Thrilled with my experience working with the guys at Elite. They were very professional while still making you feel like family. Elite is the only gun store I go to in SC! The variety of handguns/rifles by far surpasses any other gun store in the grand strand. They also have all the accessories you could ever want like holsters, vests and magazines. I’ve checked out all the other gun stores in the area and none of them treat veterans like Elite does. They also have a really good CWP class where the instructors really care about the student and the quality of the information we are supposed to retain. I have been and will continue to be a happy customer, thank you to the whole Elite team!

I grew up hunting and fishing. My cousin owned a gun shop in Garfield NJ named Meltzers. That location was opened by an uncle and stayed in business over 100 years through generations. Elite is the only other store i ever went to where they have that same family feel. With an extremely knowledgeable staff. They have the best prices around, with top quality. Child friendly they even have a video game. It is an amazing store and an amazing experience.

The guys at Elite Firearms are top notch professionals, polite, and helpful.They have a great selection of all kinds of firearms you may be looking for and at very competitive prices.Their Gunsmith (Troy) has worked on several of my firearms and did a great job every time..very quickly and affordably. I definitely trust Troy with maintaining and repairing all my firearms.I have been in their store several time and heard Ken advising customers what firearm would best serve their needs. Ken is extremely knowledgeable on all kinds of guns and rifles and I have never heard him give anything but honest and good advise.I highly recommend Elite Firearms to anyone looking to acquire a firearm or have one serviced. All of my experiences with Elite Firearms have been good ones...I fully expect yours will be too.

My husband and I can’t be happier with this store! Everyone we have met has been so informative with our questions, and has helped us with everything! We came in last eeek and purchased a firearm with all the bells and whistles, and then again yesterday purchased another one! I’m in love with this sorted.. And will be back soon for the other one my husband has his eyes on. Thank you all so much for your help

Great guys. Very knowledgeable and very patient. If you want to learn about firearms or want firearm training these are the guys! Their custom firearms are very nice too. Look forward to going back for my next one!

Very knowledgeable staff. I bought a duty belt with all the attachments. I wouldnt go anywhere else. Cant remember who helped me but he also set the belt and vest up for me.

Review №9

I don’t recommend this store, I have but a few firearms there... but he won’t sell a box of ammo to previous buyers. He will sell you a box if you buy another firearm, which most of us don’t need. He also said he didn’t get an ammo shipment for 3 months?What good is your local gun store when he wont sell you ammo for the firearms you bought there, and only gets a shipment (3 months ago).???

Great place to go if you want to get informed before you make a big purchase. I went to 2 other locations before coming here. The entire staff is helpful and accommodating. They will answer any and all questions you have. Thank you Paul & Elite for all your help!

Decent selection of firearms, but as with all firearms sellers now, there are no real bargains. Staff is uninterested and unwelcoming. Parking is abysmal. Look elsewhere.

Nice guys, helped me pick out my first gun. Got some help from Paul who taught me how to shoot. I appreciate the help guys thanks in again

Review №15

Maybe it was a bad day but the heavyset gentleman did not seem as if he was particularly happy to help me. I walked in simply looking for some 9 mm ammo. There were 2 gentlemen that walked in right behind me and it looked as if he was trying to help them or perhaps knew them. He looked past me towards those gentlemen and looked very annoyed that I was asking questions.When he replied about the ammo, he gave the answer in a very snarky manor saying you do understand that this is nationwide right?.Firstly, I already know of the shortage and was just checking their stock... Secondly, i like good customer service and was possibly looking for another piece or accessories for my current collection. I guess I didnt look like the normal clientel.Like I said, maybe it was a bad day, but I will not be returning. I felt very uncomfortable and caught the hint that possibly my money was not good there. Honestly, I wanted to give 0 stars but google reviews require at least one star.

While traveling I stopped in Elite to see what they had, and I was amazed by the customer service. Answered all my questions and definitely went above and beyond with advice on a build!

Review №22

Probably the last I deal with these guys. Custom service is the worst. They have one older man who doesnt even work there but is behind the counter working. He definitely needs to work on customer service skills and is rude.not happy with this outfit all. People send a lot of money on guys and in the time of a pandemic you would thank they would go out of the way to make you feel welcome. But thats not the case. Just one mans opinion

I love this place! I was a first time buyer and not very familiar with firearms. The staff there was awesome ! They took the time to answer all of my questions (I had a LOT of them!) and helped me find exactly what I was looking for.I can definitely say this will be the only place I go to for as long as I/they are in the area!

This is an amazing place. The owner and his employees are not only incredibly knowledgeable, but very passionate about their profession. You can feel their genuine desire to help inform customers as well as help them find exactly what they’re looking for.The shop itself has awesome prices with a lot of customizable options. They even are producing their own brand of firearm now.I highly recommend everyone to check this place out, it seems no matter what you’re shopping for, they’ve got you covered.I won’t be going anywhere else from now on.

One of the worst Customer service experiences! I do not recommend this business. Paid $200 down for them to hold a gun (pending background check). Now they claim to have no knowledge of the background check, no record of the deposit and they sold the gun!

