Stopped into 2nd Amendment Armory for the first time this weekend and had a great experience, even though I didn't make a purchase this time, I am still looking at that Bodyguard 2.0 . I met the owner, Ranger, and the rest of the staff--and they were all super welcoming and easy to talk to. You can tell they know their stuff and genuinely care about their customers. Definitely a solid shop with a great vibe. I'll be back when I'm ready to buy. read more

We have purchased different items over the years, and have always had a great experience. The new ownership and layout is fantastic! They are always very helpful and do not try to sell you things you don't need, as well as, finding the best prices for items that may need to be ordered and shipped. I highly recommend this business! read more

I said no at first and was just browsing, yet they were eager to assist! Selection isn't so great here but I will say that they are very personable and helped me with a lot of new knowledge about what I was looking for! read more

As a first time gun buyer, I had a "list" of questions when I went in. Chris was great and very patient with me and we went thru the list answering all my questions and concerns without making me feel ignorant, or that I didn't belong there. Chris has a great sense of humor and made the experience very enjoyable. I wasn't intimidated and felt pretty confident when I left. He took me thru the process of picking out a gun and making sure it was the right fit- I didn't even know that was a thing. I told him I'd be back the next day and I did - with a new "list" of questions. We covered them and he assisted me with the classes I could take to make sure everyone is safe, how to become a responsible owner and good shot! He also got me the insurance information for me as well - truly a one stop shopping experience. I'd highly recommend this group ! Definitely stop in with your own "List" and they will hook you up! read more

I have several transactions with this business eaa they have always been great. Many people have to realize gun backgrounds checks are taking long time due to demand lately. These guys are great small gun shop. Their selection is usually pretty good. Right now they're dealing with the same thing all gun shops are dealing with low inventory, due to the demand. The workers in the storefront have a vast knowledge of firearms and will assist you in anyway they can. I would recommend this store to anyone, if you have questions just ask them. read more

Great place with great people. I went in looking for a new handgun and instead of pushing the pricier choices, they helped me find the right gun for me. I was able to hold the firearm and get a feel for it. I went in looking to buy a more expensive firearm and was sold a much better fitting gun that was more reasonably priced. They know their products well. I will definitely be back. read more

History

Established in 2003.

The original owners started 2nd Amendment Armory in 2003 on Adamo Dr. and, over the years, grew to the current location. In 2021 Mike decided it was time to retire and put it up for sale. Chris and Ted had served in Army Special Operations together for over 25 years and jumped at the opportunity to own their own business. Today we offer the same great selection of firearms, accessories, training, and customizing. If you can think of it, we can help you find it. Stop in and say hi, we'd love to meet you.
