    Red Skull Tactical - new gun shop in milpitas / SSE, etc

    Hi Folks.

    Today while dropping off my car to my local BMW repair shop, I noticed that there is a new gun shop opened in the former location of Valkyrie Arms in Milpitas. I spoke with some of the guys there -- turns out that they were able to use the same facilities that were built up by Valkyrie (safe, security, etc) but otherwise have no association with the old shop.

    They had a decent selection of pistols including some hard to find guns perfect for SSE - VP9, Sig P320, etc. I ended up picking up a P320

    Anyways thought folks might be interested that they have another option in the SF South Bay, especially since I always found that location to be convenient.

    I have no association with this new shop other than being a new customer.

    Intriguing. Perhaps I will stop by after work today.

          I just called and rep said they are open at the end of the month.

          They have a wait list for the VP9.

            tagged! i'll definitely check out the shop....just hoping you're right and has nothing to do with Valkyrie.

            i was one of the lucky ones who got my refund.

            i heard the owner/someone got sued...went to jail/prison? true/false?

            those *******s strung me along for over a year waiting for my pre-paid purchase, and it never went through

                      they seemed pretty good to me -- definitely less than BAGV. In fact not much more than gunbroker prices which is a good deal considering SSE fees.

                      Not sure, maybe they are still setting up. They sold me a gun though. didn't know about the waiting list, I didn't ask about the VP9

                      I have a VP9 on order somewhere else. I'm intrigued about the concept behind the Sig 320 (serialized trigger pack instead of the frame). Let's see if Sig follows through with this and releases alternate frames and slides to this gun.

                        I recently made two purchases from ebay that came out with the old address of Valkyrie Arms. When I got the packages I recognized the address. It had a different business name, though. I wonder if it's this same company selling under a different name on ebay, or if this is the third business to go into that address?

                        The following statement is true.
                        The preceding statement was false.

                          No kidding! I'd open up a "Happy Valley Bistro and Firearms" or "Sunny Farms General Store".

                          We don't need anti panickers protesting your newly opened "Death Bringer Guns and Ammo" shop.

                            I heard this place is run by Tim of Valkyrie and some dude named Van...also, I'm sure Tim has been at the location even when they had that whole 10-8 merge location in Santa Clara.

                              Can't be Tim and Van. Seems Tim ripped off so many people.
                              Must be new management. May check them out. Would be nice if the new owner posted here.
