I have made several purchases with this company, and I have always felt that they genuinely cared about my business, providing insight and recommendations relevant to my interests when asked.Of the three local Tallahassee shops that I do business with, this one is my favorite by far. Prices are fair given the market surrounding firearms, selection is good, and there is very little on the shelves that I would consider low-quality filler that clutters many other stores. It is worth your time to check out this establishment, and to connect with people you can give your money to with a smile.
Everyone was friendly and they guide me to buy the correct gun for my use. Process was fast and they showed knowledge in every step
I bought a beautiful 357 SAA here and it shoots great! Red Hills Arms has friendly employees and is my new go to for firearms in Tallahassee. I cant recommend them enough.
Best shop in town! Knowledgeable staff and friendly service. Even tho I just came from work and smelled like medical cannabis I was greeted with a smile and assisted in the purchase of a firearm! 10/10 I highly recommend. I will definitely be returning in the future
Clean shop, had various ar parts, had guns and ammo available which was nice opposed to walking in empty gun shops. Employees were nice. Make sure to bring extra $$$ lol
People are nice to talk with, they are courteous, and professional. The only problem, which isnt their fault, but there is no ammunition to be had, how can you practice without ammo?I highly recommend!carolintallahassee
This store has more variety for someone looking at guns than any store within 50 miles. You walk in and see the guns and they catch your eye from the second you walk in. Im a mil-surp kind of guy so the selection is amazing. Most gun stores only care about the newer rifles, but they carry a wide variety of older rifles. I bought a Yugoslavian M59/66 and it was in excellent condition. Best service and selection around
Good people. Good prices.
Exemplary customer service. This is the first time I have used them and it was for a transfer. Great people. I can not recommend them highly enough.
Great local shop with very knowledgeable employees
Great, knowledgeable, friendly staff! They make buying, selling and transferring easy.
I purchased a shot gun from this shop very nice..Also I was a student an also worked at Walmart in Tallahassee fl. Being from newyork with no felonies.I purchased a nice shot gun .Cant wait to come back..
Great place with a lot of knowledge. If you are new to firearms, I would recommend at least getting your first one here. They will point you in the right direction, for sure. Ive purchased four (at the time of writing this) from them, and have been very pleased. Also, unlike big box stores, they have used guns that might be a great choice.
Super friendly staff!!! I love this place, ive come several times just to check out their inventory and they’re extremely knowledgeable and answer all of my questions. ive gone to many stores around town and this is probably one of the cheapest stores in tallahassee. most of the stuff they sell is at or near retail price. the manager and all his employees are extremely friendly. if i could give them 6 stars i would. i will definitely be coming here again!!!
Super friendly owners and staff, always very welcoming and friendly. Its nice to have a local neighborhood store like this in town where you can drop in and chat and get to know everyone and know that the people care about you too! Great prices and they can order just about anything you need.
Great staff and great store. Always have a few pea shooters worth looking at!
This a testament to Google Reviews. Red Hills has 4.5 stars and Kevins has 4. I came to Red Hills after going to Kevins Sporting Goods the day before... WHAT A JUXTAPOSITION! Kevins had 8 employees, 0 customers, and 7 of the employees either ignored me (at best), or did/said something to make me feel unwelcome. Red Hills, 3 employees, 3 customers, and I was treated friendly and profession by all 3. The young lady helping me, b/c Ive not been in a gun shop in 33 years, was kind, patient, helpful, informative and just plain understanding. I later found out she is a co-owner of the shop (Katie). In 2 short experiences, Kevins turned me into someone who will share my negative experience with anyone who will listen, and will NEVER buy anything from them, and Red Hills solidified a customer for life. Great job Red Hills! Keep it up.

Always a great experience with this company. I have purchased a couple firearms from them in the past and that was great. However, my last experience with them was the best yet and they probably made the least amout of money.The owner literally went out of his way to make sure an FFL transfer went smoothly. I had a firearm that would have been hung up in the USPS system for 14 days had he not personally gone and taken care of a situation that wasnt his companys fault.Thank you for your great customer service. I will continue to do business with you as well as recommend you and your company!
Used Red Hills for an online transfer, this was my first experience with the store. Red Hills made the process effortless. The staff is friendly and they treat their customers like family. Red Hills displays everything i would expect from a small business! You have just gained a lifetime customer!!
