    Plastic feed lips and everything. Absolute shit. I talked the guy in front of me out of buying one because you can get 3 legit Ruger 10 shot mags for that price.
    My mate bought four of them on impulse and none of them worked in three different rifles

    You can get about 8 from Brownells for that price, they're all of 15 bucks each

    ... did I ever pay you for the two that I got off you? We talked about them a few times, but my memory is complete shit. I may have transferred money - I honestly have no idea.

    They are by far the worst on little things = $150 for nasty weaver rings (to fit your $4k SL8 ) MINT

    serious shooters are good dudes, the salesman refused to let me buy a shotgun that didn't feel right, even allowing me to try guns that were above my budget... Thats what I call SERVICE

    I've seen them trying to sell their Chink AR's to people as the BEST thing ever when they were almost 3k!!! I got my RRA for $2,800 so go ram that up your arse GS!

    Every time I go in there I get "Oh come check this out, we just got it in" and get shown some cool toys, and there's never any pressure to purchase. I've bought probably 8 rifles from there over the years and they always make sure it's the right one I'm after.

    One of the guys refuses to talk about the 204 with me (saying it's not what I'm looking for) and keeps trying to talk me out of a 22-250 because he thinks a .223 is far more suitable for my varmint gun I'm wanting to build (for long range bunnies). When I was complaining about my Ruger 22 not shooting right, they took it in (it's like 5 years old) and had a play. Figured out it was the scope, let me know, no charge. There are some good dudes in there.

    Plus they don't get cranky when I try to squeeze a deal out of everything I buy As has been mentioned, that's probably half the reason we get charged so much over here... because some people think it's rude to try to bargain. It doesn't hurt to ask.

    Same here, ive bought 3 firearms from this place, put me right on a couple of things, even told me to go home empty handed one day and 'sleep on it', and to come back if i haven't changed my mind!!!!!!!
    While I might not be as good as I once was, Im as good once as I ever was!

    What about their branded guns? Like the Gun City 870 or the Gun City AR-15? They are much cheaper than anything else that you can buy on their site and I've actually heard good things about them, particularly the 870.

    You get what you pay for.

    I've heard plenty bad about them too so I guess it just depends on what you want.

    I wouldn't touch one of those rebranded chinese AR15's. People have plenty bad to say about their cheapo shotguns... but hell for $299 you can't really complain. I'll stick to my Mossberg 500A thank you very much.

    We've sold a number of the Gun City branded 870's and one guy in particular has gone with his and has no problems. For the money I reckon they are bloody good value but I'd still probably shell out a bit of extra cash and get a genuine Rem 870.
