Great customer service! Everyone was very friendly, knowledgeable, & helpful. Prices were good and so was the inventory. I will definitely be a repeat customer!

A great place!! The Customer service here is outstanding, Denny was a real pleasure to speak with. He was experienced and has a very impressive background and wealth of knowledge. It was a great time there!

My first time visit was great! I was looking for tactical lights for a shotgun and a hand gun. Denny was very friendly and answered my questions. We discussed options, he showed me their selection and I was able to try out the lights. I really appreciate his expert and thorough knowledge and courteous demeanor. I selected two fantastic tach lights and the best part is, I know I can call Denny with any questions regarding future needs for weapons and accessories. Many thanks!

I was able to attended the NRA Basic Pistol Course yesterday. The instructor John was clear and knowledgeable. He highlighted what was important and made sure the class understood before moving on. Plus, they took time with each person to make corrections and make them feel comfortable holding and operating different pistols. Clear and easy to follow powerpoints. It was a fun course with lots of hands on training.

Excellent Customer Service, Communication and Professionalism. Always a pleasure to visit - they have items in stock and they are extremely helpful in any circumstance

Big Daddy Guns seems to be the only gun store around that still cares about your business given the skyrocketing demand for firearms. Denny did a phenomenal job helping my girlfriend and I today. He patiently worked with us to find her a gun that she liked. He was kind, informative, and made us feel that our business was appreciated. This was perfectly in line with my experience buying a firearm from here last year with the help of an older gentleman named John. Besides the outstanding customer service, the prices were excellent. Five stars doesnt do this place justice in my opinion.

Super helpful staff. Denny helped me find the product I needed, was patient as I navigated the process, and got me taken care of before I even arrived! Usually you pay more for the kind of expertise and customer service they have, but I actually saved money compared to what else was out there - and their in-stock availability cant be beat. They have a loyal customer in me at this point.

Super friendly on the phone and in person. Both Denny and Carson were super helpful. Went in to get some sights and a striker safety installed and was in and out super quick. Very good experience overall and would be happy to do business there again.

Really great experience. Went in for info on a 1911 and was treated so well. Denny is phenomenal, knows his stuff and is happy to make sure you know how to safely handle and enjoy your firearm. I was more used to striker fires like glocks and he gave me the ins and outs of how to safely handle a hammer-based pistol. Thanks Denny!

Bought a gun stock online through GunBroker. Picture was clearly tan. Item received was olive drab green. Bigdaddyguns refused to wave 15 percent restocking fee. Clearly a bait and switch. Find a trusted company and spend your money somewhere else. Buyer beware of Bigdaddyguns.

Great store. Good prices. My only complaint is about 2 weeks ago I came in and bought 300 rounds of 9mm, 250 rounds of green tip, and 500 rounds of wolf 7.62. As I was checking out one of the employees told me thered be a sale on steel cased ammo next Monday (i.e. today). I went in today, picked up 1000 rounds and there was no sale at all. As you can imagine, this left a sour taste in my mouth since I had went as far as liquidating some assets to buy several thousand rounds before the Resident Xiden ban on Russian ammo imports. Had I known there was no sale, Id have went ahead and bought it in bulk online last week and had it delivered for about 34 cpr instead of the 44 cpr I ended up paying.

Guillermo attended us, and he provided me and my husband extraordinary customer experience. The moment he saw us, he called us over to the counter, let us hold as many firearms as we liked to see, and was very informative on the best ones, as well as on the best knives, gear, methods for engraving, etc. We will definitely make this our go-to shop for our firearms needs.Also, this shop has an excellent firearm selection and prices. Ask for their membership discount option for even lower prices––I purchased my Glock 43x for $100 less by paying $0.99 on a membership that I can cancel at any time.