I dont understand why anyone would go to a different shop here in Tallahassee. The store is well stocked with a variety of guns, ammo and accessories of all types. The people working in the store are very knowledgeable and helpful. I have never had an instance where I stood there and waited for help. The staff actually knows what they are talking about. They shoot regularly and can help answer questions about holsters, carry positions and whatever else may come up.I have had more then one item transferred into the store and the process is easy and fast. Plus they are the cheapest that you will find in this area for a transfer. Plus if you give them a certain item that you are looking for they will find it and they can almost always beat online prices.Overall this is a great local shop that bend over backwards to help you out and keep you coming back as a customer.
The staff at Red Hills Arms is outstanding. Their knowledge of firearms is second to none. Tristan, Mike, Katy, Evin, and John are all experts in firearms and firearms accessories, and have always provided me with outstanding service. It is nice to go into a business where the staff focuses on the customer and their needs. Their prices are fair and always below the MSRP. I would recommend Red Hills Arms to the beginner as well as the seasoned shooter. Their transfer policy and prices are outstanding.
Simply one of the finest Firearms stores around! They go the extra mile to ensure you are getting exactly what you need. Whenever i visit a location I always check the google reviews starting with the lowest. I have to say what I have read (Negative remarks) is NOT indicative of this establishment. Great deals, owners work with you, and with rare exception Beat the pants off of their competitors! If you need a Firearm, This is a destination location!
Hands down the some of the best people and for sure the best gun shop Ive found since moving to Tallahassee. It was hard to find a good gun shop considering I was use to the Nashville TN scene and how easy things were to get and find. But these guys at Red Hills have definitely earned a life long loyal customer. Great customer service, very friendly no matter what youre looking for and readily available to help with whatever gun needs you have. Buy, sell and trade no where but here in Tallahassee!
Excellent customer service. Selection is great. Awesome staff and owners.For you to surmise about buying a bad gun or that someone else didnt give you half of what you paid for it is ignorant.Guns lose value, not much unless beaten to death or shot out but, the fact that you took it to a retail shop for trade-in or to sell, leaves the door wide open. No retail shop will give you retail on any weapon. How would they stay in business?Red Hills is far from being over priced. Maybe they charge more than online wholesalers, but are fair and its a local business which I will always support.Im not associated with the company and did not get paid to say any of this. Just years of experience with Red Hills Arms.Hate that someone gets upset about a gun they purchased years ago, and tries to blame a reputable company for their own ignorance or short commings.Trust me you cant go wrong shopping at this shop!
Friendly staff and great service
I have always had a great experience shopping or just looking around. They have a Very friendly staff and great deals always have me coming back. I would recommend anyone looking for a gun to see red hills! They do business right! Ask for Michael
Ive made a couple transactions here, and window shopped a few more times. No matter what I was there for, all my needs were eagerly met by the staff. You barely make it through the door before someone asks you if you need help, and they are always willing to take one off the wall and utilize their time answering all your questions. Great people, nice store. If anyone asks though, I lost all my guns in a tragic boating accident :)
This is a great group all the way around. They are friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. They make you feel welcome the moment you walk through the door. I have found my go-to gun shop in Tallahassee; I will be returning. Thanks again guys!
Red Hills Arms is the best location in Tallahassee for new retail and used firearms. I have had (and continue to have) a long-standing personal and business level relationship with Red Hills Arms. Hands-down, Tristan and his staff at Red Hills Arms are extremely knowledgeable, provide excellent customer service, and have an expansive selection of firearms. They consistently go above and beyond to make certain their customers are well-taken care of. Whether you are buying, selling..need bench work....or are looking for something out of the ordinary... I would highly recommend you visit RHA - You will be happy you did.
Mỹ fiance took me shopping for my Christmas gift, so we came to Red Hills. Im so glad Katie snagged us up when we walked in the door. As a female, she new the questions I would have before I had to ask them. Katie is very knowledgeable and friendly. Even told me which holsters fit the best in each position I may want to carry. Im very happy with my new personal protection friend. Thanks Katie!
Red Hills Arms is as good as it gets - knowledgeable, super friendly, and truly a pleasure to do business with. They have a wide selection of firearms and accessories and are more than happy to order a specific item for you if needed. If you live in Tallahassee, absolutely look no further than Red Hills Arms for all your gun needs.
I have bought all my firearms from this local gun store and have had not had a single issue. They are priced fairly (compared to other gun stores in town, both locally owned and corporate), show utmost respect to their customers, and have knowledgeable, experienced staff to answer any questions you may have. As a woman, going shopping for a new firearm is not always a pleasurable experience, but it always is at Red Hills Arms. As long as I live here in town, I will continue to make Red Hills my go-to firearms dealer!
