Orange County - Good shops?

[Crazyhorse]

Hey guys,
Who do you guys buy guns/ammo/reloading gear from around OC? I really like Fowlers, I know they cost more but they have a massive amount of stuff to look at and play with. I have also had great luck with Randy @ Grant Boys they are a little bit more too but service is always good there. Turners prices on guns are pretty good and they have a lot of cleaning stuff but nothing for reloading and ammo is pretty high. Wal-mart is about the best on ammo but the locations around here don't stock much in the way of hunting/reloading gear. Big 5 has some good deals on surp gun but almost everything else is stocked at Wal-mart and about 30+% cheaper. I still need to check out Ade's this weekend.

I'm getting ready to be in the market for a few guns and some reloading gear, read saving more cash. It seems like I never see much in the used gun market around here. Any nice shops new or used I should check out?

You've missed a couple of good ones there. Ade's is always at the top of everyone's list, then there's Saddleback Valley Guns and Elite Firearms down in the south county off of I5 and Crown valley. Oh yeah, On-Target as well; haven't been in there in quite a while though.

Man that stupid plumbing commercial will alway stick with me. Go browse at Fowler's and Turner's, buy at Ade's.

I use Ade's for receiving guns I bought from auctions, forums, or wholesalers (and a few PPT's). You can also find good deals on consignment guns.
Turner's also have good deals on consignments and sale prices. On-Target for shooting or consignments. Fowlers for looking (once in awhile a consignment long gun).

All my ammo and accessories are bought on-line. Usually Midway or Brownells. (AR stuff- Bravo co., Adco, or PK Firearms)

I also buy from some of the sponsors here.

If you want good deals on reloading gear, get a C&R license. Then, Midway and Grafs is the way to go.

If you need gun parts, Brownells is the one.

All of the above vendors give discounts if you have a C&R. You'll pay only $75 (vs. ~$125) on a RRA NM trigger w/ a C&R discount at Brownells.

If you want guns, Ade will order anything you want.

You don't even need a FFL to get cheap prices at Midway if you have a reseller's permit. Brownells also gives you the FFL price if you register on their website.
