I have no idea why there is such a difference in ratings on this shop. The Gun Shop was average at best ... with a fair selection of weapons displayed and for sale. The prices were nothing to write home about - average to high. I bought a Marlin .308 ($391.00) with a Redfield 4-12X42mm scope ($211.00) @ $602.00, I'm within $75.00 pos/neg. I was looking for the 26""barrel XL7 so, I'm okay with it. But I've been to gun shows and shops all over ... and spent 22+ years in the U.S.Army - I've talked with alot of people that know guns. I was not impressed with the help/staff at all. They were less that helpful and tried to talk down to me as if this was my first rodeo. The person that actually helped me the most - knew the least (had to asked other staffers for information). Some of the opinionated advice that was given (unasked for) was offered as if the guy knew something no one else could be privy to (and was wrong!). Looked at the range to temper and zero the Marlin - FORGET IT!!! (read sig226 - 26 Sep 2011). The sign was posted off the Interstate (I20) and I was needing a break - Gun shop was okay. Prices not all that. Staff treated you as a stranger. Range sucked. Info exchange was less than that of some one from Academy sports. Only ones writting good reviews of this gun shop are locals that don't have a real shop to compare to. Sorry ... just not impressed!
