So i stopped by today.  Good thing they have a map and store hours on the webpage, never been there before.  Easy to find though.  Had to circle around once and got a stall as someone was leaving.  As i was getting out my car another guy pulled up and asked if i was going to be a while and if it was cool to bock me in, didnt matter to me.  Went inside. Then inside the other room.  Was kinda surprised.  Store is pretty big.  Nice and clean.  Well lit.  Display glass was clean.  I was looking for a gun cleaning kit for my XDs.  Never did buy one before so had a rough list of what i was looking to purchase.  One guy helped me out, said this all in one kit would be best since i have multiple guns in different calibers.  Walked around a bit more looking at the guns.  They have super reasonable prices, i was actually shocked and offended other places charge so much!(joke, kinda).  Talked to another guy(younger guy), talked for a bit about ammo.  Ended up grabbing a box.  Was about to pay and he noticed i had the rifle kit not the pistol kit so he showed me the difference and whatnot.  Paid then dug out.  As i was leaving had 2 others looking for parking.

Overall was a good experience.  Nice shop.  Nice people.  Great prices.  I wanted to ask who carter was but was small kind shame to be walking in and asking like im someone important.  I will definatly head back to buy more ammo when the time is right, prices seem really good to me.  Also might be picking up my next 223/762 from them.

Oh and this is coming from someone not raised with guns, fisrt time ownership and a whole lot of learning to stil do so pretty much no experience

Definitely a nice shop.

Carter, by the way, is the guy running the cash register.
Your number one Option for Personal Security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.

Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

Good to hear someone sharing good experiences.  I've honestly never had a bad experience anywhere.

Oh that guy is carter, next time i stop by ill be sure to introduce myself.

Also noticed how the sensitive type can easily take offense to things said.  Todays example
Guy behind me has 2 boxes ammo.   
Asked "how he likes it in his rifle"
Customer says he gets a lot of drop. .5 or something like that i believe (dunno what that means)
"How far away are you shooting"
customer, 25yrds
"Well thats not much drop for that range"
Customer decideds he just wants one box instead.

I personally dont think it was offensive or anything, but everyone interpets things differently.  Still love the shop though.
By the way, where will the shooting range be? I noticed the chairs and stuff in that first room you enter in, as well as another door.  Just curious.

Just wanted to post how great my visit was to OGC yesterday.  I was referred to them from AR15.com and glad I went.
I did something I usually dont do and took the wife; the staff was very nice, friendly and answered all my wifes newbie questions. The staff  let her handle the "pretty" guns with no attitude at all.
I also was eye shopping with questiions and all of the staff was responsive. I have a decent collection and could tell the staff knew their weapons. The prices were mainland comparable, which was  awesome to see.
Anyway, it was a great experience and went so well ( the wife was impressed with the customer service and commented how nice everyone was) I have the green light for my next purchase, which will definately be from OGC.

Thanks Carter and Staff, I'll be back soon for the HK45 ! :D

I hate to admit it, but yeah that was me and the "wide", I told you she was a newbie.........
I hate taking her with me sometimes, but gotta get her into shooting somehow and yeah I know what it was.

The wife was probably in your way..... on the bright side, the HK45 will be mine very soon!

The Saiga  is a great weapon, an AK is next on the list.
