Ray Gunter always has what we need. Very nice selection of guns to choose from, and always has the parts we need if we're building custom. And Abby gladly will greet you. read more

Snotty clerk. Didn't ask anybody in there if he could help them. I walk out shaking my head and two of the guys in there left when I did. I don't image the sell much of anything they only had two or three guns on display and they sure weren't offering you to look at em any further. Not the feeling I was looking for. I suggest he move to Portland or Seattle where his attitude is reflected. Stay outta small towns the care. read more

Parking Tip! Go past the Shop, turn left on the next available street, and turn left again and you're set! Parking is on the right, nice dog walk strip there too! They did it! Just over the tracks on Oregon Avenue, right beside City Hall! Its the nicest gun shop I've ever been in! If you like the decor just wait for the service! I've been a loyal customer for years and there's a good reason! The prices are lower than any other shop in the area, and if you ever have any questions just ask. They're always happy to answer any questions. While you're purchasing, why not sign up for a class or two. You're going to find out really quickly that your investment in your own safety was worth it!

I have bought guns and accessories from most of the gun shops and sporting goods stores in the area. Emerald Valley Armory was by far the best experience i have had in purchasing guns plus things that go with guns. The owners Ray and Gary have knowledge and experience of guns and there accessories. from BB guns, to traditional hunting rifles, pistols, to modern sporting rifles and pistol .22 cal to 50 cal. No BS if they don't know the answer to your fire arm question they will help you find the right answer. The owners and staff are very helpful. Great prices also and wide variety and large selection of fire arms and accessories from and they have tested and used what they in stock. Also took firearms safety class and it was great. I challenge you to stop by and take a look you wont be disappointed. Best prices and service in the area period. read more

My rating is just random meaning neither negative nor positive. I have no experience with this firm, but I am writing regarding a video about the business. A video on Youtube made at this location indicated that the store offered great service and competitive pricing and has an online presence. Since I frequently purchase firearms, parts, ammo, and other accessories online, I decided to take a look. The "online presence" to me means listing products for sale, price, shipping, and a facility to accept payment. This site offered none of the above. My comment is that factual information would have saved me the trouble. I realize that this is really trivial, but I thought it deserved mentioning. Otherwise, I am certain that this is a good place to do business locally. read more

I took the Concealed Carry Permit class yesterday, 3-28-21. What a great experience! Raye is a knowledgeable and personable instructor, and the classroom portion of the training (About 5 hours) is thorough and even entertaining. Raye keeps it moving, covering all aspects of concealed carry issues and keeps the group involved with thought problems and humorous anecdotes. After the classroom portion we all went to the range to fire 100 rounds. Some people didn't have a pistol--no problem, Raye and his crew will supply a loaner and ammunition as well! The range fire portion was exceptionally well done--with small class sizes there is ample time for individual coaching. About half our class were women, a couple of whom clearly were novice shooters--no matter, Raye and Troy were unfailingly helpful and encouraging. An older lady, very clearly inexperienced, was shooting on my right side at the range, using one of Raye's loaner .380's. At first she was flinching with every shot and made a few rookie mistakes, such as inadvertently dropping her pistol's magazine.Raye, and especially Troy, stood with her and patiently coached and encouraged her--by the end of the shoot she was much more confident and shooting like she'd been doing it her whole life. The class is only $75.00 and worth every penny and more--try getting that kind of individualized attention and instruction anywhere else for that money--and it was FUN! Thanks Raye and Troy, I will be a better, more effective and safer pistol shooter due to this experience. Wish I could give more than 5 stars. read more

Emerald Valley Armory is the only place I will go to to get all my firearm needs. The owner & staff's knowledge far exceeds that of the box store's employees. Add to that the lengths they will go to to help you get what you want/need. read more

Raye Gunter (owner) of EVA is cool cat, knows his business (from Class III to manufacturing and repair) is honest as hell and a Vet, too. Support Raye with your business and you will be pleased with the quality and capabilities of his service. For all you enthusiasts in Portland or elsewhere, make the drive as it is well worth the little extra effort for a quality experience, and even if you don't buy something, meeting his 180 pound Great Dane is more than worth the effort. I have personally done a lot of business with Raye and will continue to do so. CEW Belknap FFL/C3 read more
