I emailed Rich ( our teacher) prior to class I signed up for. He went ABOVE and BEYOND to make sure I felt comfortable. Even helping to arrange ways for me to at least become familiar with a weapon prior to class. I was very grateful. He made the class interesting and relevant to the needs of the class. I took the Conceal and Carry class The only reason I didnt give 5 stars, was because of the meeting location. Which for my class was in a bowling alley that was loud and distracting but you did have access to snacks. And Im not sure if its normal but we had to drive to a separate location for the shooting portion of the class. I would highly recommend this class!

I was mostly here because Cabela's / Bass Pro tolerate overnight parking for RVs in their lot. I didn't find the designated parking area for RVs. Inside, the store was packed. Lots of people shopping and I did check out the men's wear and the firearms. Pistols looked to be priced okay, ammo was medium and there were plenty of bargains for camping gear if you looked carefully. The store is clean, the bathroom was excellent, and it was a pleasant shop. [Review 2447 of 2024 - 3902 in North Carolina - 23459 overall]

Now Cabela's is telling us that despite the fact it was THEIR mistake, they will not refund or exchange ammo. So they can scam you out of your money and refuse to correct their mistakes. Apparently their staff at the gun counter don't actually know anything about what they're selling.

I stopped into Tar River Arms on a Saturday 9/26 morning while traveling for work from Florida. It…read morewas easy to find, and right away I liked the feel of the place. It's a smaller shop with a friendly, personal atmosphere, and nobody pressured me while I looked around. They had more on the walls than I expected, too: everything from affordable guns around $350 to some seriously nice high-end options. I'd visited a few shops around Raleigh, and this was the first one where I liked both the selection and the people enough to buy. Kurht was there, and you could tell he cared about the customers. While I was looking around, I watched someone buy his first gun. Kurht took the time with him, and it was cool to be there for that moment. We all remember our first one. Then I spotted a Geissele Super Duty in exactly the color and setup I wanted, so I ended up taking it home. I also bought a scope, which he mounted and zeroed at 200 yards for me. The whole experience of an out of state sale was fast, easy and enjoyable. I'd recommend Tar River Arms wholeheartedly. If I lived nearby, I'd be a regular. Even from Florida, I'd be happy to order through them and have a gun shipped to my local FFL. Thanks, Kurht, for a great experience.

I drove three hours to his shop, and it was absolutely worth the trip. He took the time to answer every question, explain the differences between models, and make sure I left with the right fit for me. The whole experience was professional, friendly, and confidence‑building. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him again.

I specifically let Dillon know I wanted the gun and asked to be called once everything was approved. I was told the process usually takes around 3 days. I work long hours in HVAC, especially this time of year, and I live about an hour away from the shop. Dillon called Sunday to let me know it cleared and that I could come pick it up, but I didn't receive the message until Monday night. When I called Tuesday morning, I was told the gun had already been sold and that I could be placed on a wait list instead. After driving out there, waiting on the background delay, and trying to coordinate around work, that was really disappointing to hear. I understand inventory moves quickly, but I feel like more time should have been given considering the circumstances and the communication we had beforehand. Unfortunately, the experience left me feeling like my time didn't matter, and I won't be returning.

My insides would totally freeze up, and I would seriously start sweating. I can't say enough about AC and how comfortable he made me feel. His experience and expertise are outstanding. He was patient and did not move forward until I was comfortable moving forward. Once I got a firearm in my hand, I was amazed at how comfortable I was once he had taken me through the process. We headed to the range, and I thought to myself there is absolutely no way I could have walked through that door if AC hadn't taught me in the manner that he did. We went over a few safety procedures and headed on in. It was an experience that I never would have thought I would experience. When AC says "I Got You" He's Got You 100%. I HIGHLY recommend AC at New Day arms training. He is the best! Give NuDay Arms Training a call. You won't regret it!
