Ive made 2 purchases from Goodland Guns both times the guys were very nice and helpful. Ive been to other shops where the all male staff spoke down to me and were not helpful at all. I recommend this shop to any woman in the market for a gun.

I purchased my first handgun and took the written test here and had a great experience. Dan helped me through each step and was nice, helpful, informative, and patient. I wouldnt hesitate to say that this is the best gun shop in town based on the customer service alone!You accumulate store credit for every purchase you make which is an awesome perk. They have a great selection of handguns revolvers rifles and more! They also are armorers and have installed sights and an extended mag release on my 1911 at a low cost and a 1 day turnaround time. 1 day!Overall highly recommended.

The owner purposely sold me the wrong item, and when I tried returning the item for a refund be charged me a “re-stocking fee” of FIFTEEN DOLLARS. I’ll never do business with this store again. This owner will attempt to take advantage of you so be careful.

Wish I could give zero stars. These people don’t seem to understand or care what customer service is. Remarkably unreliable. I would drive to SFV to buy a gun before I’d spend another dollar at this place. Too bad.

Make sure to ask questions about stuff you are unsure of because daniel will not help you at all, he will actually try to take advantage of you

Courteous staff, good experiences here. Make sure to go around to the back of the store, as the front entrance is closed.Although they can get backlogged with their gunsmithing jobs, they do great work. Recently had the barrel threaded for a muzzle brake on my Remington 700, and am very happy with how it turned out. Would recommend.

Super friendly and highly informed staff.I love this place Im probably here more than they would like. Lol. The service prices are extremely fair and Dan is always super cool about answering questions. From bulk ammo to consignment and special order this is the place to go.

Very friendly and chill vibe at this shop. It can be hard to find a Gun shop that is welcoming especially in the SB/Goleta area.

Went here on Saturday and had a good experience. Ended up purchasing a gun, so I will be back when the waiting period is over. Good store and two guys working were very helpful and also if they did not know the answer said that.

Never experienced worse service by ANY company of any type. Received misinformation from owner and employees, and asked owner to call me 5 days in a row with no returned call.All over a simple FFL transfer.

Put my Daniel Defense rifle on consignment here. Sold within a month or two - not bad. The problem is that I have been trying to get them to cut me a check for a month. The rifle sold 2 months ago. The manager tells me that the owner is not in very often. Maybe they are having money problems, but in either case, I cannot recommend consigning a firearm here.

Their website was very informative and helped me narrow the choices.I arrived just as they were opening on a Saturday and found several people waiting for the shop to open. Great handgun inventory, reasonable prices and excellent advice. Absolutely no pressure to buy . They offer both sales and gunsmith services along with ammunition.

Love this place, Daniel and Cooper are very informative and helpful. Purchased several items from this shop in the past few years. Great prices and if they dont have the item youre looking for they can order it for you. Dont be afraid to ask questions but at the same time follow their advice, dont go into any gun store trying to by a desert eagle or a kel-tek KSG for home defense and be upset when they recommend a glock 19 or something more practical for home defense. Just because you saw John Wick or Clint Eastwood use it doesnt mean you can use it efficiently or safely, especially inside a hallway in your house (try an indoor shooting range, your head will be vibrating)... When you choose a gun, Practice, practice, practice and then practice some more... They have downsized the storefront a few times over the years so the current location may seem small but its still the best spot in the Goleta/Santa Barbara area. I do most of my own gunsmith work but from what Ive seen and heard from friends they are top notch in that department.

Best gun shop in Goleta. Selection is thin but I blame that on the state infringing on our 2nd amendment rights. Exercise your 2A rights and buy guns here and at far west gunshops.

Terrible customer service. Tried to take advantage of me by selling me a $300 shotgun for $650. His dog chew my AirPod that dropped to the floor and he didn’t even offer any compensation or discount.

I am a licensed California Security Guard. I went in with a question about a 20+ year old, out of state, felony record and was told immediately to exit the store. I was not handling weapons and was there specifically in an inquiry capacity while I navigate my federal and states rights. My charge and sentence is from Oregon which automatically restores gun rights after 15 years of felony conviction with clear record.I left immediately as not wanting to violate laws and called Rick at Goleta Valley Gun & Supply - he told me no law exists about being in a gun store to ask questions, invited me down to his shop to get a print out of the California Firearm Eligibility Check, which was a great suggestion for seeking answers to some of my questions. I received the paperwork back yesterday and at least the DOJ states I am eligible. Rick was a big help I will go back to Golleta Valley instead of Goodland (which is just a few blocks away from my house in Old Town - and why I went there first.)Goodland - I understand being concerned with criminals and firearms. A criminal I am not, and I came in open dialogue around my situation. I would make sure employees are knowledgeable, honest, and helpful regarding gun laws. You lost a potential customer and my in-person referrals and reviews carry much more weight than on online review. I know alot of people.**Reply to owners responseCorrection in your perception. You were not courteous or helpful. I was asking for information and direction in how, as a licensed security guard, you would recommend - if anything - I should go about remedying my situation. I was not asking to handle or purchase a firearm.There are avenues for me (or anyone) to seek expunction, charge reduction, or otherwise to seek restored gun rights. As a firearms advocate and retail location, it only makes sense to me that you would be supportive and/or if nothing else direct me to a lawyer instead of asking me to leave before hearing why I was there to ask. I am able to apply for a Governors Pardon in Oregon, which would effectively remove the felony from my record and allow me to own a firearm - or become a LEO in California. If I lived in Oregon I would not need to apply for a pardon as they have a 15 year clear record restoration of gun rights. I was wondering and hoping that your experience and knowledge with firearms and California Law might give you privy information that might support me on my path.
