I would highly recommend Dattilo's to anyone needing a gun for protection and safety…read more The gentlemen were polite, efficient and professional. My son and l received the BEST of professional advice when we went there on Saturday ( yesterday). Concerns about comparative features between guns, laws about "carry" were easily answered. Although, we were not aware that Datilio's is closed at noon on Saturdays, all required paperwork was handled and necessary phone calls made in a professional and timely manner. All the shelves were stocked with an unbelievable variety of fishing tackle , archery paraphernalia, etc. for avid sportsmen of all types. We were AMAZED at the ease with which our questions and concerns were handled by all the gentlemen working at Datilio's . They were only too happy to help novices and experts who walked through the doors ! Inadvertently, we held up two employees 20 -25 minutes past closing time, but were treated with courtesy and respect the entire time. We had no idea that we had come so late, and had we known, we would have come to Datilio's much earlier ! We are so fortunate to have Datilio's Gun and Tackle Shop in our community. We had heard wonderful things about Datilio's from a number of sources, now we know them to be true. Thank you, Datilio's. You come with our highest recommendation to those who are looking for outstanding service and selection for fishing tackle, archery and gun accoutrements! Thank you .

All in one convenience store that has everything from beer & wine to bait & tackle and even…read morecreemees! By far the best bait store in the whole Vermont side of lake Champlain/burlington area that I've been in. They had triple the amount of isles of tackle than any other store including Walmart. Wide variety of tackle and different brands. The literal cherry on top is the creemee stand built into the side of the building. Great creemees at a great price. My only slight criticism is that the creemee was a little drippy and I didn't even go on a hot day. Nonetheless, great all in one store that you could get literally anything. I walked out with a bottle of wine, some fishing tackle and a maple creemee, not many places you can do that at!

Once I picked it out I started to do a little window shopping, the woman at the counter saw me and apologized for not greeting me when I walked in.... In a world where give you vacant, here was a sincere apology for not welcoming me. I could have bought it online for $45 (plus shipping). I paid $50 and had it. In the last 10 years there are new owners, and definitely the same great service and possibly better prices. If you shop enough you could find things cheaper -- somewhere --- but you won't match the service. One of the things I like the best about Blue Line (no one says 'Sports Shop') is that for a small store, family owned, they usually give you a couple choice --- high end and cheaper May 2013: Have to revisit this, went in expecting to by a 2/3 wt fly reel. I had talked to (learned later) the owner on the phone and he implied there was a reel in the store. There wasn't. I asked the gentleman for a spool price, to order, and he said only the owner was allowed to give that out.... not the best way to do service

I bought a firearm from George at 802 Firearms online…read more Turns out my liscense had expired and I was told at Parros to just renew and print out my liscense and all was good. My Mistake, not going back to Perros! Thank You, Matt. George kept me waiting much time until my physical liscense arrived. All the while being short and not friendly during our interactions. Everything about 802firearms is sgnificantly less than professional! George the owner insisted I needed my actual liscense. I called the Middlesex Police department and the state & both informed me this was George's policy not law! I had my liscense and it was valid in every state. I asked about a refund however "Honest" George has that all covered as well. You can not get your weapon and there is a restocking fee for returns although you will be prohibited by policy to come pick up what you had pre-paid for! The person at the state actually referred me to Parro's! YEP!!! 802firearms is a sleezy operation run by an egotistical kid out of some crappy office building in Burlington Vermont There is no shop!!! If you wish to buy a new weapon, legally in a dirty parking lot, this is your Gun Store! I would highly recommend you go into a professional shop run by true pros and never, ever think of doing business with this clown at 802. No Way & Beware, STAY FAR AWAY!!!