I am new to the gun world and had a bunch of questions so I called the store and spoke with Denny and he was amazing at answering my questions, made me feel completely comfortable in asking these questions that I’m sure he gets asked repetitively AND invited me to come to the store so I can see and feel the difference in gun options. I am super impressed by how respectful, informative, and knowledgeable they are and not one single time did anyone try to force a sale on me. And in fact guided me to a gun that would be best suited for specifically me! I cannot wait for the inventory to re-up because I am DEFINITELY coming back!!!

I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door. I told them what I wanted and they got what I came for and checked me out. Had a great conversation with Denny about their services and support to their customers. Great customer service! Will be back to purchase in the future!

The customer service of this store and company as a whole is exceptional. I live over hour from this store n make the trip out to get items because of best prices and the most important part excellent customer service I receive.The staff is exceptional and very knowledgeable and will never treat you less than for asking a questions.I have never been treated as anything less then a valued customer. That to me is the most important part of why I will drive the hour plus to this store and be a life long loyal customer.

Denny has always done me good great customer service! The prices on ammo are very good they always have what i need in stock, great gun choices. Great job guys 🤙🏼👌🏼

Great experience! Only bought ammo this time however Guillermo was extremely friendly, polite and full of knowledge. He was able to answer our questions even before we asked them! My wife and I will definitely be making the 4+ hour drive to visit again!

I went in the store with no intentions to buy anything. With the help of one of the employees Mr.Denny I walked out a happy man. I brought some ammo, looked at some upgrades for my ar, and most importantly I walked out with a little more knowledge then I walked in with. He definitely took his time to help me and displayed good customer service.

I had the best experience here today looking for a holster! Denny, Malynn, and Layne were so nice, friendly, and helpful!! I’m grateful that Malynn was able to provide insight from a female’s perspective, and Denny and Layne provided great recommendations as well. I found what I came in for and left a happy customer!

Denny was a solid man and knew what he was talking about. Super good customer service and super good selection of firearms. I came in with little to no knowledge about purchasing a firearm and they helped me get everything together and walked me through the steps. Like i said, denny was super nice and you should definitely ask for him when you go :) -mikey

The McKnights are a wonder family who have build a great business. Their store employees are always helpful, it offers very competitive prices, and delivers great attention to their customers. I wouldnt want to go anywhere else.

Denny was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I live out of state and Big Daddy Guns had a firearm I have been trying to find for quite some time but haven’t been able to due to the pandemic. Denny had no problem shipping it to my local FFL dealer and he had it packaged up the same day. If I lived in Florida, this would be my go to gun shop.

I’m new to the gun fam and was slightly nervous about getting started. After looking around, they had the best prices to offer. Denny was very informative and helpful on making me feel comfortable about my purchase. Carson also helped in guiding me with the right equipment and accessories I needed for my gun. Highly recommend Big Daddy Guns to anyone looking to get into the gun world or to add on to their collection!

Denny was amazing at answering all my questions and helping me with the purchase of my new XDM. He also helped me get a screaming deal on my purchase. I highly recommend Big Daddys. Thanks again!

Went here for a few accessories and got exactly I needed. After getting home I realized I didnt have hex keys long enough to install my Mlok part, so I brought it there and they hooked me right up. Best customer service, best selection, hands down.

If there was anything lower than a one star believe me id chose it. Dropped my gun off for service, never got a straightforward honest answer and always received a runaround as to when my gun would get picked up or supposedly looked at by one of their guys. Over a week of just sitting at their shop and obviously had absolutely no work attempted on because after having to pick up my gun for no service was able to get it resolved in less than 5 mins with an outside source.Great choice of ammo and weapons but poor attention and service to customers. Definitely not returning for service.

Decent inventory but didn’t receive help from the staff. They had plenty of employees available - some walking around and some behind the counter.

My first visit to this store was on September 8th, 2020 .. Amanda was very very helpful, courteous and patient. She told me about Big Daddy Unlimited as well (which is a separate awesome review).Their staff is super courteous and patient and helpful. Ive worked with Amanda, Chris and John thus far and each time has been an awesome supportive experience.I would absolutely recommend a visit to this storefront for your needs ... Its hard to imagine a better level of service and support for patrons!Go America!! 2A!Get Some!!!

