I went over to Turners West Covina to day. After standing around outside for close to half an hour, I got told by some little honey with a clip board that I can't buy a gun without making an appointment. I didn't realize that Turners was doing so well that they only sell firearms when it is convenient for them and not for the potential customer.

Orange Turners allows walk in. Probably LA county thing for Turners.Comment

I had the same thing happen at Signal Hill. The Maitre 'D stopped me when I tried to buy a couple of guns there on consignment. I called the next day 10 minutes after they opened to set an appointment. They were all filled up already. Wrote an email to "That one Turners Guy", but got no response. To paraphrase Yogi Berra, "No one goes to that gun shop any more.... It's too crowded!"
Fortunately there are enough other stores to support.Comment

They were allowing walk ins today at the Rancho location before 1 pm. No problems here had an appointment though.Comment

The waiting time for turners firearm purchase was bad enough before covid19. I don't understand why anyone in their right mind would want to go there now.Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.
One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Hmmmm....I don't recall ever having an issue at Turner's. I've had good to great service every time.
My only issue is all the looky loos that shop and talk but never seem to get out the cash or credit card...and just gum up the counter. The gun counter team has a lot of patience.
Anyway, I guess enough staff at the San Bernardino store know me and I always seem to get waived over to the fishing counter where we start business....then I am in and out in a jiffy.Benefactor Life Member, National Rifle Association

I went to the Signal hill store on a Friday and was told I need to make a appointment with the next one available was for the next wed. So I went to Fountain Valley which is closer to my home waited in line 45 mins. and bought a Glock 17. My nephew walked in to the Orange store with no wait. I guess every store is different. I'm on day 10 on my dros. And this was my 1st gun buy at Turner's and it was a great experience. Patience and a good attitude goes far when dealing with salespeople who have to deal with lookie loos and know it alls.Last edited by Tinknocker; 06-01-2020, 11:26 PM.Comment

Turners customer service
I've been disappointed with Turners customer service at times as well but I really don't think they are any worse than any other gun shop. They are all bad. Face it, this is California and a gun purchase requires a mountain of paperwork and a lot of time. I do think things are far worse now due to COVID and the new ammo law. You just have to grin and bear it.Comment

Needed a magazine for my Glock.
Stopped at a local Mom & Pop shop that a friend frequents.
Nothing on the shelf, the two employees didn't seem to care. Wouldn't even make eye contact! Maybe they don't like woman with guns.
Next stop was a shop that is a CG members.
Plenty of stock and $20 higher than everyone else!!!
I'll wait and go to Turners's.Mrs 38Special

But every time I drive by the Orange store there is a line outside. I take it that they only allow so many people inside the store at one time. So, does anyone have advice regarding the best time to go to the Orange store. I'm old. Time is one of the most precious things I have. I don't want to squander it standing in line.Comment
