I first met Tom Allen at the SHOT show seven or eight years ago. At the time, Tom had a small-ish firearms/accessory business in Chesterland, Ohio. Tom and I made some small talk and he told me if I ever needed any SIG related stuff to give him a shout.
I got home and needed a set of sights a few weeks later, and went onto the Top Gun Supply website and ordered a set of Meprolight Night Sights for a P220. I remember I ordered the sights on Monday. They got to my door on Wednesday. Whoa. That was quick.
Over the years, I’ve watched Top Gun Supply grow into the largest supplier of SIG Sauer parts and accessories. Tom and Michelle have dedicated much to the SIG Sauer line of products.
Their growth seems to be linked to three things. A great selection, fair prices, and world class customer service. Over the years, as I have ordered more stuff from them, I’ve noticed that the trend that anything I order ships within hours, not days. I’ve ordered stuff on the weekend, and it has shipped before I roll out of bed at the crack of 0830. On the rare occasion I have needed customer service, they are always easy to communicate with, and fair. They also seem to genuinely want to stock the things that shooters want all under one roof. An interesting factoid that Tom shared with me was that during the great boom on 2013, Top Gun actually did not experience growth in profit. It is the side affect of those who refused to raise their prices and gouge. Wait, wut? Top Gun didn’t raise their prices to gouging levels like many businesses did (IE the $100 PMags that some dirt people advertised and sold). Once their products were sold, Top Gun ran into the same resupply issues that everyone else in the business did at the time. While it was a good month or two, the rest of the year was not all that until supply evened back out. The businesses who charged $100 for a PMag, or $60 for a box of 9mm ball don’t deserve our business. Places like Top Gun do.
Top Gun Supply is an amazing organization. Tom and Michelle started it as a small business, and now they have 17 employees and are looking at expanding to more stores.
If you are looking for an expansive line of products at good pricing, check out Top Gun Supply.
I couldn’t agree with more. I had a need far a Milt Sparks VM2 and could wait the standard lead time for them to build one. Top Gun Supply had it in stock and shipped within 24 hours. This was 2 weeks ago. It was my first Top Gun purchase but it won’t be my last.
I’m driving to Ohio soon and while my trip wouldn’t normally me by there, I’m going to try to make it work.
I’ve never done business with Top Gun, but I certainly will in the future. Due to the gouging thing you mentioned, I stopped doing business with the Texas “Dirt People” purely on principle.
+1 on Jones recommendation for TGS. Everything SIG and anything else they carry.
All that praise and no link to http://www.topgunsupply.com/ ?
Love this place. Being a sig fan it was only a matter of time till I ran into this place. Always have amazing deals on magazines, and every small part you could ever want for a sig.
Jerry I agree they are great I’ve used them as well and they provided excellent service! Also you might include a link to their site.
Another top-of-the-heap rating from us for Top Gun Supply.
We’re not Sig people in the slightest but we keep lots of guns for our various classes. When we bought a DAO 226 at a good price and needed to change it to DA/SA (not because we liked it that way but because our students were buying that configuration), I stumbled on to TGS and they were absolutely wizard getting me on the road to doing the conversion.
Max stars from us.
Unless you’re an LEO from California. They won’t ship any items to California LEO that the general citizenry can’t get, even though law allows us to purchase it for duty use. While I’m very pro second ammendment for everyone and I can see their hearts in the right place, it’s still irritating. I don’t see the point in punishing the individual officer for decisions the state legislature makes that I consistently vote against and speak out against. Do you think it hurts the legislature that I can’t get training mags? They don’t care one bit, in fact I’d bet it makes them happy. But it did hurt me for a class. If Tim Lau needed some new mags, Top Gun Supply won’t sell them to him. This could cost someone their life all to use LE who are on their side anyways as political pawns.