Purchased a Glock 48 today from the folks here and was met with a great experience. Plain and simple great price and knowledgeable staff. Cant wait to hit the range! Thanks gang!!
I have been doing business with Red Hills for years. Buying firearms and transferring in handguns from online sales. They have always been extremely kind and helpful. Tristan and his staff go out of their way to help. They have a huge selection of firearms and accessories. Every time I stop in there is something new to see. I wouldnt go anywhere else.
My wife and I purchased multiple guns from Red Hills Arms. The staff was really excellent, helped us decide what would be the best firearm for us. The prices were the best in town. Dont waste your time going to other gun stores in the area. Just go to Red Hills Arms and save yourself the hassle of shopping. If they dont have what your looking for, they will get what ever it is in fast. Great experience every time.
One thing is for sure. This business works on integrity first. This is the kind of business you can deal with eyes closed. I am from today on a life time customer thanks to the core values this business runs on.Thank you Tristan
The owners and their staff go above and beyond to accommodate customers constantly. They have ordered several harder to find items for me and we’re able to either match or come incredibly close to price wise for those items to what they go for online. Tristan the owner is literally a master at finding rare or older firearms and I have learned a lot from him in that aspect. Definitely worth popping in to look around but you’ll likely leave with something new...
Thanks Guys for another great customer service experience. Thanks for getting me hooked up to the SIG Nation! Keep it up.
The guys from Red Hills are great! We went through three different handguns until my wife found the one she really likes. They gave me a good price and didnt try to take me on the trades.
These guys are very professional. The negotiation I had with a transaction went very pleasant. I have had multiple firearms transferred there since they have a good transfer fee. I will def return for future business. A+++++
I was looking at using another Tallahassee retailer for my Purchase and before I put my money down I decided to go and see what Red Hills may or may not be able to do for me. Lo and Behold Redhills (Justin in this case) came through with flying colors. I saved enough on that purchase that I was able to pick up a 9mm I have been looking at for some time! These guys are on the ball. Before you buy make these guys your last stop. Why last? so you can see what they are really able to do for you!! DULY IMPRESSED! Bravo Zulu Red Hills Arms!
Great selection and customer service.
Helpful staff
Great place with super staff. Always willing to assist and do what they can to earn your business. Highly recommended!!
These are some of the nicest people you will meet in Tallahassee, when you need help on finding that firearm or accessory that you have been looking for. They have very fair prices on there inventory (new and used).
Update November 15, 2018 to earlier posting: As a current update to my review of Red Hills, I completely concur with Senior Chief in passing along my outstanding compliments to the staff of Red Hills. They have an outstanding selection of new firearms and antique military firearms. I just negotiated a wonderful deal with owner Tristen who gave me a much more than fair deal today. Please disregard the earlier negative postings. Perhaps, this individual purchased the weapon and failed to care for it, thereby reducing the value. The staff is professional, friendly, and trustworthy. I have dealt many many times with Red Hills. They are extremely fair and the best in town. Whether you agree or disagree with gun ownership, do not disrespect and defame the livelihood of the employees here. Identify yourself and speak in person with the staff. They will gladly deal with you fairly. Again, I urge everyone to look at the overall 5 star reviews and disregard the one or two fraudulent postings here.If you are looking to purchase a new or collectible gun, I highly recommend you stop by Red Hills Arms. Do not let the size of the shop fool you! Owner Tristan Shelfer and employee Mike can order whatever you need, at great prices. They also are professional, extremely knowledgeable, and super friendly...compared to some other area gun stores. They are very fair and honest on buy backs or trades. No need to stop anywhere else!
Awesome staff here at Red Hills Arms, made the night process super easy, will be recommending them to everyone!
Good people to do business with. These guys are honest, fair and treat people good. If your looking for quality fire arms at fair prices, here is where you want to do your business. Tristan and Justin are knowledgeable, friendly, and if they dont have what you are looking for, they will get it for you.
Red Hills is hands down the BEST gun store in town. The staff is extremely knowledgeable, and will assist in any way possible.
Really fantastic and helpful. I highly recommend this place. Do yourself a favor and do not predicate any of your future purchases upon anything that Kevins offers. Dont go to Kevins, go straight to RHRs.
