Great place , excellent service , large selection,fair prices. If they don't have it in any of their outer stores , they will get it . In the past I have ordered not too common items and I get in a reasonable amount of time . These people will do all they can to get you what you want . I don't see the point of ordering a gun online , paying transfer fees , nevermind having a problem with the item when you get it . You don't save much in the long run . IF you have a problem and I have had none --- they will handle it ! Deal with the local people ! It's a good thing --- you walk in the door , it's hi how are you , they know you by name , this goes a long way . Merry Christmas to all ! So Support Your Local Shops with anything you buy .

Yes and no. You can save a few hundred bucks on a nice 1911 or AR. On a Glock or M&P the difference is not so pronounced, I agree with you.

 

And Rahway Firearms Guild is a nice place. Prices are a little high, but I have haggled them a little lower. Nice folks there. Steve? (younger manager there) was especially helpful.

Yup they are nice people at the Rahway store.

 

Another YuP on the prices being a little bit high. FG in rahway is the closest shop to me but I haven't bought any firearms from them, just yet. I have a friend that buys all his firearms from them.

 

A bonus for buying a firearm from them is that you get free range time at the Easton store.

There is a lengthy thread about the NJ FAGs already; you might want to consult that.

 

They have one of the best selections of handguns in the state for sure. If I want to handle a bunch of pistols and then buy one, I go here, feel them all, and then buy from these guys because I'm willing to compensate them for their having the inventory. It's fair.

 

Their rifle selection is OK, and they usually have a lot of lever-action rifles new and used, which I like.

 

Their ammo and accessory prices are criminal. I've only bought ammo there for a new gun in a new caliber that I wanted to shoot that day. Any other situation and you can get ammo at a fraction of the price.

 

As for friendliest, it's definitely variable. See my lengthy post in the other thread. I've bought perhaps 10 guns here at well over $10K, maybe $15K, and they are still snotty to me if I get the wrong salesguy. Gert, the other guy, is always kind to me and I enjoy dealing with him. The ex-Rays guy is also nice once he determines you aren't a douche, but he's standoffish until then.

 

On the other hand, if I have a bunch of case and a permit burning a hole in my pocket, this is the place I'd go to window shop, handle 20+ pistols and then pick out something fun.

Can anyone tell me how Rahway compares to Branchburg for selection and store size?

The Rahway store is significantly larger and has at least 2x the guns, if not more.

And is significantly more expensive than a lot of other places in jersey

Good luck.

Good luck.I shopped at that place for over 10 years.Never set my foot at that place again.

They best at taking your money.Nothing else.

 

Huh? Is that in English? Hahaha sorry I don't understand....

I went there when I got my first permit a few years back. I was excited and was planning to bring home a Kimber 1911.

Walked in and the prices drained all the excitment from me. They were higher then even the most expencive online seller.

I looked at one pistol thanked them and left as I did not want to waste there time or mine

When I first got into guns I got raped on a remington 870 express tactical. Never again

I bought my first 3 guns from them. (before I knew any better). I will still go there to compare guns side by side, and I do try to get a fair price from them but, I always end up buying elswhere. Friendliness and helpfulness are hit or miss at that place.

I think this is what people in retail call a "scumbag" (but I would never say that).

wow...a bit harsh. Maybe if their prices were reasonable more people would buy there

never mind.

I think it's great to shop other places because of price, I do that all the time. I don't try out all the guns at NJFAGs first and buy somewhere else, though, because I know what the guys who are paying for all that inventory I'm pawing would call me....

I've bought several guns at NJFG over the last few years mostly used, easier to negotiate on and, only a couple new. I've also brought friends there who purchased from them. The guys who work the counter are polite and competant. However, the last few times I've dealt with Joe the shop manager he isn't as apt to negotiate on his used inventory. Recently I tried negotiating with Joe on a rifle thats been sitting there almost a year,he wouldn't budge.I just feel after the business I've given him he could have been alittle more flexible.This is one inciden but, there have been other times also. I've gotten better deals recently in shops where they don't know me. There must be enough customers who go to NJFG who don't mind terrible prices. They obviously don't need my business and I'll make sure they"ll never get it again.

I supose it is a scumbag thing to do but, I have no problem being a scumbag to scumbags.

Don't particularly care what people call me.

It's not scumbag. It's what most people do when they shop.

That's true. I do the same at Best Buy. Go there check stuff out and order it on line.

Sounds like NJFG has become the replacement for Ray's, they always had a good selection but I never bought any guns from them because they were always overpriced. I did find myself buying other things (ammo, accessories, etc.) there at times because they actually had what I needed in stock, which as we all know can be a challenge in NJ at times.

I like how directed hostility and insults are now allowed. Real nice. If somebody called me a scumbag it would be an issue. A ball-less chicken s*it saying it on the computer is one thing but if someday said it to my face its on

I am kind of sorry I posted this . I have bought a number of firearms and accessories from these people in the past few years . But I have always gotten a fair deal --- if the gun price was a "little " high they made it up on other stuff . The more I bought the more the price came down . If you want go there and "kick the tires " and buy some where else --- go ahead ! Drive , order on the net pay transfer fees and shipping -- have a problem --- drive some more , pay for shipping , get a gun with a scratch on it that you would have seen in the store --- pay again . I wanted a scope put on my rifle that I bought years ago not from them ( my own mount and scope ) the smith installed it , bore sighted it --- off iI went NO CHARGE ! and said thank you for your business . So go to the net and get this done ! This was never ment to be a negative post . I was just saying how pleased I was and I will still go back again . Again ------

 

MERRY CHRISTMAS and A HAPPY NEW YEAR to all !!!!!!!!!!!

I think the problem is the OP was like one big advertisement for the place. I have bought from local dealers and have even received a better than online price. Ira @ Legend. He also has Zero issue if I get a better deal or find a gun he can't get me. Plus he's 5 min away.

No advertisement at , I could care less where anyone goes ! Just my opinion as bad as most of you might think . I will not post a bad opinion about a place , if I have nothing nice to say I don't say it at all ! To each his own . Peace !
