I looked around and didnt see another thread like this so my apologies if its been done...
I thought it would be cool if everyone talked a little about their favorite gun store. where Its located, do they have a gun range attached to the store, and generally what you like about the store. I think this would be a good way for people to find new stores in their area and perhaps give people a chance to see what different stores have to offer.

My favorite Gun store is Lost Creek Armory located in Bend, Oregon on the northside, right next to shopko and the military recruiting stations. They dont have the biggest store but they have dam near any gun you could think of in stock. They carry a wide variety of handguns (mag-fed and revolver) to Rifles including Bolt action, semi auto, AR-15's, etc,etc,etc. The 2 staff members are super knowledgeable about everything guns and have a pretty good sense of humor as well. the owner also does custom holsters. I'm pretty sure that he has patterns for almost any handgun you can think of. Great store and i would recommend them to anyone that lives in the area.

Adventure Sports, due to knowledge, selection, service, and one of the guys reminds me of my uncle (like a shorter twin, really...), but also their LOCATION and STOCK help a lot. They are very close to my place, and if they carry it, they have it in stock.

agreed with Adventure Sports. They have good customer service, and knowledge when coming to questions that I've had about reloading and other things of that nature. Prices aren't that bad (I've seen worse and better), but for location and service, I'll pay the extra at times for the great service. It beats going to Cabellas or Kesserling up in Burlington.

Kesserling is good for bulk ammo stuff and cheaper ammo, but the gun shows are now my favorite place for that stuff. :laugh:

Federal Way Discount Guns... good prices, good selection, knowledgeable staff but often very busy.

Ben's Loans/Pawn in Renton... almost as good prices on guns, cheaper on ammo, ok selection, knowledgeable staff but often very busy as well.

For handgun knowledge and prices? Mary's Pistols in Tacoma. They smoke everyone else (including Feddy Way Discount) on handgun prices.

For ammo, AR-15's, and generally good people? Surplus Ammo & Arms down in Lakewood. It's always fun making special trips to head down to their store. :)

I wish I would have found out about this place when looking for gun stores here in bend. I went to Portland this Saturday to buy my first gun, a glock 19. Now I have a place to go to locally. :D

Bull's Eye in Tacoma. It is quite large with all kinds of guns, safes, gear, etc... There is a range attached, and they have always been very friendly and knowledgable.

You must have lots of spare cash to waste. They're probably the most overpriced store in the entire Puget Sound area, not to mention their absolutely atrocious customer service. It's pathetic to walk into a store with 5 people working and not have anyone even say hello to you for fifteen minutes. :tard:

I didn't say what I actually bought there..
I've had them do a little gun smithing on my .45 because I trusted them to do it right..

I shoot there when it's convenient..

I've purchased ammo from them when it was convenient...

I've never purchased a gun or hardware from them.

I don't know about you guys, but Kesselrings absolutely sucks in my book as far as service goes, and I won't spend a penny more there because of it...

Really??? man ive liked the service there the only part i had a hard time with is the fact the pistol guys will talk your ear off

One young kid kinda gave me an attitude but talked to him 2 days ago and he admitted he was hard of hearing
