Accurate Firearms

I want to say this store is the worst gun shop around. I can’t speak for the range since I was at the shop. I always liked the guys at the range. And i used to love this store and was my go-​to gunshop for years. But speaking As a former employee of the shop, I can say it is THE absolute WORST place I’ve ever worked and shopped at. Way over priced and a boring selection. Time and time again, I watched them rip people off on gun trade ins. An M1A with 1k+ dollars worth of parts and magazines that’d equal about 3k or more including the gun? 800 bucks. Employee discount? Used to, but the owner changed his mind and made up random rules out of nowhere so he’d have more money. Which the managers did all the time as long as it catered to them. They had no clue what was really going on at most points. They’d just pull BS out of their butt and contradict themselves. They have no management skills whatsoever, no organization, and very unprofessional. They couldn’t make a schedule for anything. I’m convinced they never really worked a real job prior. Yet they’re in charge! One of my managers knew almost nothing about guns at all! Common sense there does not exist. I had a gun on layaway, and had the money to pay it off. But it took about a week to get it out because they were too lazy to go tell the owner (for what stupid reason i don’t know). Which brings another point up. If you want to buy a gun as an employee, you have to ask the owner first incase he wants it. So even if you have the money, if he wants it he can take it out from under you. They make rules up as they go. I always had the perfect description of the shop. It’s like the Krusty Krab from spongebob. You got the extremely cheap and greedy Mr. krabs (the owner), the rest of the employees as Spongebob, who are super neieve about how bad he treats them and worship the ground the owner walks on. And their life revolves around the shop. Quite literally. They actually made an app for themselves on their phones to watch the shop cameras from home. THE MANAGERS. Not just the owner. Just because they want to. The customers were awesome. I’m still in contact with alot of them. I’ll say the gunsmith is really cool though. Nice guy who knows his stuff. So after my personal experience, I advise EVERYONE to not shop there and find a better deal pretty much anywhere else. Which isn’t hard.

BUYER BEWARE! A few months back, I purchase a Sig Sauer pistol from this retailer. A couple days after I purchased, I realized they sold me a pistol with a broken safety. I returned to the store and showed them the issue. They agreed to send it back to the manufacturer, as long as I paid for the shipping. They also wrote down the wrong serial number on my paperwork for my pistol, causing me even more headaches. No one in the store has been helpful, respectful, or cared about my situation. They have not kept any of their promises about following up with me or even sending my gun in for repairs– with the exception of one worker, Delaney was her name I believe. Finally, I decided to call Sig directly to get a status update, and it turns out they have not even received the gun, even though Accurate promised they shipped it in weeks ago. At this point all I want is my money back in the form of a refund. They have costed me enough time, frustration, and headache. They are refusing to grant a refund, but said I can speak with the owner. Hopefully they keep this promise, but given their track record, I am not optimistic.
Update: I received a call from the owner, Jim, and rather than an opportunity to review the problem and come up with a solution together; I was simply yelled and screamed at, interrupted constantly with more screaming. When I politely asked him to calm down so we could have a rational conversation, he informed me his screaming was normal, that I didn’t know him, and that if I wanted to hear screaming he would be happy to show me.

I was here to shoot my new Sig P320 pistol I got else where. They have you fill out a lot of paperwork before getting into the range. Which is kind of annoying, never had to anywhere else. And I go quite a lot. Range is nice, shoot as fast as you can control. Some places don’t let you double tap. Nice, small place. Not the best prices around for firearms. I go to Guns Galore for the best prices. $ 50 bucks cheaper at Galore than Accurate for this pistol. Good shooting.

Got a Father’s Day gift certificate to this place for the BF’s CPL class. Class was booked with a week’s notice and no advisement was received that the shooting takes place offsite in FLINT. No bus is arranged to take you there, you have to take yourself. Class notification was updated to end at 7pm vs. 5pm as stated on the website. This was indicated on the day of the class taking place. You’d think that if you’ve been doing this awhile that you’d fully inform your customers about this. Kind of an important details, I think, in case one had dinner plans on that day or were dropped off or something. Highly annoying as I would had sought out another place if I knew this ahead of time. Reason I picked this location was because I thought it was convenient and close to my home. Supposedly the owner is building a shooting range close by sometime this year.
Class is held next door at the owner’s other place of business. Pizza, salad and soda were served for lunch. Only one bathroom for a large crowd of people in attendance and only a Keurig-​style coffee machine available. So, basically, you’ll be waiting awhile on the caffeine fix in addition to peeing.

For lack of better Unilocal catagorization I’m stuck listing Accurate Firearms as a gun range, it isn’t. This is a gun store without a range.
Inside the store you’ll find a great crew and unlike other local stores there is a wide variety of different makes and models. What really sets Accurate apart from the pack are the prices, I’ve found them to be well underneath the competition.
They also offer CPL classes which is held in a very nice room.
It’s hard to fault them however I have run into the situation where a particular item that they carry was not available because they took it to a gun and knife show.
