sell AR’s until kamela admitted they were legal.

    It’s amazing how much FUD one hears when you stray from a store like OC Armory. Actually it’s a sad testimony to the state of retail gun stores in California.
    I love America for the rights and freedoms we used to have.

      Seriously unfortunate. Mike has done a lot for the CA 2A community.

        And SSE, magazine kits and whatnot... These guys pushed the limit straight to the line prescribed by the law and we all benefited.

          That's a shame, and I'm sad to see them go. I always liked going there, and I've bought more than a few guns from that shop.

          I know Mike is a pilot, and I hope the downturn in commercial aviation created some pockets in the market for him to fill.

          Gavin Newsom is a lying, cheating slickster and will be is the worst mistake California has ever made if he gets now that he has been elected Governor. Hollywood movie producers look to him and his oleaginous persona as a model for the corrupt "bad guy" politician character. This guy is so greasy, he could lubricate an entire arsenal of AR-15s just by breathing on them.

            Hit or miss with that shop. Some SSE guns were listed as multi caliber so when you went to CCW them the OCSD said no.

            You paid your dollar you took your chances on what version of Mike would serve you. Happy Mike or bi-polar Mike.

            Spent a ton at that shop before I went over to OC Guns much better service.

                Sad to hear that. OC armory is one of the best gun shops in OC. Best of luck to Mike and his crew

                  Sad to see this happen. Always had a good experience there.

                    What pushed them to close their doors?

                        ^^^^This .

                        When you have stuff shipped in from out of state, you either just have to bite your tongue and put up with his shyt or have them shipped back. Had to deal with that once and was more than happy to find another FFL . Eventhough Turners would not be my first choice but I'll go there over that place anyday.

                          I got my first PPT done there. Mike was very helpful and awesome service. Another great asset to Calguns and 2A, gone.

                            Sorry to see another shop close, though I'm not surprised given the state we live in. I bought my first 1911 through Mike. The store was really busy when I picked it up, but Mike took the time to show me how to field strip it. I thought that was first class service.

                              It was a good shop, I liked their logo. I might go to pick up some t shirts

                                Mike was always helpful and I'm sorry to see this local shop close.
