Love Gartman. Ammo when nobody else does during the shortage, and they know they can charge more…read more It's marked up due to the market, but they're not price gouging like other places. They also somehow maintain a great selection of firearms considering how bad the shortage is. It's a hidden gem since most people I know don't know about them. My cop buddies all love them though.

Just bought a sig 1911 tacops from here and I was very satisfied with the overall experience. The…read morestore itself is awesome and caters more to the tactical/home defense side as apposed to the hunting/sporting side. If your looking for all the cool shit they probably have it. The prices are good and they will work with you on that as well. Ended up getting my tacops for $50 less than what four seasons is charging which if you know anything about four seasons it's hard to do. The staff there were really cool and patient with me even though I was being an indecisive pain in the ass. I will definitely be going there again and saving myself the trip all the way to Woburn for four seasons. FYI. I came here a while back and it has the same name but completely different store. It use to be owned by an old German guy who was cool and had a pretty cool store. It's now owned by his daughter and ran by the old owner of zero hour and I really like what they did with the place. Also the old German guy is still there in an urn above one of the counters lol I don't know why but I think that's awesome.

Came in here to buy some arrows, the guy acted like we were asking for the combination to the safe…read morethat holds the Declaration of Independence. Then, I couldn't find my way around and a woman with glasses ran out of the back room asking me in a paranoid voice CAN I HELP YOU WITH SOMETHING?!?!?! looking me up and down like I was going to rob the place. Super uncomfortable experience. I hope they don't treat everyone like that.

I got interested in archery kind of by accident. When I was in middle school, we had a…read moreShakespearean festival, which included archery among other things. The bows they had were these cheap compounds (with the wheels) intended for children... which in fairness, we were. Well that, and one step up is five times the cost. At some point many years after, I found this place. I was excited to try my hands at archery once again. Even though this place is a little out of the way, I still venture out here when I want to have a go of being a sort of Robin Hood, only one who is not nearly as good of a shot. I. Cost - Their rates are extremely reasonable for what you get. Shooting on the range is $12/hour if you bring your own equipment, and only $14 to borrow theirs. This cost includes instruction too! This is not a private lesson, but they will help you along the way with stance, aim, draw, and other such basics. II. Staff - their staff are some of the nicest, most patient people I have met! Whether they are telling you the 1st time or 101st time to bring your hand to your ear, they are just as patient and calm. Also, during my time shooting, adjusting the draw weight (on the compound) as well as the sight to my ideal levels was a non issue. III. Range - The range is pretty nice! It is well lit, fairly spacious, and they have targets at two different distances, although, I couldn't tell you what they are. I can however tell that the shorter distance is great for beginners... not so far that it becomes discouraging, but close enough that it is fairly challenging. When you are shooting, do be careful of obstacles like pipes or columns... but if you stay in your lane, you should be fine. IV. Equipment - Out of the bows you are able to rent there are recurves (think Robin Hood) and Compound bows (with wheels). I am fond of the latter, but must say the Genesis bow (make of compound) is not my favorite thing in the world. The reason for this is (don't quote me on this) compounds have a let off in weight when fully drawn. The Genesis bows do not (at least not a very significant one). I will not penalize this place for that because these are fairly cheap (~$100), durable, easily adjustable, and according to online markets a great entry level bow for people of all ages. When it comes to equipment, think of it in parallel with bowling . If you are just there to bowl for a bit of fun, you have entry level equipment (balls, shoes) that are durable, and good for those who don't take the sport too seriously. Same thing here, the bows and arm-guards aren't spectacular, and there is no mechanical release provided. If you come to shoot for an hour for fun, you probably don't care that much. As for me, I'd like to keep it casual for now... but even if I end up taking archery more seriously, I will not hesitate at returning to this place to practice!