The last gunstore messed up my build but grabbed a great bipod here and Denny noticed my scope was installed sideways. He not only reinstalled it free of charge but made sure it was torqued down correctly as well. Great service and merch.

Never having been in this store, I really didnt know what to expect. I did however have a fairly clear idea of what I was looking for. Denny is who helped me. He answered all my questions, gave me a few pointers, all while helping me find exactly what I was looking for. Very professional. I will definitely be back.

Had an awesome experience at Big Daddys today. Guillermo and Denny were very helpful and provided excellent service. Thanks guys will definitely be back.

Disorganized and subpar service. I had them build a very expensive AR-10 for me. When they finally completed it, I took it to the range to adjust the gas block etc.. I could never get the bolt to catch open. After about 20 rounds, I had a misfire. The firing pin retaining pin broke. I looked at it and it was an AR-15 retaining pin, not the AR-10 pin that should go with the bolt. I went to the shop to get some help fixing things and they pushed me off on the bolt manufacturer....... Needless to say, BDG installed an ar15 retaining pin and an ar15 silent captured spring buffer system in my AR10 which wont allow the bolt to catch open. I had to spend an extra couple hundred bucks to get AR10 parts for the AR10 they built for me.. I would recommend building your own AR and not trusting them do it. Lesson learned.

Denny helped me out tremendously with my purchase of a Ruger 2245 and all kinds of accessories. I really wanted to come in and meet him after talking to him on the phone last week. He had a lot of great information that really helps me and is very enthusiastic about Guns and the business. Thank you Denny and BDU for great service and products.

If youre looking for a gun at a good price, this is the place to go. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely will go back.

Carson, Mallyn, and Denny were great. Rather you have a lot of experience or new to firearms, these folks are very helpful.

Knowledgeable staff good, prices on ammo

Great staff, awesome selection of ammo, walked out with my baby in under an hour. Cool store, will return for sure. Also, great rates on 5.7 ammo!

Good inventory and selection of guns. Just unhappy with the service. I first time went in,wasnt greeted. Which isnt a problem, but they greeted the man that came in after me. Wasnt really asked for help either. I bought ammo and left. Didnt really feel welcomed. Then today I thought I would give a second chance. Well I was greeted this time. The guy cashing the man out in front of me, was having a nice conversation. Then when I went to check out he just told me my total. Didnt really think anything of it until he started having a conversation with my boyfriend who checked out right after me. I feel as a young woman so unwelcomed in the store.

My husband and I went to Big Daddy Guns for the first time today. The staff is so knowledgeable and helpful. I’m not an experienced gun handler and Denny took time to help me feel comfortable with my purchase. Thank you to the entire staff! We will be back!

Denny and the guys there have always been unbelievably helpful with my countless questions ive had there about various firearms, and AR parts. Even when my wife has gone into Big Daddy Guns by herself shes even told me how they answered any questions she had and in no way where bushy like other shops on what she needs. Been in and out of this shop probably about 2 dozen times since November, and its always been a positive experience.

Big shout out to Denny for his customer service and overall professional attitude.

I was very pleased with Big Daddy Guns. They have a lot of good quality stock. I apprecited that the store was well lit and clean. Sometimes at gun stores I find that, as a women, I dont get treated seriously. The staff were all very friendly and helpful especially Denny who helped me with a veterans discount. I will definitely be going back.

Great store and people. If u go ask for Lugo. He is the reason I go there and I tell my friends to go. Tons of knowledge and will listen to your needs.

After multiple purchases i have made this my go to shop. Went to pick up a purchase lastnight my background check took a lil long with it being at the end of the day. Went back this morning when they opened Denny and staff were friendly and eager to help had me in and out in 10 minutes. Combined with big daddy unlimited i can pretty much find everything i need.

Fantastic business with great employees! Always eager to answer question and provide insight. Chris and Renee went above and beyond on my visit today. I will definitely be returning on the regular! Highly recommended.

