I first visited The Armories while I was looking to purchase my first firearm. I wasn't exposed to firearms growing up, so my firearm knowledge was mostly limited to stuff I picked up from video games over the years. That being the case, I'm sure that it was very apparent that I wasn't experienced with what I was doing. But, I did know that I wanted a small, inexpensive firearm to start out with. I really just wanted to get comfortable handling a gun in general. The staff helped me choose a Ruger LCP, which I still enjoy shooting today. While it may be a pretty basic gun, it fit my needs at the time perfectly. In the years since my first visit, I've purchased a number of firearms and accessories from The Armories. I've also done a few FFL transfers through them as well. The thing that stands out for me the most throughout all of my visits is that the staff is genuinely happy to help you, even if you're just there to grab a single box of ammo or a $3 dollar cleaning brush. My background as a web developer doesn't really translate well when it comes to tinkering with firearms. I'm certain that I've come in with some incredibly dumb questions. The guys in the shop have always taken the time to explain things to me in a way where I feel more informed, even if it means taking something apart just to show me how it works. Normally I might point out a single staff member that went above and beyond, but it's honestly not fair because they've all been so helpful. So thanks to Eddie, Rob, Andrew, Owen, JD, Max, and whoever else's names I'm forgetting to mention. They all make The Armories way more than just a regular store. If you're looking for a gun shop that actually treats you like a person, your search is finished.

DO NOT SELL YOU GUN TO THEM. They will screw you over and lowball you and if you agree they'll go even lower. 0 honor amongst gun dealers.

This family-owned business consistently goes above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. They offer a fantastic selection of outdoor gear, men's and women's clothing, and an impressive variety of shoes for hiking, running, walking, and more. They also have an outlet store on Ronald Reagan. I have not been there yet, but I can tell you that they have a lot of name brands, highly discounted, and right now the Hoka Speed Goat 5s are on sale for an awesome price. A special shoutout to Rambo, a very knowledgeable young man and an Eagle Scout, who went out of his way to help me find the perfect hiking shoes. I was torn between the Hoka Speed Goats and Topos, but thanks to Rambo's expertise, I ultimately chose the Topos. They even brought several pairs of the Hokas over from their outlet location to the main store for me to make a decision, which was amazing. I highly recommend Travel Country for all your outdoor needs!

This business has operated since 1971, and it sells clothing, outerwear, footwear, outdoor gear (e.g., backpacks, kayaks, and tents), etcetera. Dozens of brands are available, including my favorites of ECCO, Marmot, The North Face, and Wigwam. According to Google, Travel Country Outfitters had a particular jacket in stock at the lowest price--The North Face Venture 2 Jacket for $60 plus ground shipping for $10. The next day, this business shipped my package. Three days later, UPS delivered the package to my home. I really like the style, color, and quality of the jacket, and I look forward to wearing it. Travel Country Outfitters does not sell all of the brands and styles that I prefer, but I would definitely consider buying from them again in the future.

Sadie at REI Winter Park is exceptional…read more She spent over an hour helping my fiancé prepare for a hiking trip to Costa Rica, carefully explaining the differences between trail shoes and guiding her to the right option for the terrain she'll face. Her knowledge was impressive, but what stood out most was her attention to fit -- she evaluated width, length, and even recommended going up half a size based on the shoe's construction and the demands of long hikes. She doesn't work on commission. She simply cares about getting it right. Sadie is exactly the kind of professional who keeps us coming back to REI.

In a recent time I finally decided I would invest in som hiking shoes, so it was really nice to have help from an employee when I chose several pairs, and then she brought out and extra pair that she said are more comfortable, and well I ended up purchasing that extra pair, thanks to her thoughtfulness. They have just about everything you need here for your backpacking, camping or hiking trip. But it can certainly get spendy. It's all the super high quality brands here so the price does not budge. There's a few sales here and there but that's why I wouldn't shop here so often. But once in a while it's nice and even to get inspiration for outdoors adventures. Something else cool about REI is they offer classes to members & nonmembers to teach you about backpacking, survival tips, and how to prepare for certain trips. I'm taking a free class for how to prepare for summiting Mount Everest Base Camp, how cool!
