R. E. I. not just for the outdoorsy guy…read more they got stuff for your gal who may want to swim the Erie Canal. they got freezed dried food darling I wouldn't eat it even if I was starving. They sell hiking boots and Appalachian trail map even porta potties in case you need to take a crap. They even have books on wild mushrooms because you never should assume otherwise you'll soon be in a tomb. R.E.M....I meant R.E.I. You should give it a try It's not just for the outdoor you should come and explore never know what you're looking for all at the Barrett Parkway store.

I love REI but not this location. When I returned a pair of running shoes after they reopened due…read moreto COVID, the clerk was very nasty to me, saying that the shoes had been worn a lot. I told her that I had purchased two pairs just before COVID so that I could alternate days of wearing the shoes. The store closed for COVID before I could return the defective pair. Instead of wearing out the one pair, I decided to wear the defective pair until the store reopened. I even showed her both pairs of shoes so that she could see the defect for herself. Both the clerk and manager, whom she called over to examine the shoes, were very nasty and treated me like a criminal, although I did nothing to violate their return policy. I also had my bike tuned up and repaired there. Some of the services for which I had paid were not completed. When I asked to have them done, the mechanic was very nasty. When I took the bike with me on an RV trip across country, one of my riding companions, who is a triathlete, pointed out other problems that should have been repaired. I will never use the repair shop at this location again!

On April 18th, I took the Lower and Upper Receiver Assembly Build Class taught by Shep and it was…read morean AMAZING experience and class. Shep thoroughly explained everything and answered every question. If you ever see the class provided in the future, 10 out of 10, I recommend that you sign up!!!

My review is based not on the store itself, full of nice employees and stocked with interesting…read moreprepper products, but rather on their gunsmith. What a bad experience with this guy. Judging from some of the others reviews, I'm not the only one who's had the pleasure ... ahem ... of dealing with this guy. I have an Sig P365 xMacro. Nice EDC pistol except for the trigger. Bought an MCarbo trigger on-line but I no longer have the manual dexterity to do detailed gun work so I took it to Tru Prep. The gunsmith says, I hate working on those and don't want to do it. Fine, I thought, I'll just go somewhere else. But then he follows that with, I'd have to charge you an arm and a leg to do it. I asked how much is an arm and a leg in dollars. Hundred bucks. Sheesh. But I need it done so I said, proceed. How long will it take? A week, he says. Two weeks go by and I haven't heard from him. I call the store. He's not there but Amy, he's be of their awesome employees, offers to email the gunsmith right away. I simply want to know when my pistol will be ready. No response from the gunsmith. I call the shop last week and manage to get him on the phone. When will my pistol be ready? This week, he says. I wait until today, Sunday. I go in and he's got an attitude (how DARE I expect him to meet his commitment, right?). I merely said, I'm here to pick up my pistol. No apology whatsoever, the guy just hands it back. Three weeks and I still don't have my trigger installed. Would I recommend this place for gunsmithing work? Am I allowed to say HELL NO! on Yelp? Again, the store itself is staffed by nice people. My problem is with the arrogant, undependable gunsmith. Unfortunately there's not a way to post a review about him without dinging the store as well. However, perhaps the owner will see this negative review and realize he's got a problem employee who's reflecting poorly on the place as a whole.
