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.

My first (and last) order with Speedy Worm was pretty ridiculous...and definitely NOT speedy…read more I ordered 250 worms (and the bait puck) on Wednesday, May 30th (see photo). On Monday, June 4th they told me they were "back ordered" (see photo). It took them 5 days to bother to tell me that they were out of product??? HORRIBLE customer service, definitely asleep at the wheel over at Speedy Worm headquarters. When I contacted them the next day to tell them to cancel, they changed their mind and told me they found some worms and they could ship the following morning. So they shipped the poor little worms, and I finally got my product on Thursday -- a grand total of 8 days from beginning to end. Needless to say, I could have driven to my local Petco a couple hundred times in the amount of time it took this whole fiasco to play out. The ONLY good thing is the worms came alive...but it took 8 days. I could have walked to Alexandria and it would have been faster. I'm not mad that you were out of worms, Speedy Worm. I'm mad that it took you 5 days to tell me. -Daddy Maxx Retro

I started worm composting around the beginning of the year. My main goals - to have nutritious…read moreworm castings for my fruits/vegetables & to have fishing bait whenever I feel the urge to wet a line. This was my first time purchasing worms online & was unsure of what to expect - will the worms die during shipping?, will the worms be uber-small? etc. I ordered 250 European nightcrawlers during the weekend. Euro's are bigger (around twice the size) than the more common composting worm, the Red Wiggler, which makes them more ideal for bait. Red Wigglers do have the advantage of living longer & reproducing faster. I was notified the shipment was mailed Monday afternoon w/ tracking number and I received them today, Wednesday. I am well pleased. All the worms were lively & large. I recommend Speedy Worm for people interested in starting their own worm composting bin. It's very simple to start & requires little attention.

Can't express how lucky we are to have a Home Town Hockey Store!!…read moreRecently we had an issue with one of our children's Hockey Skates. We had originally purchased the skates at Cowing Robards a year ago. When we contacted Cowing and they went to work. Because of their customer service, and the relationship that they have with their suppliers we have been informed that the company is going to stand behind their product and fix the issue at hand. We are so impressed with the way this was handled in a timely fashion, and with the professionalism of the team at Cowing Robards. Thank you Cowing and Staff!

STAY AWAY FROM HERE…read more The reason I titled my review this is because this place is worthless. Out of the 3 managers that work there 2 of them are the best. Unfortunately the older gentlemen that is manager is just so lazy and always looks like he's depressed and mad at the world. I heard that he makes people uncomfortable, especially those that work with him. One of the gentleman that works there told me that the older gentlemen manager ran into bathroom and about 10 minutes later he ran to use the toilet and opened the stall door to use it and the older gentlemen manager was using bathroom and didn't lock door and it all made him uncomfortable need better management. Selections are ok but this place never has shoes in my size WILL NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE NOT EVEN A DEAD RAT