First timer and I was treated so well. Helpful and caring staff

Went looking for ammo and Denny helped me out and got everything I was looking for definitely going back

Came in here for the first time visiting my girlfriend in Gainesville. Denny and Chris provided excellent assistance and gave me a great deal on the ammo I needed. Definitely coming back next time I’m in the area, thank y’all!

Big Daddy Guns in Gainesville and Ocala have a large assortment of guns. The staff is quite knowledgeable and goes the extra mile to make sure you are satisfied with your purchase. They offer many types of accessories for your first time purchase or your existing arsenal. Thank you Denny for your patience in helping me select the right gun .

By far the best experience I’ve had at a rifle store in Gainesville. Lugo & Denny were incredibly attentive and helpful. Will be recommending you all to others after such a great experience. Many thanks to the team

I purchased a rifle and had excellent help with Lugo. He answered my questions and got me through all the paperwork. They were out of my ammo that day, but when I picked up the gun 3 days later, he had reserved some ammo for me from their last shipment to the store. Denny also helped me when I picked up the rifle and he was very helpful as well. I signed up with them to get my discounts.

Denny was a great help today. He answered all of our questions and took time with us. We appreciate all his help. I love my new Henry Rifle.

Denny was very helpful and informative! Great price on ammo. My wife was very pleased with the shop and purchase.

I will start by saying, the customer service was great, but as I approached the store, there were several men standing around the entrance of the store smoking. It was a little intimidating. My anxiety was assuaged when i entered the store. I was greeted and assisted by Lugo. He gave me very good information and a quick tutorial on how to handle the firearm that I was considering. I recommend Big Daddy Guns for your firearm and ammo purchases.

Not bad, but dont have what Im looking for, so not worth the membership to me.

I went to the Gainesville location to get a handgun&was greeted immediately. Sales associate Denny offered help to me. Then he got me thru the required paperwork, suggested and signed me up for the club membership and made sure I was comfortable with my purchase. He offered suggestions & accessories. I definitely recommend this store & Sales associate.

Excellent customer service from Denny today! I been to Big Daddy Guns 3 times, and all 3x nothing but excellent service from him.

Me and my wife walked in today looking to get her another handgun for home defense. Upon walking in Mr. Denny helped us out and showed us a selection of handguns that my wife would be interested in as she liked the feel of her glock and wanted something similar. Mr. Denny showed us the HK VP9 pistol and she was instantly in love. We settled on getting this handgun and before cashing out Mr. Denny informed us of a membership they have that can save us money on everything in the store. He informed us on all it covers and for the price per month being 9.99 you can not beat that. So not only did we get the gun my wife loved we also got it for a good price and will definitely be using that membership to the fullest. If you see this Mr. Denny, thank you very much for the excellent service and information.

Best gun shop ever! The staff is super friendly and helpful. Get a BDU membership and you’ll save money on basically everything in the store! Cheapest ammo in town too!

Denny is the man! Very knowledgeable! Staff overall excellent!

The staff is kinda choosy about who they greet and give good service to. Its like they dont want to be bothered.

Nice friendly staff. Thank you Carson and Dalton. Highly recommend the membership. Awesome savings.

I am very pleased with Big Daddy guns! I purchased several guns from them and they were very helpful, courteous, and efficient. The prices were very fair as well. I would highly recommend them for any of your firearms needs!Carey B

