5280 has become a very popular go to spot for me for there wide selection of firearms. It is a very equipped store with plenty of accessories.Knowledgeable staff that help make picking out a rifle or anything you need! read more

Definitely the best gun store and gun range I've ever been to. They have a wide variety of firearms, ammunition and accessories to chose from. The staff is friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this business. I believe in supporting small businesses over Corporations. read more

Came in to buy some range ammunition. Guy at the retail counter seemed very tired and annoyed I was there. I believe his name was Jake. Jake asked ME if I'd prefer 115gr or 124gr ammunition. I said 124 and he actually replied "wow you're picky aren't you". This is ammo for my every day carry firearm that I spent $2000 on. Yes, I'm picky. I know what runs well. Next I asked about their 22lr ammo. he brought over a big box of 333 Winchester rounds. I asked him "this don't run well for me, do you have CCI mini-mags?" And instead of a yes/no, he decided to tell me "I've never had that issue. my gun runs any 22 ammo I put in it". I DONT CARE WHAT YOUR GUN DOES. ANSWER MY QUESTION. I left the store livid, with 2 boxes of cheap ammo that was way upcharged. I would rate 0 stars if possible. Absolutely abysmal experience. read more

Just want to provide an update about the last time I was here they were really busy, but they acknowledged me and came to help me within about five minutes or so. I found something that worked for me, they boxes it up double checked that I did miss any questions on my paperwork and after waiting my three day waiting period I was on my way. They have always had some of the most product out of any home owned mom and pop shop so I have never lacked for selection and variety. Also they prices are very competitive and you even get a little break if you pay with cash. Ian Bailey has usually been my go to guy giving me the God's honest truth about pros and cons to make sure I know exactly what I am getting. Bonus I was able to get some range time on the house as a bonus with my purchase. They are also having a special event in Rembrandt of Pearl Harbor day this weekend read more

See all

Horrible service they were all extremely rude they never called me about my approval or denial that old lady with the glasses needs to stay away from the phones because she never called me back till I had to pull up so they didn't even want to give me the gun anymore and just canceled and refunded half of what I paid dont do it this place SUCKS!!! read more

Jordan is extremely rude and belligerent to the Customers telling them they cannot leave unless they talk to her because someone mentions writing a bad review on the service further telling them the are not getting a refund unless again you talk to her. WTF SERIOUSLY who is SHE to tell a Customer wanting to leave they can't because she wants to talk to them while refusing to refund a ticket. Seriously needs better Customer Management and Owner as Gina came agreeing with Jordan. So let me wrap my head around this Customer doesn't like the service and respectfully asks to finish the transaction so the Customer can leave stating going to write a bad review. It is OK for Jordan and Gina to not only refuse to give the Customer back their money but also tell them the can't leave holding them hostage read more

If you are of a darker skin this place is not for you! I'm a military veteran and I know there's a few places with crummy attitudes but this one takes the cake! The not so nice white guy at front treated me like a third class citizen and i wasn't done looking around. Rushed and confrontational! Not going back here EVER! Racist pieces of shit read more

Great place! Friendly, knowledgeable people. Modern, well kept range and a great weapons shop to boot.

Great service in the shop and on the gun range. They keep and a large selection in house and will try to find if they don't.

I've done business there for over ten years, purchased pistols, long-guns, accessories and suppressors. Professional and courteous staff that doesn't make you feel like they're doing you a favor for letting you shop there. read more

here is the best firearm, firing range, and service minded shop in the Denver metro hands down. owners and staff are super knowledgeable and friendliest people you'll find in the business. read more

Just to start off the service is amazing. Second they have really good hardware. Check out the online weekly deals and once you've gone to the store they usually have it cheaper. They have a very good gun smith that works there and can put you in the right direction. You get what you pay for and in the world of guns you can't put a price on cool!!! read more

I cannot say enough good things about this armory. This was my first time buying a small pistol, and Noah, was so knowledgeable and friendly helped me pick out just the right one. He also suggested a lot of other ones just to give me something to compare it to. Sometimes as a woman, I can feel looked down upon or demeaned going into a gun shop, but I cannot say enough great things about this place. Even the gentleman who helped me do my background check, Ian, was awesome; very helpful and friendly. It really feels like you are truly welcome at this place and they want you to be there. Keep up the great work guys. This will be my go to for my next firearm! Thanks! read more

