The first time I walked into this store, I was amazed. Assistants behind the counters were knowledgeable and helpful. I spent about an hour just gazing at guns and accessories, and really had an enjoyable time. Before I left, I bought four boxes of ammunition, and the price was fair. Their asking prices seem to be fair, considering their massive inventory. Okay. That's the good side. Great inventory, great assistants and clerks, and a very nice store. For that, they get five stars.\r

Now, today I went in, and accidentally interrupted a conversation. Turns out it was a conversation with Jeff (the owner?) and a guy selling a gun. Jeff asked me if I had a question, and I asked what it was. He says ""A shotgun"". I walked away shaking my head. He later found me, and explained that that was the last time that I would interrupt his conversation. I told him that it certainly was, and that it would never have been an issue if he had told me that they needed to be left alone (like I politely asked him what the gun was). I most certainly would respect that response and walk away. (I respected his wishes, anyway, even after his smart-alec remark). I apologized for the intrusion, but he didn't accept it. He just told me ""I know one thing. That will never happen again."" I agreed, looked around a little longer, noting things that I'd like to buy elsewhere, and left. I had hoped to buy some more ammo, but after that attitude, I vowed to never buy anything there again. I'm sure he gets enough business from people that put up with him, that he doesn't need my money. That's the bad: The owner getting in my face and essentially declaring that I'll never interrupt him again. For that, HE ALONE gets gets his store minus five stars.\r

There you have it. One star, because I can't give HIM zero. I do feel sorry for his employees, though, as I'm sure his true side shows up with them, also. I can't imagine what he'd do if I made an offer to him on one of his guns... Very scary.
Pros: Great Inventory, Great assistance from the employees.
Cons: The owner has a terrible attitude.