On February 3rd I ordered a Beretta 12/28 O/U shotgun using the BD unlimited website in which I am a member. I was informed that the arrival of the shotgun to be shipped to the Gaineville store will be about 15 days. That would be the latest date. I called in early February just to see the progress and was informed about software issues, which I was made aware of in January. I called this week and spoke to a representative named Rosa. She informed me that the shotgun arrived on February 8, but they cant find it. She suggested that she would speak with the manager from the warehouse, which I hope I have that correct, to ascertain where the shotgun was located. When speaking with her this Friday she would reorder the shotgun and send me a confirmation number. I did not receive a conf confirmation number.I have been using my February 3 confirmation number throughout these conversations. I paid over $2,000, back on February 3, and still waiting for the right answer to the shotguns location.Update February 24, 2021. I called again on Monday February 22 and spoke with Rosa, who passed me on to Jake. Jake heard my concerns and was following up with the Manager. Later that morning I received a call from Joe, the Manager. The found the shotgun after searching the last location having searched prior locations. The shotgun was misplaced. I was informed that this issue was discussed by the Co-Owner, managers, and other respective employees to retrace what happened to the order and how it shouldnt happen to another customer. I was please with the results, the explanation, and the honest assessment about what the employees must do differently . The sincerely believed that my concerns were important and the issue was to be resolved in a manner that did not leave the customer wondering if they will get a follow-up call.I would redo my assessment to three stars. Thank-you for your work and a satisfactory resolution having received the shotgun the same day.

Great selection of firearms and firearms accessories. The only place in gainesville that consistently has ammo and is not gouging. I would say if you are looking for a suppressor go here, there have a large selection of cans and a silencerco kiosk.

I moved to Gainesville about 6 months ago. I visited several gun stores and after shopping at Big Daddy Guns I had no need to go anywhere else. I bought my guns there, I buy all my ammo there, they walked me through the process of buying a silencer, which was super easy, and every time I visit this store (which is at least once per week) the atmosphere the staff creates feels like they are a family. The staff and the support I get from this store is beyond fantastic. Lugo, Carson, Chris, Dawson and Denny are absolutely amazing, I just love those guys. They are very knowledgable about all their products, very helpful, always professional, and they go out of their way to help me with everything I need. Thank you!

I was interested in getting the paperwork for an NFA trust. I wanted to ask some questions and was basically told oh you can go home and do it when I approached the silencer shop kiosk. Guess Ill do that and buy the suppressor online or from another shop and figure things out myself

Great place...super friendly and helpful...will be returning for sure!!! A++++

Recently purchased a firearm from Big Daddy and the experience was nothing short of amazing! Carlina assisted me with my purchase and respectfully answered all of my questions - the process was simple and a pleasure. Love the customer service and love the prices - I will be a long-time customer of Big Daddys!

Big daddy has been my go to shop since I’ve been in Gainesville. Great prices and if they don’t have it they can get it. Jeremy is the man and the whole crew has helped me out anytime I’ve needed something. Highly recommend them.

I went to the one in Gainesville and Denny was great help with finding all I needed. He told me about the membership I could sign up for and how I would benefitfrom the savings! I have saved a great amount of money and will be back! Im going to go check out the Ocala location soon too.I would give 5 stars but they were wiped out of ammo which is understandable.

Great service, great products!

Great selection, friendly staff and wonderful service. I wasnt sure what I needed and they helped me figure it out. Thank you, Denny for your help today!

Denny is the guy. Awesome service. Finally found 762.

Josh and the whole staff are awesome. Sometimes I come in here just to chat with them because they are always willing to have a fun conversation. Big Daddy’s is amazing, always provides great services and for a brick and mortar guns store they have good prices. Also, if you need something they don’t have in stock they will order it in for you.

I called ahead to confirm they had 9mm rounds. The girl who answered the phone confirmed that they did.I drive all the way across town and they dont even have the ammo, just planking rounds. Wasted trip wasted time. .

Bought and transferred many guns through them. Best gun shop in Gainesville. Great staff and great prices. Highly recommend.

Denny and staff have been the most professional and helpful staff I have ever been around thank you big daddy’s guns

Thanks to Amanda I have an amazing gift for my friend, Black Rifle Coffee with a mug inside an ammo case as the “gift bag!” Great for any hunter! Amanda is so creative! Thanks a million!