Long time hunter/shooter - First time indoor shoot, I was a bit nervous but the gentleman and the door made it a welcoming safe environment. I would go on the week days versus the weekend as the business cannot control what type of people come in, so less people on weekdays is really nice. read more

I wish I could give these folks 10 stars! These guys are awesome!!! I went there and was blown away by how big the show room is. Tons and tons of firearms of every kind. Really neat fascinating historic stuff. I could spend hours here.Also a really cool range that has 10 lanes for pistol and 50yrd. Also full auto rentals?!?!? Sign me the heck up! Also special mentions for exceptional customer service!!! -dude with pony tail. (Sorry I didn't get your name) Had some technical questions and this guy answers them like a pro and got me what I needed at an exceptional price! Give this dude a raise! Sold me my red dot I sighted in that day. -Liam(sorry if butchered the spelling) the range officer. I am an avid hunter and have been my entire life. I know a thing or two about shotguns but not tactical firearms.. Liam "schooled me" with my own equipment. I bought a new red dot and he helped me sight it in less than three shoots! I spent like a 100 rounds trying to sight it in super patient, super knowledgeable. And I had some duuuumb questions about how to operate the targets. Give this dude a raise! The older lady and younger lady at the range counter. They were very friendly and nice.. the younger lady had to repeat herself a few times cause I'm older and hard of hearing at my age and have a tendency to get people frustrated with it. Not her.my wife would feel really comfortable in the atmosphere and I can't wait to take her shooting here! I have always not taken my wife shooting cause it was a bunch of dudes at the range that make her uncomfortable. Reminds me of the episode of The Big Bang theory when Penny goes into the comic book store and it's just all dudes . Definitely female friendly as I saw as many female shooters and workers as I did male. Never seen that at any gun store or range.. female friendly gun store and range! Sure is! Overall this is an 20star establishment with a+ customer service, awesome selection, and even better pricing than any local competitors. I had been pricing PMC 233 ammo all around town for bulk target ammo and they came in 30$ less for a 1000 rounds! Check these guys/gals out for your next range experience or purchase! These people who leave bad reviews are obviously local competitors or must of acted like d bags cause I saw only good people, great service and great pricing. read more

The staff at this establishment are in need of a course on customer service. When asking about the inventory, and pricing, a staff member treated me as if I was incompetent and that my mere questions were burdensome. I have never had an experience like it before and I can say with full confidence that the customer service here is atrocious! read more

I Can see why this place has 3 stars on Yelp. The first guy that helped me was decently helpful but right when I was going to tell him I would take the Daniel Defense AR he just walked away. Very interesting sales tactic. I then proceeded to ask another employee about some of the items and he also just kept walking away from me. Im an avid gun collector and was ready to throw down a couple Gs on some items they had. Not sure if it's the way I look, or the fact I'm not some weird old NRA loving gun owner, but they way they talked to me was just downright demeaning. Just not a good vibe from any of the employees, and i don't say that often. It was almost as if they just wanted to take my money and for me to screw off. I just felt like they didn't want me there anymore and frankly this was the second time this has happened. I went in here one time before about a year ago and thought maybe I'll give them another try. Nothing changed. I took my business to Rocky Mountain Pawn in brighton. I picked up a desert eagle, an FN 545 (which I was looking at @ 5280 armory) and some parts and optics totaling about $4500 on Sunday. I don't think I will ever set foot in 5280 armory ever again. They lost me as a customer and it seems like I'm not the first to have this issue. read more

2 stars because they were the only place that had what I was looking for and one person was nice. But everyone else was really terrible customer service. Not friendly at all. Not what I'm looking for in a gun store. read more

Great place, good people, I would recommend this as a local range, very reasonable cost

