I have never purchased anything from these folks. I was looking for something today and found myself at their online store. These guys have some pretty dang good prices. For example a Nikon scope for $362 that is $429 at SWFA. New RCBS dies for $27. This might be old news to some, but I was pleasantly surprised. I doubt that my wife will be though. Ken

Bristoe seems to drop in there on a weekly basis, he lives nearby and says nice things about them. I've driven to Lexington three times lately and never caught them open, so I have nothing to say about them.

Tell her they were a great deal and you bought them on sale and SAVED money! Of course, make sure you have a comfortable sofa.

I have bought guns from them more than once...and no complaints at all.

I've purchased a couple of rifles from them through Gunbroker and never had any problem.

I googled them a while back when I was looking at a possible purchase and all the negative stories turned me off a bit.

I bought two guns from Buds and did one trade with them. My family bought another three guns from them.
Prices are very good, service great but shipping slow.
I would use them again.

I have used them on 4 different gun purchases. Each time I have been treated fairly and was quite happy with the overall experience. I think they are in a newer facility than they used to be, a bit larger from what I hear.

Several purchases, great experience each time. I'll start there first should I ever go back to buying new guns.
