Had been going there for a very long time, but haven't stopped by in over a year.
Great selection of guns, good reloading supplies, wide variety of outdoor items.
Gun counter sometimes crowded, but they make manful efforts to pay attention to customers.
They have a "safe" target area at which you can point guns.
Archery shop.
They have some great outdoor art for sale.
Only objection is the last time I brought in a cased gun to match a holster for it, they had changed the check-in system from them just checking for loading, they'd put a tag on it, and that was that.
Last time around, they had me come behind the counter, locked the door behind me, and had me go through a whole rigamarole about dry-firing the gun in this little bullet-trap. They asked if I had any ammo for it, I said yes (in a magazine in my pocket) and they said I couldn't bring the ammo in with me, so I had to go out to the car to park the ammunition. Hobbling out to my car, I said pisonit and drove off.
I don't know if there was an "incident" that prompted this new rigamarole or what, but I thought it was like visiting an inmate in prison. They said it was "corporate policy."
I had already declared my carry gun, which was loaded, and that was OK if I wasn't going to withdraw it for any reason.
I don't know if they've changed that system or not since then. Oh, and one minor thing is you can't make a left turn toward I-25 out of the parking lot.
Otherwise, a great store.