I was treated like I couldn't afford anything. This old guy looked at me and when I asked how much for a Springfield Saint AR-15 pistol, he looked at me like I couldn't afford it. Told me it was $1000 then he walked off like he had something better to do than let me take a look at the AR-15 pistol. Been buying a lot of firearms in the past and never got treated like this before. In his defense I was wearing Adidas hoodie and sweetpants so I guess he thought I was a thug. His loss I went to another local firearm store and bought one from them who didn't judge me for the way I looked, even looking like thug in sweetpants and hoodie. Will not go back there again. read more

Just Here to reaffirm what others have said. Good guns. HORRIBLE customer service. We have made a lot of purchases here. But as today we are done. The owner was really rude to my husband. We are all about supporting local businesses but we don't support being treated in a rude manor. Enough is enough. We will go somewhere else from now on. Hope y'all figure it out ! read more

Expert service, advice, and guidance. Exactly what you'd want and expect from a responsible dealer. They answered my questions, demonstrated features (such as the ease of disassembly for regular cleaning and maintenance), and set reasonable waiting expectations. I can't wait to experience their range and classes. Customer for Life. Thank you, 5280 Armory!!! read more

Went in to buy my first AR15, was treated with absolute disrespect. Guy behind the counter just kept asking me "so you gonna buy this one?" and wouldn't answer any of my questions in anything longer than 3 words with a ton of contempt. One example: I asked if a rail could hold zero because I like to use a green laser with my rifle; guy behind the counter scowled at me and responded, "I don't know. You gonna buy this one then?" Wouldn't recommend for a new gun purchaser or really anyone else unless they and only they have what you are looking for. Large selection but it doesn't really matter when you're treated with disdain by the staff. Bought my Daniel Defense at a different store with much friendlier staff. Gun selection: 7/10 (had a lot but not what I wanted) Customer service: -5/10 (never felt this unwelcome in a gun store before) If I could give a 0/5 stars I would. EDIT: Don't know why it says I'm in CA; I live in the area of Denver, CO. read more

Went in originally just to look. Ended up purchasing two firearms. At first I wasn't too impressed with the customer service but "SPIDER" helped me so so much! He went above and beyond explaining specs and making sure I was satisfied with my purchase! I will definitely be going back and telling people about this spot! read more

I was in the market for a new AK-47 rifle. My wife and I decided to checkout 5280 Armory. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted right away. There was a wait list so I put my name down on their wait list sheet. After 10 min, my name was called. The sales person that helped me was very friendly and professional. He showed me all the rifles that I was interested in. He answered all my questions and he was very patient with me cuz I couldn't decide which rifles I wanted to buy. He gave me some great suggestions. I ended up purchasing two rifles from them. While waiting for the CBI to come back, we were just walking around the store checking out all the other firearms and accessories. All the sales person working that day came up to us and asked if we need any help. Great customer service! I would definitely recommend this place. They have a huge selections of firearms. read more

5280 Armory - 5280 Armory store - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

Great quick airy firearms and deals on ammo. It does seem this is family owned so even better. I always support local as much as I can. This gives us a better understanding. Store up front an range in the back so it's great to have both. read more

Awesome location! Went shooting here with my grandpa, father in law, and husband. The staff is friendly, ensures everyone is safe, and the armory is kick a**!! The range is indoor and on one side, armory on the other. They have a huuuuge selection of guns! The only thing is they get kind of stingy with the tape so ask for extra before you go in the range otherwise you'll be back and forth! read more

Probably the most rude female Inhabe ever dealt with. Not nice, and doesn't care, you can find many other places around here that care about business and want to work with people. Never will I set foot in here again. Rices aren't great either. read more

I walked in here a few times, and was never pressured. There was an older gentleman, with a unique name, who is cooler just stand around and chitchat with. I eventually bought a rifle. I've been eyeing for quite some time, and was very happy with how quickly the processing went. read more

So what did we learn first time in this establishment? Great selection, horrible customer service. Went in with a wallet full of cash to buy a AR platform of some sort. Got some young guy, skinny, tall, blonde. Not sure if this boys elevator goes to the top floor. Asked about some of the rifles on display. Condensending replies to my questions. Zero gun knowledge. "Yeah dude, all AR's are the same bro". Thanks 5280. I'll take my money elsewhere. I will never bother you folks again with any questions....I promise. read more

