Came here tonight to try on their Canada goose coats as I am looking to buy a new winter coat. I forget the name of the man (manager?) who helped me. He was very knowledgeable, kind, and patiently answered my many questions. In the end, I ended up buying a different coat online but my experience here was great. I would definitely be back if I ever needed camping, fishing, skiing or some other outdoor sports gear. They seem to have a lot of stock and good sales too. read more

Manager yelled at cashier when called for price check; took 5 minutes to get help for shoes. When no one was there. When asked for a price check on my item which was on the sale rack the manger went over and explained to me the sign was only valid for the front of the rack. R u serious bro? Great products, lousy service. read more

Love the store. The gun department is awesome. All the workers are knowledgeable and offer tons of help. They price match on guns which is great. There gun prices are unbeatable. Highly recommend if you're looking for a firearm. read more

Great selection and very competitive prices. I have bought a few firearms from here, and the staff is very knowledgeable.

Let me start off by saying I've been going to Ramsey outdoors for over a decade. I've always received top quality customer service since I've been going there with the exception of today .I took my son and his friend there to get his fishing reels new lines. The guy took the the reels and proceeded to re-line the reels. After a few minutes, he started saying what a mess this is. Keep in mind. These are brand new reels that were never used. I told the guy that his response was somebody use these reels and I know for a fact nobody did cause I bought them brand new. We were there that seemed like an eternity. With this guy bitching and moaning and complaining finally when he was done ,my son and his friend went to pick up the reels and he said you better learn how to fish and how to use those reels. Otherwise you'll be back here again. Just to let you know I've been fishing for about 50 years and my son's been fishing for about 15 years. There is no need for him to say something like that if you're having a bad day stay home. I'm all about customer service and he doesn't know a damn thing about customer service. It looks like they lost a customer a long-term customer. read more

Back to Ramsey Outdoor to see Ron about fulfilling my need for a semi-auto shotgun. I have purchased from here several times basically because of service, selection, price, and knowledge. I can say emphatically that Ron is by far, the most well versed and knowledgable at his craft than anyone i have come across in this business. No pressure, just patient and well timed answers to all and any questions. After "trying on" several styles, I decided to go with the Beretta A300 Ultima Patrol. The buying experience alone is worth the trip. Couple that with Ron's expert advise and by far the best cost around, makes this the one and only store i purchase firearms from. Customers please understand that when you factor in shipping, FFL transfer fees, and most charge credit card fees from other places, you definitely pay MORE when you buy elsewhere on line. read more

Great selection of pretty much anything you could need for the outdoors. Lots of Patagonia. Decent fishing and fly fishing section. The staff seemed friendly but didn't interact with them a ton. Prices are fine for a local brick and mortar store. read more

Love Ramsey outdoor. We got a northface vest, two barbour vests and a irish setter boot that I did end up returning and had no troubles bc the shoe was in perfect nonworn condition. Will definitely visit more often. read more

I've been trying to like this place since I was a teenager and they continue to disappoint. Staff is so rude and act like your bothering them... no help at all. I bought 2 boxes of worms, one box was missing some and the other box they were dead covered in mold. This day and age when everything can be delivered to your doorstep in 24 hrs you guys should be bending over backwards with customer service. read more

Great store for outdoor activities from fishing hiking snow boarding etc friendly staff knowledgeable Glad they had that Kirstead. Waterproof hat with the ear muffs that fold inside the hat warmest hat I ever had they are also open on Sundays that's also a plus George rudawsky. read more

I simply cannot say enough good things about the service my son and I received at the store! Peter, in the fishing department, was not only extremely knowledgeable, but went above and beyond to get my son set up with everything he needed for his new fishing rod. He taught my son about the correct lures and hooks to use, and then took the time to teach my son how to properly use the rod. It is rare to find service like this these days and I am truly thankful to Peter at Ramsey outdoor store! If I could give him 10 stars, I would. read more

Excellent variety of fishing tackle, components for DIY'ers, and fly tying, tackle boxes and bags, rods, artificial's and bait. Camping gear, well known brands of clothing, it's an emporium for an outdoor enthusiast. The staff knows their merchandise, and if you're a novice they can guide the person to what's appropriate. From conversations with some of the staff they use the items and know the subject and the field. read more

See all

This is one of the best local sporting goods shops I've been too. Way better than the chain brands. They have everything you need and I especially like how I've been taken care of in the ammo department. Even with all the shortages when they have it their prices are fair and they don't take advantage of the current situation read more

I placed an order online on April 16th. On April 28th, I still hadn't gotten any updates on my order so I emailed customer service. They responded with "We will look into this. Once we have more information we will update you by email." 8 DAYS LATER I still HAD NOT gotten any updates. I called customer service and was transferred but never talked to after 20 min. So I emailed and got this reply "We are very sorry for this delay it seems the order was cancelled at this time. We were not able to fulfill this order and you should not be charged. Due to COVID-19 we are trying our best to keep up with messages and shipping of items with limited staff. Again very sorry for this delay. Please take this coupon code for next future purchase of 20% off non-sale item." DO NOT BLAME COVID-19 on your poor customer service. I'm not upset that the items didn't ship. I'm upset that you don't understand the value of a customer. Don't "stay open" if you can't manage your customers properly. Asking a customer to be patient is 24-48 hours...not weeks. Here is a free coupon code for anyone who wants to use it because I won't be: Appreciate0320 read more

