    I personally don't care for John Brown's. They were patronizing assholes to me but if you're not female your mileage may vary.
    Ace has the best selection and is conveniently near a Harley dealership and a casino so you can enjoy a variety of vices.Have fun!
    Nice to see I am not the only one.

    I can second this reference. I have been to Federal Firearms and it is worth checking out. Ace is also a very good choice.

    Ace is ok and it's where I bought my first firearm, but I've seen that some of the salesmen there can be a little cocky or condescending. Almost like they don't have time for you. I understand that things are a little hectic right now with everyone going crazy and buying up every firearm available, but that doesn't mean that I don't deserve to be treated like a customer instead of a number. It can be a little irritating at times...

    And just an FYI, I'd noticed that with them even before things went crazy.

    They're a great store for selection and if you want to get your hands on a few guns to see how they feel in your hands, but I'd prefer to go to one of the smaller shops as I feel some of them are a little more customer-service oriented.
