Today was my second transfer here and I couldn't be more impressed with the speed and professionalism of the process. They also have an outstanding selection of new/used items to browse. Will definitely use them again in the future.
Thes= Salem location worked with my dad in selling his firearms on consignment, they did a great job in making quick sales at the prices my dad wanted and providing documentation for the Estate. In the end they assisted me in purchasing the remainder of his estate and working with me on final accounting. I could not imagine working with a better crew in such a devastating time in my life. Thanks to their hard work and detailed paperwork my father's estate was settled with the remainder of the family without any issues.
All of the guys who work here have been super helpful and awesome to talk to. They are always willing to spend as much time as they need to helping narrow down choices, teach, and source parts or firearms. They're even willing to refer people to other shops if they have the item in question. Love talking to the guys there and always look forward to going in!
Stopped by randomly when passing through on a coastal trip. Well stocked on much of what you might want including some holosun red dots, lasers, quite a bit of ammo, and even some reloading components.
Guns:
They had lots of AR rifles/pistols and quite a few stripped lower receivers.
They had an above average lever gun and revolver selection.
Wished that they had more used handguns.
Reloading:
If you need brass check here. They had tons of clean range brass; especially 9mm, 5.56, 38 special and 45 ACP.
They had bricks of CCI primers on the shelf. Pretty much all small primers, mostly CCI 400 and 500 with some 550's as well. They did have some CCI Large Pistol about to be put out as well. VERY limited bullet selection and no powder.
Best place for gun transfers in the PNW! Friendly and knowledgeable staff. They buy and sell used guns for very fair prices.
I do all of my transfers at ACAP. This is the best place to do gun transfers FTF. They are extremely helpful and get transfers going fast and charge a very reasonable amount of money for transfers.
They also purchase your used guns for a fair price so this is the best shop to look for milsurp and other used firearms.
I love coming to Pantel for any of my firearm needs. They are easy to work with. When I came there for my first firearm purchase, they guided me through the process without any headaches.
The staff is also very friendly. They aren't afraid to spark up a friendly conversation. While I was waiting for paper work to be processed, one of the staff members let me inspect his lever-action rifle build. It inspired me to build my own lever rifle a few months later.