I have conducted business 2x with Evan and the staff of Red Hills Arms, with great satisfaction. I recommend Red Hills Arms for all your tactical needs.👍🏾😁👍🏾
Nice selection of products and friendly staff who spend time with you. I will go back again soon!
I bought a gun from here and 2 years later I took it another gun store to see what they would offer me for it come to find out the rifle I bought was a $300 gun and they charged be $750 for it.i feel very ripped off by this store and dont plan on going back I have bought 4 guns from them and countless rounds of ammunition.now Im telling all my gun owning friends to change stores and not go here anymore its just a waste of my hard earned money.
Friendly, knowledgeable, and good prices. Favorite store in tally.
Very good prices on ammo. The staff are very helpful and courteous. My favorite place to buy ammo.
Very good and nice guys that work there and got me the gun I was looking for very quickly
Every person working there is so full of life, educated, and very helpful. Loved shopping there.
Great gun shop big selection and priced right I’ve bought my last two ARs from them great service
These guys are pros. Got a very fair price on a trade and the courtesy and knowledge goes a long way. Never in 30 plus years have I seen a better shop.
The reason I started going to RHA was because Kevins charges $50 for a transfer, and Red Hills charges half of that just across the street. The staff were knowledgeable and easy to talk to. However, any time there would be a sale online and I purchased a gun to transfer with them, I felt I was always harassed to buy local. When Ive called to see if they can match the price, and they say no, I go ahead and order. When I buy online I dont have to pay tax, and RHA couldnt even match the sale price. Sorry, but Im as local as local gets.Once I bought a CZ, and I asked if they could acquire CZs. The owner said they werent a big enough retailer to get CZ. Fair enough. The next time I picked up a CZ Shadow 2, and the owner mumbled under his breath we probably coulda got you one of these. Yeah, but nowhere near the price.The final straw was recently, when I was alerted by the carrier service that the package was delivered. I took lunch break, and went to pick up the used gun I was buying from out of state. When I walked in there was four employees, one of which was doing absolutely nothing, offering to provide some assistance. When I asked about it, they said they hadnt scanned it in yet and they would call me back once it was ready for pickup. It takes about three minutes to scan a firearm into the system, and the last time I did that the employee helping me out was able to scan it in while I filled out my 4473. I dont think Ill be going back. I hate to give them their first negative review but Ive had multiple occasions where they were less than stellar.
RHA is my choice for a local gun and accessory store. They have matched or beaten plenty of other brick and morter store prices, and if they dont have it in stock they can get it rather quickly. I order plenty of stuff for personal gun builds and custom work, but as is typical, online retailers or auction sites dont always deliver exactly what you order. RHA has always been able to fill in the gap. Their staff are knowledgeable and not geared towards just selling you something. Running a store and maintaining proper records of FFL items will and should always come first for any firearm retailer. Remember all the shipping service has to do is push a button and you are instantly getting an email indicating your package has been delivered. What you may not realize is that a dozen other FFL items were delivered that same day. A simple courtesy call to confirm they are ready for your transfer can solve or even prevent a minor headache. Give them a shot theyre great!
You cant beat their customer service and willingness to fine what you need. Great experience working with these guys.
Very good customer service and fair prices.
If you want to support a local shop Red Hills is the place to go. Great people work here, who are knowledgeable and always provide great customer service.
Great professional staff.very friendly,very helpful and wont try to rob you blind on prices unlike some local stores.always been greeted with a smile and a first name greeting.great selection.best firearm store in tallahassee.
Love these guys!!! Nuff Said...
I walked into this store after living on Capital Circle NE for a long time, having no idea there was a gun store next to a frequent food joint i get my grabs Zaxbys lol. All the same, these guys took some old ammo and equipment i had for a good price and also educated me more about a gun im trying to get for concealed carry and home defense . Their price beats that of Kevins and they got friendly guys who dont look at me like a 6ft 8 threat even with a contagious smile on my face. I will get my stuff with them ASAP. Big ups Red Hills. You earned a customer.
Its always time well spent.
Small store with tremendous prices. I saved about $125 on my Taurus Tracker 627
They were nice and fast
The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Wow...BIG improvement....lots of room
Not so good place to shop, little selection and very high prices on what they do have.
Greta group of guys and very knowledgeable about guns
Great business and wonderful staff.
Best shop in town with the best staff.
Nice selection of guns, new and used.
Complete Gun Establishment.
They had a bargain bin for holsters😀
