Precision Arms, Escondido CA

Every time I go in there, I come out more knowledgeable. The owner is very smart and has a cool selection of rifles at fair prices. Great little store with a great owner. Thanks John for all the help.

Great store with exceptional service. John is passionate, knowledgeable and more than willing to go the extra mile for his customers. He took time to explain the details of a weapon I had purchased online. I wish I had of gone to John to begin with and purchased directly from him. Let's keep the honest small businesses alive!

This is a great local shop with a nice selection of firearms, accessories, and ammunition. Would highly recommend!

Awesome little shop with great inventory. John, the owner always seems to have hard to find items in stock or is willing and has the contacts to find it and get it in stock. His knowledge and customer service are great and one of the reasons I use his shop exclusively. My son, wife and I have all recommended friends and family to buy from John.
Sometimes I just hang out in the shop and watch how John makes new customers feel comfortable and he never fails to answer their numerous questions and walk them through the paperwork. A true Professional and a pleasure to buy and learn from!
In response to the negative review from Jay McNeilly, my wife and I have both used our retired ID to make purchases and have never had an issue. As to the stock in the store, John drives me to spend WAY too much money, because he is ALWAYS getting cool stuff in that I can't do without!

Last year I called Johns store (first time) and he immediately was very kind and professional. We set up an appointment to write my safety cert and it couldn’t have gone any better. John is ALWAYS friendly and professional and on top of that he is VERY knowledgeable. I have since bought 3 firearms from him and have also had approx 7 other friends that I referred to him go and purchase from him as well. This is a direct result of how John handles his clients. I will ALWAYS go back to his store for all my firearm needs. It’s a perfect place if you are a first time gun owner or if you are an enthusiast. John is the best and I will always refer everyone I know to him. In fact I was there today and brought him another referral and happy customer

This has to be the most pathetic dealing I've ever had at a gun store. John wouldn't do a gun ownership transfer because my law enforcement retirement ID had the words " expired" on it. I showed him 3 times " expired" was on it because the original CCW date had expired on it. Directly below the original date was the new date, 2024, because I had requalified and updated my CCW. He just couldn't get passed the expired word, just couldn't commit to doing the paperwork. I told him obviously being retired, that's never going to expire, I'll always be retired.
There was one other customer in the store. One. He was there just to pick something up. John told me he was just too busy to deal with me any further because he had to get back to his work, he had lots to do.
I believe John is incompetent to own a gun store, and has some issues with law enforcement.
I drove over an hour to get there to meet the seller, who also drove an hour. We spent several weeks working out this deal.
Johns store is very small and lacks inventory. I won't be back, ever. Don't be like John.

I’ve never owned a gun before, but felt that it was time to be able to protect myself. I purchased two shotguns from another store and never received the safety training. I found John’s store online and set up an appointment. He was determined to help me learn how to load, unload, and safe handling of the weapon. He even offered to take me to the range to practice. He treated me as if I bought my guns from him. He didn’t have to spend his valuable time with me but he did and I am very grateful. I feel a lot more confident with using my guns. I will definitely go back and purchase from him and recommend that you do as well.
