Pros
  • Worked well with me and a consigner when negotiating the price of a firearm
  • Made background check process quick and painless
Started with an email regarding a revolver I was interested in. They helped give me some information on it, as it was from a gun show, and informed me that it was on consignment. I was able to send in an offer, in which they were quick to respond from the seller and we were able to make a deal in less than 30 minutes.

When I got to their place, they were happy to let me inspect the firearm to make sure it was all good, and made the process of purchase and background checking exceptionally easy. Nice people, good service, and I walked out with a revolver I'd been wanting for a good price.

My experience was a bit more niche, but I would recommend!

Pros
  • Lowest price FFL transfers, Excellent service, Professional, Fast and Easy!
Cons
  • Location (for some)
Steven Shipman provides very affordable FFL transfers out of his home in Tucson, AZ in the Catalina area.

His previous address was on Circle Z in Tucson Estates so note his new address if you have used him before or when searching for a FFL.

Being an AZ CHL holder, my fee has been $10 per transfer. Transfer fees have been going up, so I like to pay less if possible.

He is professional and easy to work with. He works by appointment to guarantee you the best service.

Give him a call if you have questions.

Protocol is normal. Call first before purchasing so he knows what is coming.

Pros
  • Excellent well maintained facilities
  • Friendly Helpful staff
  • Marked Ranges out to 200 yards
  • Staff provides Quad buggy ride for trips to 200 yard line for targets
  • Only $8
Cons
  • Not open every day
  • $8 might be too much for some who prefer outdoors
  • 200 yards might be too short for some wanting longer ranges
  • Location might be too far for some
I look forward to shooting on the weekend at Tucson Mountain Park and discovered South East Regional Park range is also managed by Pima county. I decided to arrive right at 8am and was surprised to find the range already half full of people ready to start shooting. Range officers were really friendly and helpful. I went to shoot short range this trip out to 50 yards. Each lane has well marked slots for distance making it easy to set up targets. Tape is provided and works better that staples when the wind picks up. There's a rolling magnet for picking up steel cases. Benches and stools are provided. Cease fires are every 15 min. People shooting long ranges can get a ride in the range quad to the 200 yard line.

This is an excellent range for sighting in Optics and calibrating your ballistic coefficients to fine tune your data. Similar to Tucson Mountain Park but better.

Pros
  • Great place for new shooters to get a "grip" on shooting
  • Outdoors with abundant Sonoran scenery
  • Friendly and helpful staff that knows what and when to say
  • Affordable $6 fee
Cons
  • Only open Friday, Sat, and Sun
  • Only 12 lanes so it gets filled up quick
  • Only 100 yards deep
While shooting outdoors seems like it would be easy to manage in Arizona, it is getting harder and harder to find a safe and fun place to shoot.
Tucson Mountain Park lets you have all the fun of shooting your pistols, rifles, and shotguns, without worrying about your safety or trespassing.

Tucson Mountain Park is a pleasant drive from anywhere. The scenic Sonoran desert is spectacular.
There is an excellent place to eat nearby called Coyote Pause Cafe where the food and drinks are sure to refresh.
Near the Cafe, there are galleries and stores if your "Significant Other" would prefer not to go shooting.

Managed by Pima county with helpful friendly staff. Since it's the desert, yes it's best to get there early. Facilities are onsite. ADA capable.

Easy to find, has 2 ranges, one for pistols, one for long guns. Shaded shooting area. Flush toilets. Freindly helpful range master. $5 for a day of shooting can't be beat. Also have shooting competitions monthly. Bring your own paper targets, steel targets in place already. Have fun.

I have done business here for several years buying, selling and consignment. Pricing is fair with occasional bargains. Employees are knowledgeable and helpful. It is a place I would recommend to friends and my friends that have done business there have been satisfied.

Pros
  • Great down-to-Earth knowledgeable staff, cheap FFL transfers with membership
Cons
  • Like most shops right now, selection is lacking...but that is hopefully only temporary
I've been a customer here for a few years now. They are great to work with! I have a membership, which gets discounts on just about everything, including FFL transfers. I love the fact that they announce Ammo deliveries via Social Media, too! Before things got "crazy", they had a good selection & would run ammo specials(5.56, 9mm, & 7.62 by the pound!). Glad to see they have made it through the scamdemic thus far, & looking forward to more business with them as supplies come back. Highly recommend this shop!

I drove up there yesterday from queen creek AZ. The bullets 500 copper coated were cheaper than other shops wanted to 250. And the powder was $10.00 less than local shops.

Store remodeling
Overall Rating

A great place to browse, knowledgeable all veteran staff and no snooty attitude. Good selection with prices to match, they take consignments as well.

Resident gunsmith, your online purchase transfers welcome. Vets & first responders' discounts too.

Membership is cheap, and can be realized with your first purchase discount. This works great for me.

The owner is remodeling the store, and has closed the coffee bar for the time being. Sorry!

Cons
  • On the air force base
  • Not always very easily accessed
  • Not always easy to contact
Tried to take my Scouts out for Rifle Merit Badge Qualifications and it took a while to make contact with them for when we could go use the range. The day that we were schedule to use the range we had to access from the mail side of the base since they changed the hours of the gate that provided near direct access. When we go there they were closed for inventory.

From what I remember of the range when I got to use it years ago the range is nicely laid out.

Pros
  • Dang near everything I need to reload, rarely out of whatever I need
  • Good staff, business wastes NO money on frills or fancy advertising so you get the lowest warehouse style price.
Cons
  • IT'S TOO FAR AWAY! Not the stores fault, by any means, but a trip to Brunos is a day trip event.
When I can get there, I never leave without buying something I needs, because they always have something I need!

I drove up there from Chandler to get what I needed. Simple layout, products on shelves, no BS marketing fluff or decorations or signage. No issues. No distractions. Good pricing. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. I will go up there again the next time I need more reloading or shooting supplies.
