First, Fort Thompson's is a great place to shop. They DO know what they are doing, better than any other place I've been to in years. My father has been going to them since the mid 80's when they were at their old location, and I've been shopping with them since that time myself. In fact, several of the guys that work there now, were there at the old location when I was a kid. How are you going to convince me or anyone else that guys that have been there for almost 15 years don't know what they are doing? How many other places have employees for that long? I can count 6 gun and archery guys off the top of my head that have been there that long. I noticed on a Yahoo review page that this otterhide dude singed in as a different user name and pasted the exact same review that you see here. So, if you ask me, this guy either was one of those grumpy demanding customers who thinks there should be a red carpet for him and didn't get his way or is possibly a shill for one of their competitors. Either way, whether a shill or not, to post a review that contains false information about a company, just because you likely can't ever be satisfied with anything anyway, is not ethical. You will also noticed that they recently answered all of the posts on that other review page, and they probably don't know that the same people are ripping at them on this or other review pages. Anyway, I'll get off the pedestal. I have to give them 5 stars because I know the truth about them. Almost 25 years of my own experiences in their 2 locations. I still have the first 2 rifles my dad ever bought from them. They will also replace a gun or anything else if it's bad from the manufacturer, etc. They've done that twice for us. And their prices ARE better than most people you will go to locally. I don't care what anyone says. They also have a great selection of quality merchandise, maybe not everything under the sun, but if you are looking for cheaply made crap, you won't find it there. In the new location, they have an intercom system and I can't tell you how many times I've been in there and seen people laughing at their antics with each other. They are NICE people, will make you laugh, say yes sir and yes ma'am to you, and they care about helping. Guess I'm getting mad the more I write this. I'll end it with this, Fort Thompson, you guys are GREAT! Don't let grumpy old cry babies get you down.
