Absolutely Outdoor

Most of these reviews floor me considering all of them are completely across the nation and have never stopped in before. If they had stopped in.. they’d know that our BIGGEST priority is customer service considering we aren’t a huge chain with wholesale prices to compete otherwise. We know our locals by first name, we have stools around all of our gun cases to listen to stories, and everyone is always treated as family. We also have a barber shop IN STORE, and a gunsmith shop in the back. We see kids all day long that we’ve watched grow up getting their haircut with their parents and walking around the store.. and THAT is what that sign was for. We take in old guns all of the time for repair, and some people that bring them in might forget to unload them or simply do not know how. We hear horror stories all of the time of other small gun shops with accidental fire because they simply forgot to unload when bringing in a repair. It is our responsibility as their family to protect them from any possible accident situation that we can control with just a simple sign to remind you to unload your gun before entering. Know your rights. We 100% support the 2nd amendment and we ALSO support safety. We also do not take kindly to threats or to cowards that delete half of the conversation to make themselves look cool on the internet. One thing I can promise you that we will always do our best to make you happy in any way that we can. Thanks so much for anyone that has ACTUALLY stopped in, we appreciate your business so very much! God bless

EDIT: Im reading any signage on the door has been addressed to allow legal gun owners to carry ... Im updating my review to three stars to reflect the change... The sign on the door will deter my business... the rude owner will ensure I never spend a dime here..

George is the man! My purchase was a very pleasurable experience. He was knowledgeable, polite, and a hoot to talk with. I saw right through the dismal 1 star ratings regarding some previous gun policy held there. I was in a packed bow shop once when a guy decided to draw a 70lb bow back and dry fired it. POW! Luckily the only thing that was hurt was the bow and his pride. Accidents happen. I'll bet the State Troopers don't get a bunch of crap when people are required to check their arms at gun shows. How would you like to be a store keeper that has to trust the safe gun handling habits of 100s that may walk through your store over the course of a month? "Elitists with inflated prices" Ha! The owner probably can't get the cheaper bulk purchase prices like bigger stores. These are the jealous accusations of people that don't have the talent, tenacity, and fortitude that it takes to be self employed. And yes, I am self employed and will support this local business with future purchases.

So, I drive by this shop sometimes on my way home from work. I have never stopped because I had been turned off by the numerous negative reviews, but for whatever reason I stopped by today. I'm glad I did. First of all, there is a sign on the door that clearly states that guns ARE allowed in the store. When I asked about the reviews I was told the original no guns policy was directed towards people who were perhaps carrying in antiques etc for the gunsmith and may need to be reminded to check their guns. The employees informed me this was never intended for legal carry weapons. They also informed me that concealed carry courses are even taught on the premises. The shop is very well organized and carries everything from tools to firearms. I was greeted by the two ladies working the counter when I walked in and was immediately asked if I needed any help with anything. I chose to browse, but when the employees saw me looking at the handgun rack behind the counter they immediately came to me offering assistance and allowed me to ask several questions and handle multiple firearms. I asked about a certain ammo and was informed they did not carry it, but was told it could and would be ordered and I left my number for pick up at a later date. Prices seem fair and the selection was surprisingly good given the location, which I thought would be sparse at best. I'm not sure how so many people rate this place poorly, but I will be a return patron in the future.

Staff here are just rude and unresponsive. Prices are high compared to other local stores. The store itself had a "musty" smell like they had water damage and didn't check/remove mold. A great place to avoid shopping at unless you like to pay too much and be ignored and/or treated rudely.