Called to see if they had any BCGs in stock and the guy asked me what that was!!! After telling him what that was he said they didnt have any AR parts to sell because they were building there own right now. Whatever that says is up to you.

Great prices and friendly service. Knowledgeable and efficient on a custom build AR 15s. What I appreciated most was the effort of the team to build what I wanted with the custom paint job I loved.

Review №47

I made my first purchase at this store. The staff was very professional and knowledgeable. The owner wanted to make sure I was 100% comfortable with my firearm and let me checkout a variety instead of pushing popular brand sales. After my purchase, as I am a left handed shooter. They even converted my firearm to a leftie when my item arrived. I will definitely recommend this place of business to anyone who is considering purchasing a firearm.

Review №53

We’re from out of town on vacation, but we were going around different stores looking for magazines for a particular gun and also looking around. Unfortunately we left this one fairly quickly due to poor, actually lack of, customer service. We didn’t see what we were looking for initially, so we went to the front counter to ask if they carry any, but never got to ask as two employees were just talking to each other, looked up at us and continued talking, never asking us if we had any questions. Also some other items we were interested in turned out to be listed at prices $5-$10 more than other stores after doing some price comparisons, so that on top of the lack of customer service didn’t lead us to wanting to do business here.

Walked in close to closing hour just to gather some information about a rifle. I was so well served, the Owner and his Staff member took so good care of me without any time pressure, I had no other choice, than to walk out with my second firearm from this store ! Locally Owned and operated, highly recommended !!

I went in here a few days ago and it was around 6:45 when my and my wife walked in the door and the store closed at 7 so I told the guy I wanted to buy 2 glock 26s and we went threw all the paper work and decided witch ones we were getting and it took us a little while but he stayed way after it was time for them to close to help us and did not act like it was a big deal for him to stay late for us so I would recommend these guys to anybody and he even gave us some stickers and keychains and some pens to match our new guns

If youre even thinking about buying a gun or looking for accessories Elite Firearms is by far the best gun shop in Myrtle Beach. Ive been to just about every gun shop on the Strand and you will not find a friendlier or more knowledgeable staff.If youre a novice or a seasoned gun owner you will be treated with the same kindness and respect.What can I say about Yonnie that other reviewers havent already posted. He will make you feel welcome the moment you enter his store. I ordered a gun from Yonnie arrived on time in the box in perfect condition. Even though I was familiar with the firearm he explained and demonstrated all of the features and answered every question.Ive never dealt with Elite before and I never write reviews but I felt compelled to after my experience. Elite Firearms will be getting all of my future business.

Went in today to pick up my new ar15 lower that I ordered online. After filling out my 4473 the owner Yani tells me ok, thatll be $30 even. So I ask him $30? I was in here with my friend 2 days ago and asked the guy helping us if it was still $25 for transfers and he said yes it is. Yanis response was oh. Needless to say I still had to pay the $30. As much as $5 doesnt really matter, its just the principal that if your employees are telling people its this price, you should honor that and not try to take advantage of them instead. Ive had a few other unpleasant dealings with Yani in the past but at this point Id rather drive further and pay another company the amount Im quoted. Today was the last time I will step foot in Elite Firearms!

Review №84

I went in here on the Sept 21st to ask about a Ruger AR556 MPR. The staff here were super helpful. Even though they had the best price locally, they encouraged me to purchase it and send it to them if I was going to buy it online. I decided on the online route. Only because Ruger had a sale last month on the rifle and some shops who had bought them during the sale still had significant discounts on them. I picked up my rifle this afternoon and it was the best experience for a firearm transfer I’ve ever had. I would recommend them if you’re looking for a good deal locally or online transfer. These guys are helpful and willing to help or work with you.

If you like to be talked to like an idiot and deal with people that have a bad attitude this is perfect for you. Bought and returned an item and the individual wanted to call me a liar when I told him why I was returning it. Showed him a picture so he could see what I was talking about and just scoffed at it. Got my money back but wont be going back.

I had an absolutely amazing experience buying my first firearm here. Yonnie and the rest of the staff could not have been more helpful with getting my set up and answering the many many questions I had. All the firearms are very nicely priced and there are a wide variety of them available. I was recommended the FN 509 in 9mm and just got done at the range and I could not be happier. Its definitely one of the best shooting guns Ive had the pleasure of shooting. Again, thank you all at Elite Firearms, Ill be sure to recommend you every chance I get.edit: came back for a tactical light and a slight upgrade to the 509 tactical. Couldnt be happier

Hands down one of the best gun stores in the county. Good group of guys who know the industry, always willing to help you find a part or a particular item. Their selection is pretty good and growing by the week. When 3ver I need a part for a build this is my go to for comparable prices.Eventhough they are Yankees lol, these guys deserve a spot among the good ole boys and will make their name known in this county, with good customer service, current knowledge of firearms, and a great respect for military and LEO.They do offer a discount!Do your self a favor, leave Bass pro alone and come see these guys, you wont regret it.