Ramsey outdoor is awesome. The gentlemen in the firearm department specifically are extremely professional, knowledgeable, and without a doubt the best salesmen I've dealt with in regards to gun stores. I will only go back here from now on when purchasing anything hunting/fishing or outdoor related. They also have a wide selection of optics and pistol optics/rmr's that are rarely all seen physically in stock at 1 location. read more

Buyer beware. This review is for an online purchase and rejected return. My husband is a Big and Tall man and he needed some base layer tights. I ordered several different pair from different places, returned them and had zero issues. But it was a totally different story here. Apparently they do not accept returns on underwear (which is fine) but I have never encountered base layer tights being considered a hygienic issue. But it's still fine if it was clearly indicated, but it was not. Additionally, they indicated that the tights didnt have any tags on them and I didn't include the original packaging. There was nothing special about the packaging. It was packaged in a plain bag with no tags attached. They were basically just tossed in the bag. I will never buy anything from them again and do not be surprised if they dont accept your return. read more

I needed a complicated warranty repair on a Hobie board that I had bought from a less reputable dealer out of state. The guys at Ramsey Outdoor worked with Hobie to find a solution and take care of it. It's a great store with great people. read more

You know when you go to a store and people seem to be friendly, but they are not? That's exactly that store. If you ask for sizing, they will just tell you to look for things yourself. I would have given them 4 stars, but the prices are outrages, it makes REI look like a good deal. read more

I've been trying to purchase a kayak for the past two weeks at the Succasunna location. Instead of supporting the big box stores I chose to support a local business. I've been to this location three times in the past two weeks but I continue to get ignored when trying to purchase a kayak. Initially I thought It was just me but yesterday I had my wife accompany me and the same results. I also walked over to the Patagonia section and all three woman in the section also ignored me as I looked at the hats near the small register area and they never asked if I needed any help. I'm so disappointed with this business.... read more

I went to the Ramsey store today to pickup a gun purchase. They had called me to tell me my NICS check was back. Upon arrival, Joe looked into the state system and advised that my permits had not been entered. I called Roxbury police who informed me that their part was done and that it was up to the state to complete. So, I could not pickup the gun. I departed very frustrated and was on my way to the state police barracks to see if they could help me. About 10 Minutes later Joe called me again and told me to come back that Benny went into the system and solved the issue with my permits. So, I went back and sure enough the problem was solved. If it were not for Benny I might have had a very tuff time trying to wade through a bureaucratic system to find the right person to solve this. He (Benny) took GREAT initiative by getting on the phone for me to solve the problem. I want to commend Benny for taking the time to make sure one of Ramseys customers was well taken care of. Thank-You Ramsey's for have such a great employee like Benny to serve your customers. In todays world were employers are finding it hard to even get people to come to work, you have an employee that is willing to go the extra mile to make a happy customer. Please give Benny the recognition he deserves for his much needed extra efforts. Respectfully, WILLIAM E. McCABE 973-479-2008 read more

Great staff! I went to make a purchase in the hunting section and everyone was extremely helpful! Mike who was helping my father and I really was knowledgeable and helped us make the best decision on our purchase. All the employees were wonderful, helpful and made the experience so easy! I will absolutely be back and will recommend them to all my friends read more

Great store! Had the two abstract outdoor things I was after in the brands I was hoping for! I'm not a local to the area, I'm from Michigan and I found this store has a great selection. From swimming masks and fins, to kayaks, hiking gear, tents, clothes, skillets, solar panels, firearms, ammunition, and much more. This is an equivalent to a Jays sporting goods, Gander Mountain, REI, sierra trading post etc. read more

Went to Ramsey outdoor and Mike, Dan and Ron were extremely knowledgeable! They answered all my questions and were extremely thorough!

Superb selection of Patagonia Kuhl Carhartt and hiking boots and gear. Liked the helpfulness of the people working there. Small business and good vibe. read more

Such great customer service! I got a Carhartt lost in the mail and they followed up with me right away and sent a new one out free of charge and even added a personalized note with it! Would always shop with them . So nice! read more

The old guy behind the gun counter is a real douchebag, PARTICULARLY TO WOMEN!!! He went out of his way to publicly humiliate my mother and I not once but twice when inquiring about a particular product while other customers were present. As we turned to leave the department , he then proceeded to raise his voice and had the AUDACITY to imply that we would be misusing the product we were inquiring about (according to him). This instance occurred not once but TWICE over the span of a two year period with the same man. This old geezer's attitude is rude, demeaning, sexist, and altogether uncalled for. Never returning to this store again! read more

