Had a great experience at Four Seasons when I picked up my Hk. It was pretty busy in there but the guy was very friendly and helpful and took his time explaining everything. I will definitely go back again.

It is amazing how Carl remembers everyone. I email him with "can you find me this" or "that" every few months as I am rarely in Eastern MA and every time he dutifully finds me a price and availability estimate even though I only buy half of what I send him looking for. Yet, every time I show up in person, he always knows who I am...amazing.

My wife noted the excellent customer service, the unhurried explanations, and the...
Thanks again.
It's about time Carl comes up with some expansion plans. He loses business to other shops due to the crowds. And there are some very good "other shops". You listening Carl? We've been hinting for years.

But please don't take this the wrong way - 30 min to purchase a gun in FS, or any shop is really a long shot. It would have to go perfectly and get helped right away. In my experience at least.
Sorry you left empty handed. that's no fun at all!

I hear ya - 30 minutes was optimistic. Lord knows I wish FS well; running a gun store in this state must be tough. I'll get my gun at some point so I'm not upset. If I went there and spent 2 hours waiting in line behind fellow gun purchasers that'd be one thing. However, I firmly believe the guy with cash in hand and model in mind should get precedence over the guy with no intention of buying anything who just wants to chat about guns for 45 minutes during a busy Friday lunchtime then go home and "think about it" for a while.
Doing what he does is what "makes customers" rather than "make sales" which most businesses do! He (and staff) can't be clairvoyant and know what the person is there for until they provide service for the customer and then you can't say, "sorry, you'll have to wait another xx minutes while I wait on the guy that walked in with the cash in his hand"!
I've bought a lot of guns/ammo/supplies at FS over the years and I wanted to pickup a certain gun and had to be somewhere at a certain time, so I called Carl in advance to make sure they had the gun I wanted and explained my time constraint. I was in and out of the shop within 20 minutes with gun in hand! The shop was busy and I'll admit that it was before the deli-counter number system was installed, but it can be done and he'll do anything he can for a customer who gives him a heads up about the situation in advance! That's why people continue to shop there.
Also those people you claim are clueless and just there to chat, will most likely come back over and over again and spend a ton of money there once they figure out what they want. Customers are built over time. We all go to WM to "just buy" and know that there is no customer service so you damn well better know what you want. That's not the model of a successful small retail business, which Carl runs!
