My parents are offering to order me a .45acp Springfield XD for my b-day in January, and we're thinking of giving Sporting Arms in Lewisville a try. Any of you bought from them before? Are they a good outfit?

Use them with confidence.  In the time they've been in business, I have not heard one single bad thing about them.  I recently used them for a transfer and will use them from now on for any further transfers I may need.  I really like the fact that you can set up your transfer with them online.  I especially like the fact that a transfer through them is only $15.  

It's a mom & pop operation, btw.  They work out of their home in a residential neighborhood.

 I will be picking up my SEBR from them, as will a few others.  They come highly recommended by many here on arfcom so I'll have more first hand details in about a week....Hopefully!  Bruce

I have purchased several firearms from them and also used them to transfer firearms. Tom and Becky are top notch folks. You can deal with them in confidence.

GREAT people to buy from, I have 2 or 3 guns from them,  best price and great service, especially since there so close to the Dallas area its a win win situation

I bought my Remmy 700 from them - they had the best deal and NICE people.  Small operation, but excellent service.

+1 on Sporting Arms.  Transfers are quite reasonable.

Great people to work with.  I have used them to both send products as well as receive my AR.

Both Tom & Becky have treated me very well on purchases and transfers.  Although they don't know it, I have probably referred about 10K worth of business their way.  All the guys at work now buy from them.

Just curious, but if we're doing an out-of-state transfer to Tom and Becky, will they have to charge Sales Tax, or is it just a flat $15?

Flat $15.

I realize this is rather late, but I just wanted to tell you that Tom and Becky are wonderful people to do business with, and you'll get a very competitive price too.

OK, all the above posts have me interested.  I used to work in the Lewisville area and only knew Nix's for firearms and one other place, but I only remember where, not who.

Need to know store address/phone number.
Thanks

Looks like Nix in the recent past turned into DFW Shooters World who apparently is/has shut down.

The other store was right on Main Street... I believe they closed down last year or the year before.

Sporting Arms does not have a store front.  They run the business out of their home on the west side of town.
