I've bought quite a few things, including firearms, from GT but always in person at the Dallas store.

First class all the way.

GT is one of my "go to" places. Hit the Austin store 4 or 5 times a year (it is just over an hour away a nd the wife likes to have lunch in Austin when we go) and I hit the Garland/Dallas store about once per year. Also will do 3 or 4 on-line order per year. Until this past year, one of the things I looked forward to most was their October "Glocktoberfest." Always had great sales and plenty of range and carry ammo. However, No joy in October 2020. Maybe better in 2021.

Nice thing is if you buy night sights from them, they install for free.

Bought several Blue Labels from them. They are very knowledgeable and helpful. They do have a hard times keeping their stock in or did. They do a lot of business.

I have purchased several blue label pistols from them, including the Springfield XD I carry daily and some Glocks. I have also bought a few used guns from them in Austin.

And last time I was up there, they had Ruger blue label also. Both Springfield and Ruger offers discounts on their long guns too.

I buy ammo and gear at GT. Right now, in Austin, they have a 100 round per caliber per month limit. They don't always have want I want on the shelves, so I may have to go by several times to get my monthly allotment. It's worth it, because I get Blazer Brass 115 grain 9mm for $14 per 50 rounds. Always in person as they don't put their full inventory online.

Majority of our security team at church has bought from them. Sometimes slow because of how busy they are, but excellent company. The drive to Garland is worth it for us.

Yes, I've bought a couple Glocks on the blue label program from them (the one in Austin), was happy. The only reason I haven't bought more is that they are too far away to be an easy trip. But would happily by from them again.
