Best Online Gun Store!

"Buds has change the way I buy guns. Send directly to my FFL this competitive and often better prices store turned me into a loyal customer. Buds online store is well organized in a platform easy to use. Specially for me, a US Army Veteran living in PR, is my #1 choice to consider when shopping. Thanks Buds. Please never change. 5 Stars!"

Good transaction, slower than expected

"satisfied with the deal and transaction, but slow compared to other vendors of similar items; ordered a non-FFL item on Thursday evening (the 11th) and it didn't physically "ship" until the 15th based on the carrier data; Buds listed it as "shipped" on the 13th, but that was the date the shipping label was created; IMHO, it ain't shipped until its RECEIVED by the carrier and there is tracking info available; I would buy from Bud's again and recommend them for good price and selection, just know that in a highly competitive world of firearm and component vendors they are not in a hurry"

Ridiculously Fast Turnaround

"I had purchased the same in stock rifle from another well-known online merchant. They charged my card and sat on the order for a week with no updates. I looked at Bud's and they had the rifle in stock for about $20 less, so I canceled at the other place and ordered from Bud's. Within about 16 hours I had an email with UPS tracking information in my email. Exactly what I was hoping for from the other merchant. I should have just ordered from Bud's first! Next time I know where to go."

Unfortunate series of events

"While I used my legal name in all the correct fields for my purchase the system used my common name in my profile and thus delayed my order. After following customer service's advice and having my order canceled as they claimed they could not edit it I then attempted to place a new order for the same two firearms. Now I was informed that one of the two was out of stock. I find it highly unlikely that in three hours someone else purchased the same exact special edition with stern SAA revolver. I therefore proceeded to purchase both guns elsewhere. "

A rep from Bud's Gun Shop, BudsCS, has responded:

“We do apologize for any inconvenience. When an order is placed we must have your legal name because that is what we send to your FFL dealer. The name we send on your invoice must match what is on your Driver's License. ”

My first experience with buds

"The only thing I found that was difficult, was becoming a member and then given the information of credit card and so on otherwise I would give it five stars"
