Sportsman's Warehouse

"I had ordered a firearm online to ship to store and I messed up some paperwork so I had to wait 30 days to finish up paperwork. After 30 days I wasn’t going to be able to be in town for a few days after. I had called and talked to the gun department about it and they acknowledged what I had said and their response was it will be fine to just come down. (Mind you I’m traveling an hour and a half to visit the store). When I came back in to redo paperwork, they had told me they sent my firearm back since they hadn’t had a call to tell them I wasn’t going to be able to get there for a few more days.(even though I had called) He said “there was nothing they could do about it except reorder it and I would have to wait another week or two” and make that drive back. I walked out and gave up on them. If you want quality equipment and knowledgeable people I would choose RMI outdoors located down the road. They were AWESOME! Sportsman lost me as a customer forever."

"Well stocked for sure but some of the staff is not knowledgeable about local fishing and seeing someone on the floor is rare. Not sure of the quality of their flies now, but in the past they have been poor. They also do not take checks so I limit my business there to supplies I cannot find at Englund Marine or RMI. The prices are reasonable and at times they have great deals."

"Paid for items and they were shipped to the closest store, approximately 100 miles. My daughter was making a trip to that city and agreed to pick up the items for me. The store clerk would not give them to her."

"The manager of the firearms section was EXTREMELY rude and unknowledgeable of the California Penal Code. My father (a retired veteran and law enforcement officer) purchased ammunition online and had it shipped to the Eureka, California store (which is 2 hours away from our residence). The manager refused to let me (the purchaser’s daughter, who passes all requirements to obtain and purchase a firearm and a current CCW holder) pick up the ammunition. When my father called to inquire about the problem, the manager informed him that it would be breaking the law and he also threatened to call the Sheriff’s department. Pursuant to California Penal Code 30312(c), it is legal for immediate family members to share ammunition. I will NEVER waste my time or gas money to shop here again!"

"This store is enormous. It's a great combination of REI, Academy, and Bass Pro all together. You'll have a section for pretty much every kind of outdoor activity you can think of from hunting to paintball to backpacking and fishing. If you like the outdoors at all you should stop just to browse their aisles."
