Cherokee Firearms

I have been to Cherokee Firearms many times, I have only made a couple of purchases here simply because their prices are simply too high on most items although they do have a great selection of virtually everything. I love the service and the people and their shooting range is top notch. It's by far the best place in town and I am actually a member of the other place south of Springfield. The acoustics in this range are literally the best I have ever experienced. Someone can be popping off an AR-15 in the stall next to you and you are pretty much good with single level hearing protection. Down south, I always double up because it's just concrete walls, very little sound absorption. I cannot bring myself to being a range member here simply because their ammo and reloading components are literally 20% to 30% above everyone else. I know they have a business to run and it looks like they are doing quite well. Bottom line: If you are looking for a great place to shoot your firearms, then this is probably a good place for you. If you need to purchase a gun, they have a very nice selection but they are on the upper price side of the stores in Springfield. Great Store, Great People, just a little expensive for me.

Bad business. Bad experience every time I've ever visited. As with many other reviews the customer service is terrible and they talk to you like you're stupid. Their prices are too high and take advantage of your 'lack of knowledge'. I brought in an older shotgun the other day that was a family peice to try to find a firing pin. I walk to the counter with the pin, I took out myself, and the shotgun. I say I'm looking for a firing pin, the first thing they say is, "No. I don't have anything for that, are you sure there's not anything else wrong with it, I mean when was the last time it was used," just because it is an older shotgun. He said he would have to drill it out and come up with something and I was looking at 2-3 weeks and about $100. After much frustration I left. I go to Bass Pro and talk to the gunsmiths and they hook me up in 20 minutes and traded me for another firing pin I had straight across, a $10 part. The gunsmiths at Bass Pro are very good guys.

Great indoor range. Customer service is excellent. As I was about to leave, I strolled through their magazine aisle to look for a flat bottom plate for a S&W mag (I can only find them online and would much rather pick one up from a store). Seth approached me, asked me what I was looking for. After saying they didn’t carry any, he offered me one of his personal spare base plates free of charge, since he usually switches them out with an extended one anyway. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and will definitely be returning in the future.

Great advice and help. Very personable and attentive to my needs, not pushy at all. Very happy with my initial purchase and have been back multiple times.
