Questions & Answers

Q: I got couple question do you guys have a age requirement to get to the shooting range and the other question do you guys rent the guns to shoot or I have to bring my own gun

A: I took my 8 year old son shooting for the first time at 2nd amendment, very helpful and nice staff. When I went, the girl up front said there is no age limit, as ling as legal guardian or parent is present to sign waver. Hope this helps! Enjoy 🙂

- Ramiro Sanchez (6 years ago)

A: There are 3 levels of membership. They do allow kids to shoot but I don't know the minimum age. They rent guns or bring your on. The lower levels of membership must buy ammo there.

- Carl Atchley (7 years ago)

A: Do you rent guns to target practice?

- Kirby Cook (4 years ago)

A: We were able to rent everything. Fantastic service

- David (7 years ago)

A: Yup, she's right.... Also they've got alot of guns and accessories to buy. Great place!

- Dan Ingram (7 years ago)

Q: What is the process to use the shooting range?

A: You have to fill out paperwork. Bring a valid I'd. And pay for a membership. Depending on the level of paid membership you can either bring your own guns and ammo or rent their guns and buy ammo there. Friendly staff I would recommend.

- Jack Crow (5 years ago)

A: Can my adult sons and I can rent and shoot perhaps a Glock and an Uzzi in December?

- Roger Watson (3 years ago)

A: How much is the cost of the membership?

- Abel Hernandez Ceballos (5 years ago)

Q: I want to introduce my girlfriend to the sport. Is this a good and helpful place, or should i try berdoo canyon? How much is it to rent a range?

A: If you know all the safeties of shooting, my suggestion is Berdoo Canyon. I prefer an outdoor range. Second Amendment is great, but indoor shooting is super loud. If you go to Berdoo you have to take your own targets and police your area afterwards out of respect for others. Good luck and have fun. I hope she really enjoys it.

- Kim Freeland Gamboa (6 years ago)

A: In the middle of summer Berdoo sucks... Too f#$%ing hot, so the indoor swamp coolers give some relief. I don't know what lane rental cost, gun rentals are 9 dollars. I pay 20 a month for membership and have all my own stuff soooo.... Have fun!!

- Dan Ingram (6 years ago)

A: Controlled environment first. Take her to a gun range and get her professional and proper training. If she likes the sport on her own from the start you'll have you Bonnie for ever, Mr. Clide.

- Tony Billett (6 years ago)

A: The staff here are very helpful, courteous, kind, and have tons of knowledge.

- Kiri N (6 years ago)

Q: Gun rentals ?? For the range ??

A: How much is membership for wife and I

- Michael Divel (2 years ago)

A: Yes, $10 per gun BUT 'you must be a member of the range'.

- Charles Magda (2 years ago)

Q: Do you get certified for safety courses? Any documentation as proof?

A: Call Steve at the shop.

- George whiplemyer jr. (4 years ago)

Q: Can you shoot a 12 gauge on your range?

A: Yes

- A Albertson (4 years ago)

Q: Do they do gun repairs?

A: I know they give Lifetime warranty on all the guns they sell but they sent them out to be repaired by the manufacturer so you might want to call and ask first.

- eddsramm1 (5 years ago)

A: Yes they do repairs .

- Mark Aguilar (5 years ago)

A: Believe so

- A Albertson (5 years ago)

Q: Does second amendment sell body armor ?

A: Does second amendment sell level lllA plates for a bullet proof carrier ?

- francisco landa (5 years ago)

A: Yes

- Joe Valdez (5 years ago)

Q: Do they have SBR's

A: No

- spencer M (5 years ago)

Q: I got a question can I get my hunting license at 18? Or do I need to wait to be 21

A: Depending on where you live you can get it while your were young, I got mine when I was 12 in CA

I spend allot of money and take in allot of knowledge from ATF directly to know what I can and can not have in good old california. I try to bring in people to see what turners at PD has to offer but they always end up disliking the place. 1 out of 5 workers have no idea what they are talking about and that makes a discussion turn into a worker yelling at a customer and that will push people away from the range. Why buy firearms from someone who dont know the law.

If you call they put you on a hold for longer than 5 min. Along with that they never have enough staff to keep up with people coming in. Overall you are better off going yo Golden State Armory down the i10

Their on hold message is annoying. I called ahead and was left on hold while the guy went looking for a hunting vest. I had to hang up cause the automated on hold message kept repeating for 10 mins and the guy never came back. Got to the store and they had nothing in clothing So no real hunting vests only tactical vest. I’m sure it’s a great store for some but my experience was trash. 👎

The good reviews are from Second Amendment Sports, the store that used to occupy this space, there are better places in the valley to purchase or transfer guns, dont waste your time here, not even for ammo or the indoor range, go to Yellow Mart and shoot at Berdoo Canyon

Turners is so bad I became an FFL to help serve the poorly served Coachella Valley. Turners has gotten worse since it bought Second Amendment.

