And I'll just mention the issue with the gun i bought was not the shop's fault, it was out of their control. They have great prices on new and used guns.

Terrible customer service by the owner. Rather than honor the advertised price he has listed on…read moreArmslist, he chose to tell me how overwhelmed he's been with his business. He spent a good 10 minutes whining about how busy they've been and that he just wouldn't be able to honor the advertised price of $599 and instead needed to charge me $619. In other words, he'd rather ruin his reputation over $20. It's bad enough for an owner to not honor an advertised price but to whine to a customer about how overwhelmed and stressed out they are. This is definitely a new breed of owners I'm not familiar with. My suggestion would be to get out of the business if you can't handle i Update: I have filed a complaint with the FTC and also the BBB.

My wife and I have been upping weapons purchases and we found this place by chance. We will definitely be going here from now on.

You won't be disappointed with them or their selection!

He wanted to try this and it was a great time. I wish I could have been the dad that knew what he was doing but I did not. Dallas aided us greatly in the range area coming over several times and keeping an eye on us. His demeanor and attitude was light, fun but also keeping it serious as it is with live ammo. Holly also was a huge help picking out a gun she thought we would like and we did. I think it was an RK (whatever that is) storm trooper white pistol. Anyway, 5 stars! Very welcoming and took away all intimidation. Loved it! Ken

I hemmed and hawed for a bit before deciding to take a chance. It was 4 days between placing my order and having it in my possession.

While I cannot comment about their facility or personal interactions with staff, TMS met and exceeded my expectations and I will not hesitate to use them again!

I wish I could give a better score for this place but the bad outweighs the good. Let me say that…read morethere are some nice, helpful guys that work here but my experience today solidified the negative experiences I have had over the last month. First experience was I signed up for an intro to pistol class on June 23rd and was in the store when the trainer called to cancel stating that the range had flooded so the class was cancelled. I know things happen so I went ahead and rescheduled for two weeks in the future for Tuesday July 7th 2026. And the young man behind the counter that evening was so nice and helpful that I decided to reschedule. The trainer for that class was a jerk!! I am a marksman with the M16 and I used to carry a .36 for work about 30 years ago. I was nervous when we got on the range as it had been a while and IT'S A GUN. He was snotty and rude when I asked him for help. Then he proceeded to make fun of me and said "Weren't you listening in the class?!?" An absolute jerk. I was not happy to say the least but in my mind I thought I would avoid his classes in the future and never have to see him again. So I proceeded to sign up for the $30 a month membership fee so I could practice and obtain my license to carry at some point. Since that class on June 7th I have been there three times (today would have been the fourth.) I had experienced great customer service and helpful gentleman behind the rental counter. Last Saturday July 11th the men behind the counter were very nice and helpful and I learned alot from them. I go by myself and use the members lane simply because I don't know anyone that is interested in shooting and I started this hobby as a form of personal protection so it was amazing all the things I learned on this day in particular. I recently applied for my permit to purchase and was planning on buying a 9mm from this establishment. Now today Sunday July 19th 2026 in the morning shortly after opening, I went in to rent once again as I have been doing without issue. I stood at the rental counter and watched two young men messing with a rifle pointing it and talking and stood there waiting for someone to help me so I could rent a pistol. One young boy stood facing me and completely ignoring me. I waited and finally the short blonde boy at the register asked if I needed help which I replied, "Yes that is why I'm standing here." Come to find out that I need a permit to carry/ purchase, my own gun or someone with me. This makes total sense to me but up until this point nobody has asked for these things and I have rented without issue. The tall blonde boy says, "We don't want you to off yourself." Ummmmm...who tf says that?!?! I'm like omg wtf is happening?!?! I decided to cancel my membership as I realized that this place is not following their own rules and apparently they just rent to anyone with only an ID. How scary is that?!?! There are plenty of places to go in Minnesota so I'll take my money elsewhere. As a consumer I just want to give an honest review of what I've experienced here. I would recommend checking out other ranges before coming here. I will be cancelling and getting my money back for the permit to carry class as well and taking it elsewhere. There are plenty of places to go in Minnesota. I came to Yelp to leave this review because they blocked all/any 1 star reviews on Google.

Jim and his assistant, Andrew are friendly and very knowledgeable. I took an old, rusty .22 Ruger…read morepistol to Jim's for repair one day and it was repaired, cleaned, and test fired by the next day. The charge was $40, including parts. I was so impressed, I brought Jim my very old and very rusty 30-40 Krag rifle a few days later expecting him to tell me it was no longer worthy of repair. He totally cleaned all the rust off, fixed the frozen sights, lubricated the action, and test fired it. Again, all in 24 hours and for $70. He also provided me with a record of the gun's manufacture and history. I was very impressed with the professionalism of both Jim and Andrew and highly recommended their services based on both quality of their work and their reasonable prices.
