    This place is my "Go To" whenever I need to buy a gun or fire live ammo on their indoor range…read more I was there buying my third 1873 Colt clone chambered in 45 LC because I needed one with a specific barrel length which they had in stock. I found the gun department staffed with EXPERIENCED and attentive employees who participate in shooting activities like I enjoy and were able to offer a discount that made a good deal even better. I feel that if you exhibit the safety habits that make everyone on both sides of the counter feel comfortable and show employees that you would not be a danger to yourself or others you will find employees who are happy to serve and even train you depending on your experience level. Don't expect the same happy response from that employee if you show disrespect for gun safety or have nefarious ownership reasons because those employees protect my rights to legal ownership and the stores best interests which I rely on and keeps me coming back when ever the need dictates.

    TL;DR Managment/ownership treats customers and employees terribly, would not spend money here…read more Repeat bad experiences, I'd rather buy online than go back in this store. As an avid adventurer of the western US, I tend to visit outdoor stores wherever I travel to see what their idea of adventure is there and take the chance to upgrade gear that's frustrating to use or worn out over time. I've visited Bill Jackson's on two separate occasions now, heading in each time with about $500 worth of gear in mind to shop for. The first time I came, I got great help from multiple associates and planned to purchase gear off of their advise, but witnessed a confrontation between management and an associate that I recall as mild but disruptive enough it made me leave the store without buying anything. I didn't come back for about 8 months. Now I'm back in town for a few weeks of work before heading on a 2,700 mile bikepacking journey and really needed to grab a few items I hoped they'd have in stock. Being interesting in all outdoor activities, I started talking with an associate about the ski shop they were building the last time I was here. He keyed in that I had ski knowledge from my time tuning skis and custom fitting ski boots out west and started talking to me about part time work as they expected to need some extra hands with ski knowledge and took me to show me their ski selection. To get there, we had to walk through an area that he explained was sectioned off for an upcoming sale, so not yet available, but the necessary route to the still-open ski shop. He made a pretty good case for their ski shop and my wheels were turning about coming to help them out in the fall. On our way back through the sale area, I asked a question about the items we were walking past and the associate was very clear that those items were not available for sale until the official sale start date, but took the opportunity to educate me about them(I knew very little about diving equipment but am curious to learn). I was quickly convinced that a decent snorkeling kit was necessary equipment to enjoy the area and decided I'd get a setup. Before he got a chance to redirect me to where the currently available snorkeling gear was(I could tell it was coming, this area was also tiny compared to the sale area), an angry manager/owner appeared ready to tear apart the kind and helpful associate that had just taught me what I needed to know to spend an extra couple hundred dollars on top of the items I was already planning. I hurriedly left the area while she continued to holler at me and once I passed the threshold of that room I heard her resume berating the associate in anger. I walked myself over to the full price scuba stuff and found another helpful associate, but I could not bring myself to buy anything from this store after that experience. It was not unreasonable for her to ask us to move along since we had stopped in a place we were meant to pass through, but she was incredibly rude to the associate for going above and beyond to take care of an enthusiastic customer. I won't spend money here, that manager is the most unkind person I've encountered since I've been in Tampa. In a town of incredibly kind people, there is no place for that. Very sad, I really wanted to like this store. The associates seem to be knowledgeable and passionate about the outdoors, but they don't deserve to be treated that way.

    Louis at Good Feet has Saved my life!!! I can now walk without pain in my ankle…read more It's no easy feet (pardon the pun) to walk in pain. It colors your entire life with stress. I owe my renewed gait to Good Feet and Louis!!! Thank you!!! The bonus is a life time warranty....so happy that changing feet get the care that's needed over the years!!!

    Thanks to Good Feet I finally found a wide width shoe, after almost giving up the search since…read moreapparently all the major department and retail shoe stores I visited in Tampa Bay no longer carry wide widths. So I bought two pairs only after receiving great traditional customer service. First your foot print is taken to determine one's pressure points and measured so knowledge is power. Then, recommendations are made. Here's a store where one can actually sit comfortably while trying on various pairs of shoes until the correct fit is chosen. What a concept! No pressure sales persons. Instead easy intelligent conversation like you'd have with a family member who you'd depend on honest advice to compare selections. And the best part my shoes were on sale so having savings, selection, a quality shoe which actually fits with a company which will stand behind their product, well I'm sold. I'm an Elite reviewer with no connection to Good Feet. In fact, I was actually headed to the Lutz Premier outlet mall for one final desperate attempt to find a wide width show which fits when I decided to go across the street to have lunch at Zukku- San sushi bar which I found on Yelp. Upon leaving the restaurant I noticed that Good Feet was a few doors away so I thought I'd give this a look since I was about out of options. Suffice to say, after Good Feet I found no reason to search the mall for shoes. So I beat feet for home. I bought Brooks running and walking shoes. They are among the top rated for men & women who run, well made and they accomodate my custom orthotics.
