- DLDuane LawrenceOct 29, 20253.0I assumed a large store would have some better options for 16 guage Shotgun shells. Alas, only 1 option (Federal) 4 shot lead.
- NHNaasir HassanOct 27, 20253.0Visited in September 2024 to buy my first handgun. Customer service was friendly and helpful, but I felt pressured into buying extras I didn’t need (cleaning spray, extra spring, and an extended warranty). Good experience overall — just ask lots of questions and don’t let staff add things you don’t want.
- KKkryan10409Oct 25, 20255.0For everything outdoors this is the place to go. Hunting, fishing, camping, you name it. Great customer service as well with fair prices
- DPDavid PolisterOct 23, 20255.0A lot of everything for the outdoors. I don't think I've been in one before. The staff were friendly and willing to talk about anything you might be interested in. Large store.
- RMRyan MurraOct 13, 20255.0Stopped in today for ammo and to look at a firearm. I’d been looking at different stores all day. Mark helped me. All day I’d been dealing with people who either had very limited knowledge and experience OR were jerks. Not Mark. Mark had all the information one could ever ask for, he had personal experiences to relate. He took a consultative approach to selling and suggested what I needed. AND he is like the sweetest guy, I felt like I was chatting with my grandfather and he was teaching me about the different hunting rifles and their benefits. They don’t make “Marks” anymore and sadly he will likely retire soon, so go see him at the gun counter while you have a chance. He is an absolute gem and has actually changed my perception of the Sportsman’s Warehouse brand as a whole.
