This small country store has more guns and ammo than some of the highly touted big city stores. New shipments come in all the time and they are willing to put you on a watch list for that certain gun you have been looking for. It is definitely worth the drive. You will not be disappointed. Again, great people and very knowledgeable. BTW.....nice offerings of fishing and other outdoor gear.

Prices are far to steep for me to ever buy anything here though. Worth coming to look around I guess.

The the store front looks small from Highway 12, don't be deceived, they've got plenty of room inside, and on many occasion have had everything I have needed. As it's right off of Highway 12, there's not a ton of parking right in front of the store, but there's plenty of parking to the east of the store. Joe's is a small town, family run place. There's no pay at the pump, but having to talk with the friendly staff isn't a problem, after all we need a bit more social interaction! The Sport Shop side of Joe's is evident in the front of the store with the fishing equipment and bait, but don't be fooled as there's plenty they have to offer for basic houseware and maintenance needs. My suggestion would be that if you need something, check with Joe's before heading out of town!

Our last encounter with Kyle was regarding a battery that gave out on us as we tried to head out to Fargo. I jumped my car and got it running and was going to get it taken care of in Fargo. I called Kyle to get necessary information about my battery he said, "Why don't you drive over here first rather than getting it taken care of in Fargo, you might save having trouble on the way?" How often do you encounter folks that put the customer first as Kyle did. Of course when got to the Alexandria store Kyle was waiting and we were on our way soon thereafter. I think it is important for society to put a voice to outstanding service as provided by Kyle. Jim Walters, EdD
