    A panoramic would have been better for this pic, too. Too many people were looking at them to do that, though.

    Wow! I read reviews about great customer service at Sentry Firearms but their customer service still blew away my expectations. It was that good. They also have such a large selection of guns that anyone could stay there a good part of a day looking at all of them. If I remember correctly they will also beat any gun price of the same model. From what I looked at the value and prices are great. We decided to get my wife her first gun. This is something we wanted to do for many years but for a few reasons never did. She went to a range & shot a few weeks ago. After that she felt she was ready to pull the trigger on a purchase (sorry but I couldn't help it). Since the kids are now older and 2 of them are away at college the time was right to get her her own gun. The first associate that helped us really listened to what we were looking for and showed us a gun that my wife really liked. She said the grip and size were great along with the perfect weight. At that time Alex (I believe his last name is Henderson) was finishing up with another sale. The original associate that was helping us asked Alex to help us with more detailed information. They DO NOT work on commission. Alex could not have been better. He showed us the different bullet sizes used by different guns. He also went over clearing the chamber, how to load a gun, how to release the saftey and which gun has less recoil. Alex also showed, explained and compared the details of many firearms. We were fully educated. Alex went above and beyond answering every question and made sure that my wife had everything she needed with this purchase. This included range bullets, home protection bullets, a concealed carry belt, signed both of us up for the concealed carry class and of course we bought his & her t-shirts. We ended up with my wife getting the first gun she was shown by the original associate who really listened to what she wanted. He was great too and with a little more experiance will really help a lot of people if he stays with it. Overall, my wife and I both received a ton of information and she got to compare many guns to see which one was the best fit. My wife and I couldn't be more confident that we picked the right gun for her. At no time did we feel rushed and Alex was going to take a much time as needed to make sure we were satisfied customers. My wife had almost no knowledge of firearms when we went to Sentry Firearms to make the purchase. She was so happy with the purchase she even thanked Alex for not making her feel stupid for not knowing anything about guns. Alex could not have been more professional and helpful in purchasing a first gun. If you want to buy your first gun but you are nervous because you have limited knowledge about them go to Sentry Firearms and ask for Alex. Also, as my wife was filling out her background check information to make the purchase I was talking to others buying guns. They were as happy about their purchase and obviously part of that was the customer service they received from the associate assisting them. So if it's your first gun or another one for your own personal collection from what I've seen and experianced Sentry Firearms will make you very happy. Their customer service is really way above expectations. Thank you again Alex!

    Want huge inventory? Want personal service? Want top named brands ? Brands like Ruger, HK, Barrett, Benchmade, Kershaw, and the list could go one. If you are a "judge a book by its cover" type of person, you may think that it is a run down shop because the outside is not very attractive. Quite the opposite, inside you have knowledgeable sales people, wonderful displays and service was FANTASTIC. My son loves knives and they had a rare one he was looking for, and guess what? No really what? They price matched from a website he normally buys from. Not sure they do this on everything, but it would not hurt to ask. So what can you look for? Benchmade - upscale knives with lifetime warranties. Spiderco - my son bought a Spiderco knife and he was thrilled. Kershaw - Kershaw is famous for the Leek, but I have four or five other Kershaw that I LOVE. Their action is clean and quick. Barrett - they had two .50 calibers on display. HK - my favorite pistol line. They had vP9, VP9 Match, Mark 23 plus more. They have a lot more stuff I have not gotten to see yet, but it really is worth a trip

    See all

    We came to Academy to look for some sneakers for my husband and to get out of the house. I haven't…read morebeen to Academy in awhile, so was looking forward to looking around. When you walked inside the store, in the lobby they had gloves, hand sanitizer, and disinfect available for customers to use. The store is pretty large, lots of items, everything from workout equipment like machines, weights, boxing equipment. They also have a ton of sporting equipment like bats, balls, gloves, etc. While we were walking around our little had his eye on a bike, so we headed over to the bikes to check them out. He was able to test out a bunch of bikes, which was nice (wide open aisles). We headed over to the shoes. I have to say, their shoe prices seemed pretty high, but that could be because I purchase most of my athletic shoes from outlets. We also checked out their grills (large selection). We didn't wind up buying anything, but did a ton of browsing. Pros: -Large store -Taking COVID precautions -Variety of items Cons: -Shoe prices seemed high Tips: If you're not in a rush, take some time to browse.

Came here to get my reel spooled since they're kind enough to do it for free IF they aren't busy with other customers whereas lots of their competitors (like Strike Zone spoil your rod up for freaking 12 cents/yard. Multiply that by your reels capacity. West Marine does a great job of it too. I've been in here a bunch of times and the staff is always very helpful and knowledgeable. But this time, I had Quinn help me out with spooling my rod. He's not like the other helpful employees.. He's above and beyond that. Very personable, helpful, fun to chat and swap fish "battle" stories with. Only dealt with him for about 5 minutes but he's an awesome dude and is a great addition to the fishing community. My reel looks fantastic btw! Quinn if you see this- thanks again man! TL;DR - these guys at West Marine skillfully spool up your line and rod for FREE if they aren't busy with other customers.. unlike their competitors, some of which charge 12 cents per yard- multiply that by a few hundred yards or whatever your rods capacity is.. they are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable as well. Ps- ask for Quinn to help you out with your fishing needs. He's a chill and knowledgeable guy.

I admittedly haven't needed anything for myself in years, however my kids have a boat and I popped into this store for Christmas gifts and a gift card. Naturally I had to walk around to see if anything caught my eye! You can't go into a store and not browse. The store is clean and has great displays featuring the latest and greatest for all of your watersports needs. I ran back to the boating section to pick up some outlets for the kids boat and grabbed a gift card so they could shop on their own. Checkout was a breeze and the young man efficient and friendly. Now that I will be using my kayaks again- I will be in for accessories!