I have been avoiding this place because of the poor reviews. I've been going over to Westminster Arms. The customer service is stellar, but they mark everything up A LOT and I was tired of paying such high prices, so I relented and went over to check out this place. It seems most of the negative reviews are because this place is busy. Even in the middle of the afternoon on a Thursday, it had probably 10 people there. So, knowing that... I went in and made it very clear that I was interested in purchasing. The owner himself spent probably 10 minutes with me running through options, giving me his personal opinion. He never once acted agitated that I was asking so many questions. He passed me off to one of his employees to complete the purchase. Background check took a little while, but again... it was because there were other people in front of me. All-in-all, the customer service was great. Both the owner and his wife were genuinely honest and nice people. The best part? The prices. These guys charge you pretty much the same you can find online. I'll continue going here for all my firearm needs. I'll update the review if needed, but it was a great first experience for me. read more

The folks here Chris and Gabe took excellent care of me and helped me choose my equipment and gave me pointers to shoot better. I will definitely come back here again. Very reasonably priced and an expansive selection to play with. Thank you. read more

5280 Armory - Guns & Ammo Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

Its unlikely that you'll get to shoot here on a weekend. Especially if you have a rifle. I've tried calling and even showing up before range opens. Staff seems friendly enough. Its apparent they are doing something right to draw the crowds. But unless you're a member, it is unlikely you'll get a chance to actually shoot there. If you're someone who just needs occasional range time, I recommend going elsewhere. read more

I have been shopping at 5280 since 2008. I have had nothing but good experiences. I bought my first gun from Gina when I left the military. I have purchased most of my guns from them and have always had great experiences. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Prices are fair and lower than some competitors. Wide selection and the best range I know of any local shops. These folks care and are passionate about their craft. read more

Great service . Fair pricing and Friendly people. You won't find a better indoor range or store on the front range.

My wife and I have been going to 5280 Armory for the range and to purchase new items. My wife likes 5280 because they know how to appeal to the female customer. The shop is owned by a husband/wife and they take the time to provide gender specific recommendations. Some firearms and accessories are specific to men/women and they understand that. They made my wife feel comfortable and welcomed. I have purchased a couple of items and found their prices to be fair and their selection is by far the best I've ever seen. I had an experience yesterday that gives me a new reason to be a raving fan. I had a product that I purchased elsewhere that has consistent issues. Bryan and Paul took the time to come out to the range and recommend several solutions to my problem. They helped me repair a product that no one has been able to help me with (including the manufacturer) for the past few years. There are few ranges/stores that provide the service and have a staff as great as 5280. Also - I would encourage anyone reading these reviews... take a good look at the negative ones and decide if those are probably reviews from people that are never happy or a legit bad experience. Pretty hard to have a bad experience at 5280. read more

We were a group of 3 including 2 who had never shot a gun before. These guys were great at explaining what to do and making everything safe. We shot 2 different rental long guns and a silenced pistol. Would definitely return read more

If you are seeking professional advice and great customer service I don't recomend 5280. I have shopped and purchased alot from this place and had bad expierence all times. I had bought a gun that was supposed to be brand new and when i brought home to swap out parts I noticed it was filthy inside and was no way it was brand new. My last visits i had bought tools for my gun that the guysaid would work with my brand. Which was not the case and tried to return the very next day and was denied. Good deals but horrible service read more

No refunds no exchange for an unused still in box holster. Save. Money and shop on Amazon.

First off I went in and no one was wearing masks, agree with it or not it's a statewide mandate and their signs stated no one was allowed in without a mask. Apparently except employees. I counted 4 employees and only one customer other than me. It still took 15 minutes before one of the other employees finally decided to help me. Bear in mind the first thing I did was walk in and ask for help with some ammo and sign their sheet. Listening to them talk makes me think they were hired because they were family, which explains their disregard for helping a customer if they aren't worried about doing a good job. Why bother assisting someone when you are hired because you're family and not worried about getting in trouble right? read more