I attended the Big Daddy Guns concealed weapons class last evening with John Lugo and Connor, these guys did a terrific job. Very informative and presented in a patient and an interesting way, covering a lot of information without overwhelming anyone. I was most impressed by the concern John showed to students who were very new to the subject. Expressing concern that he wasnt moving to fast and giving them an information overload! Lugo and Connor answered so many questions patiently and accurately. With great demonstrations too!! I highly recommend this class and these instructors to anyone!! Cant wait to practice, practice, practice! I am anxious to see what they have in store for us next!!

Went over to the shop to get an AR, and the employees were very helpful. They had a huge inventory as well! 10/10!

Chris was super helpful and knowledgeable. I would recommend you speak to him if you have any questions. Thanks for appreciating our countrys Veterans with a nice discount!!!!

Bought a gun and some ammo from Big Daddy Guns, and it was a simple process thanks to Jeremy and the rest of the highly knowledgeable and friendly staff at the shop. As usual, no complaints.

Chris and Jeremy were very helpful and knowledgeable they helped answer my questions while also dealing with an aggressive customer they tried to defuse the situation and also made sure I was still helped.Ill recommend this shop to all my friends and family for all thier firearm needs

When my autistic son turned 5 and really started to get into things (all were safely under lock, key, code, or biometric fingerprint depending on gun type). My wife pushed me to down size. This was 3 months before the COVID-19 fun times we are currently experiencing. Regretting the decision, I reached out to Big Daddy Guns and Anthony immediately greeted me warmly and confidently answered all my questions, including the more in-depth ones. When every other shop in town didn’t have stock, ammo & firearms, Big Daddy did. He went above and beyond for me. I just wanted to send him a shout out and hopefully the management team there will take notice because he will be the reason for the purchase and repeat business. Give his man a raise or since guns are his thing, maybe a really nice one as a bonus. Keep up the good work guys, you’ve just earned a customer for life.

Only 1s in town with r Amo.Awsome customer service.See yall again soon.

While I’m not a big fan of the politics of the parent company Big Daddy Guns itself, this location is run very well by several knowledgeable and helpful staff, and the prices are more than fair

I took a pistol safety course with John and Connor and it was great ! I enjoyed the fact that they are both veterans and had an expansive knowledge of firearms and how they function, the proper way to actually shoot and not just like in the movies lol. I came in thinking I knew stuff already and left with even more knowledge ! Very good guys and they have an awesome beginner safety course for your CCW permit, with more in store for the future ! I cant wait to take more courses and do some training with them ...thanks guys !

I was in need of a part to do a repair on one of my rifles, they actually had it. I had never been to the store before, but I did find everything I needed and then some. Low pressure and plenty of staff if you did need help. As a Vet, they also offered me a discount, which was greatly appreciated. I plan to visit them again today. Highly recommend checking them out.

Great customer service, good prices, and great selection. Thank you Amanda M. and Nick S.

Friendly staff, fair prices. Given the current shortages, many stores and websites are prices gouging, BDGs prices have remained the same. This is one way to build customer loyalty.

John helped me select the perfect setup. Highly recommended for first-timers through experts.

Excellent store with knowledgeable and helpful staff.

Great experience and knowledgeable staff. Jeremy, Lugo and the rest go above and beyond for the customer.

Bought my first gun here. The staff were very casual and informative.

They made a small adjustment to my sight on the spot without me having to leave it with them. While I waited, I looked around the store and was very impressed. Even though they are a small store, they have a good selection of high end parts. Some things I would have thought of as internet only are in their store.

I wish some of the old reviewers would modify their ratings. This place is super friendly and helpful. I am a straight noob and the staff was very patient and knowledgeable with my dumb questions. Looking forward to going back!

Friendly staff! Very knowledgeable.

Friendly, expert service that was helpful and useful in choosing the right gun for me. These guys really know their stuff! Definitely recommend this place for first time gun buyers like me. I was sent to Big Daddy Guns by a very experienced law enforcement officer, so this place is obviously great for buyers from both ends of the spectrum.

I love Big Daddy Guns. Fantastic service, great prices. I couldnt recommend them more highly. And Tony has helped me special order a couple of items. Thanks guys!!