Don't waste your time here at Turners. Shop at Yellow Mart in Indio instead. They have weekend ammo deals. Check them out on Instagram.

Turners is a great franchise but this store has lost ALL company values . TERRIBLE STAFF & MANAGEMENT . IΓÇÖd rather take the hour+ drive to the Turners in Riverside where itΓÇÖs always a great experience . I suggest they look into a more friendly and professional environment and approach

My grandson and I were doing a transfer paperwork of an old revolver to his name. Staff were very knowledgeable about their selection and services. I don't think anyone would appreciate having their pictures taken but a very cute pistol caught my eye. Maybe next time.

After staring at the hand guns for about half an hour and listening to employees brag about sells they made and joke with one another, I am finally attended to. I did not know I had to pick a # until after leaving the store. After doing a sell for store credit, and them finding a gun that interested me; a Sig Sauer p320 M18 with a red dot sight, I decided to purchase it. After purchasing I am told it doesn't come with the dot sight. Well that's disappointing, that's a feature that sold the gun to me. So the dot sight itself needs to be ordered. I had one ordered for $289.95, or I was told for that price. After doing all the paperwork, safety test, and 10 day waiting period I went to pick up the gun on September 8th, 2024. I purchased a 1,000 rounds of ammo and asked where the dot sight I ordered was. The employee told me it was not on file that I ordered a dot sight. He said, "we have one in stock-" "Yeah, that's the one I ordered." "-For $399.98." "400 bucks!? You're kidding me right!?" "Let me go ask my manager". Manager: "I'm not sure who told you this. "The guy who sold me the the dot sight." Complete FALSE ADVERTISING BS! This is how you lose costumers right here.

Turners took over 2nd Amendment several years ago and the place went further downhill in my opinion. Service, customer relations, attitude etc...It used to be worthwhile to bring in quality firearms to trade in on newer items or simply post for consignment but even a simple option like that becomes a tedious game of negotiation which usually ends up with them insulting you with lower than low ball offers on quality firearms in excellent condition. My most recent experience with them confirmed my belief that they are worse then their predecessors. I had high hopes but alas, the corporate model these days appears to be screw the customer, there are always more...

Sorry if this is a rant, made a couple purchases back in May, took 2 months for them to get the paperwork right before I could finally pick up all my equipment. Because of the error I had to pay for the new tax and repeated dros's. I will never go back to the store again, I live out here and will tell everybody I ever meet not to go to the store again. Bad services is one thing, when they won't take responsibility for bad service that is even worse. 😡

I recently went in to look for a new site and to look at perhaps purchasing a new AR. Not only did we wait like we were at the DMV, the gentleman that helped us was not knowledgeable about specific ammo I was asking about and gave me misinformation about a gun that I own. They almost never have what I need. I ended up going to TimΓÇÖs in Thousand Palms and had a wonderful experience.

Cool staff, most know a bit about guns and ammo. Management blows, think they are too good for their job or something.

The people are friendly and helpful. Prices are outrageous but I guess that is CA for you. There never seem to be enough people working the gun counter so it takes forever there. The gun range staff is knowledgeable, friendly and efficient.

Amazing range. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I hadn't shot in many years and my wife never had, but the guys that helped us made it a very safe and enjoyable experience.

Tried now for a week to get into the store and start the 10 day waiting period for a weapon that I had shipped to Turners from Turner's website. They claim computer/internet problems. If customer service matters, the owner of the store would get busy and get the situation fixed. How can a business that relies on the internet for connection with the government to move business forward, not pull out all the stops to fix such a glaring trouble spot? Really disappointed with Turner's customer support.

Shopping at Turners is always a knowledgeable and pleasant experience. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They are very trained in ever aspect of safety and gun handling. Questions about anything I have no matter what they are they know the answer. Special orders are taken and communication is always amazing. I am so grateful I found Turners. I also enjoy the range.

I recently visited Turners Outdoorman to purchase my first rifle, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. Jovani provided exceptional service and expertise throughout the entire process. Despite some negative reviews mentioning customer service and wait times, I found these claims to be completely unfounded. Jovani spent over an hour with me, patiently discussing the pros and cons of different rifle options and ensuring that I was well-informed before making a decision. His knowledge and passion for firearms were evident, and he went above and beyond to assist me in finding the perfect rifle for my needs. I believe that a key aspect of having a positive experience at any store, especially one specializing in outdoor equipment, is to come prepared with some research and a general idea of what you're looking for. While it's understandable to not know everything, having a basic understanding can greatly enhance the recommendations and guidance provided by the staff. The team at Turners Outdoorman has a fantastic attitude and clearly loves what they do. Their enthusiasm for outdoor activities, particularly firearms, is contagious, and I felt welcomed and valued as a customer. Overall, my experience at Turners Outdoorman was excellent, and I will definitely be returning for all my outdoor needs in the future. I highly recommend them to anyone in search of quality products and expert advice. Thank you, Jovani, and the entire team, for your outstanding service!
