How long?

[jsolor7]

WTF Turner's San Marcos? How long do I have to wait to pick up my gun? In one hour, the now serving number went from 82 to 85. Really? I have about an hour and a half after work before I need to be home and Turner's can't ever seem to get me in and out the door in that amount of time. How about hiring a few more employees to better serve your customers?

How many employees did they have in the gun section?

I was there last week trying to get an sks, missed it by a few hours. When I got there I was probably 7 #s back, but didn't wait more than 30 min, if that. They had what looked like at least 4 or 5 employees helping people out.

Take a number get in line.

What I have seen is that there are a lot of new hand gun owners so that means they have to take there hsc test then have to look at all the guns then they have to Ask a lot of questions and have to feel up all the guns then they make there choice then paper work so there you go no matter how many ppl they have working its going to be the same. Next time get there when they open

the stores are doing what they can with who they have. your patience is appreciated.

How about telling the politicians in this country to back the f**k off of the 2nd Amendment so we don't get a storm of goddamn noobs trying to buy every AR, round, paper target and Zombie-ammo-can they can get their stupid hands on? Turner's, like every other gun store, is swamped and they're doing the best they can with what they have. Even if they hired 5,000 people to help out do you really think these employees would be up to speed in 6 months or less? Probably not. Then people would be complaining about how long they had to wait because the newbie Turner's employees were incompetent.

With all due respect you're not the only person on the planet that needs to get taken care of....

LOL about the zombie-ammo-can. you're right about the gov't. Picking up a gun is fairly straightforward, maybe they can hire few more people just for that purpose?

No offense taken! It's just frustrating when you've been waiting for an hour (and have to leave without getting helped) while you're watching the Turner's employees play patty-cake and BS with the noob gun buyers for 15 minutes

At least you can get your stuff my stuff been on order since Black Friday and is MIA

[jsolor7]

Next time get there when they open

That's about what it would take to get taken care of by 5pm Unfortunately, I'm working all day and only have the evening to go there during the week.

The line at Turner's is worse than a freaking ride at Disneyland.

this story has been said many times here before... turner's is a chain store with hourly staff and the situation is worse with increased demands...

if you want quick personalized service, be willing to pay a bit more at a small store or FFL dealer where it's run by owners, not hourly staff who does not directly benefit from increased work load...

there are over 2200 CA FFL dealers listed on this link to choose from:

Sorry you missed out on that SKS.

There were 4 guys working. It's hard to tell because they keep going back and forth behind the counter and into the open area. Also, it seems like the managers aren't helping customers. Perhaps they should?

I think the employees get a kick out of watching people wait for hours on end and get pissed off, while they take their sweet *** time and feel the need to BS with everyone they help.

I hate to say it, but the US postal service is serving their customers better ...LOL

Unfortunately, you are correct. However, a good manager would seek to push his employees to turnaround customers quickly (not be pushy, but act expeditiously), in order to increase the store's bottom line.

And then you'll get all the " Damn Turners is only interested in money and gave me the bums rush" threads.

You need to understand the current situation ha them swamped, if you're aware of the problem, you'll have to try and go when you have more time.