A pleasant surprise. You will not get lost among the merchandise here. Friendly staff, accommodating, and community oriented. Competitive prices, and quality stuff for your next outdoor excursion. Do not go to a chain store or shop online. Head here first. Customer service is what makes this store appealing. read more

Ramsey Outdoor Store is where  you want to go, if you are looking for excellent products and advice  regarding fishing, hunting, camping, canoeing and other activities.   Years ago, I received the best fishing advice I have ever received from  an employee in this fine store.  Far better than from some  professionals who have written books on fishing.  I went from  practically never catching a trout to limiting-out sometimes.  Also, the  staff have never tried to sell me anything that I did not need and have  always been very generous with their time.  They have always tried to  save me money and even referred me to another store one time, for a  purchase.  It reminded me of one scene I saw in the movie- "Miracle on  34th St."  That was a movie, but Ramsey Outdoor is real!  Also, the  employees are very generous with their time and go out of their way to  act as consultants to customers.  There have been so many staff members  who have been personable and true friends to customers, I have found  over the decades of my shopping.  You may find a lower price on some  items, at times, but no other store will provide the excellent advice  you will receive in this store.  They will help you find the right  product for the specific activity you are interested in, explain how to  used it, demonstrate proper usage of it and make sure that what you  purchase fits you personally.  I have not found such superior customer  service in any other sport shop ever.  Off hand, I can't think of any  other store of any kind with better customer service.  These people are  experts.  The names of staff members that I remember include Andros, Joe  and Jan.  The cashier and other staff are excellent, but I am sorry  that I cannot remember their names. More recently, the cashier whose initials are JLH was helpful, personable, polite and efficient.   "Bean"  was personable, helpful, knowledgeable, efficient, polite and  professional and so was the man who was sitting at the desk in the  camping department on 9 18 20 in the morning. 12 04 21 update:  The last two times I called this store, the employees were knowledgeable, polite, helpful, patient and professional.  One person's name that I remember was Lee! January, 2022: The employees continue to be very knowledgeable, personable, professional, helpful, patient and honest! I continue to receive great advice from all of the associates in the fishing department and most recently, Mark was a great help! I don't know the names of the other associates. read more

This is the "small" Ramsey Outdoor. There are, or were, two much larger stores that have a far better selection of camping equipment, but unfortunately the Paramus store closed. There is still one in Succasunna. Despite its small size and limited selection of camping equipment. the selection is well thought out. And unlike Campmor, Ramsey Outdoor carries fishing and hunting equipment. In fact this location seems to focus on hunting and fishing more so than the other location. The staff is knowledgeable, but can be on the annoying side. If you tell them once you don't need help that should be enough. It's a bit much when they ask you every 5 minutes if you need any help. read more

Not a place to shop no coordination whatsoever between the store and the online store you make the order then you wait they will tell you that they are out of stock read more

Needed a new fishing reel set with line. Very helpful on the phone and then quick and courteous in getting me ready to get back on the water. Highly recommend using their fishing department. read more

Great customer service - until you need to return something. I purchased a bunch of stuff from Ramsey's Ledgewood location for Christmas. One item was duplicated and I wanted to return it. God forbid they track customer's purchases to make returns easy, but without a receipt the best they could is store credit. That was OK, but when they gave me nonsense about lowest price in their system, even though the item I was returning had the price tag still on it - I decided for the markup most items have here, customer service should do much better. Save your money, don't shop here, because they really don't care if you come back. This negative review could have been avoided for $5. Thanks for wasting my Sunday afternoon turning over my place looking for a receipt. read more

I typically go out of my way to support local instead of a big box store. So I went in ready to buy a Beretta shotgun as a Christmas present with my wife. They luckily had the exact model I was looking to buy...perfect. The older employee helping me had an attitude. He wouldn't even take it out of the box/wrapping to see it. Who buys a shotgun without seeing if it fits you? Really confusing. Update: took my business elsewhere. there are good alternatives in the area, with similar pricing, that are happy to make a sale. read more

I've been shopping at the ROS for over 40 years. I've recently purchased a shotgun and a handgun there and have used their FFL services for some firearms I've sold. I went there today to ask about using their FFL services for a rifle I purchased on line. They told me because they sell the same rifle (although they have none in stock) they would charge me $100 instead of $50. They have lost me as a customer. I'll never spend a dime there again. read more

I find this store to be completely lacking in all aspects. Their sales reps, managers, and cashiers are all lacking in professionalism, knowledge, and friendliness. Their products are extremely over-priced. Other outdoor stores and online shopping would be much cheaper. I try to support local, private businesses but not when they are run like this! I also overheard two cashiers talking about a manager that was fired because he was conducting himself in a very unprofessional manner, including making many of the female workers feel uncomfortable. Supposedly he was fired for sexual harassment. What kind of establishment is this!?!? I'd recommend staying away! read more

I purchased a long rifle today I received the best service I ever received at a gun store in the great state of NJ. I was helped by a man named Joe in the hunting department and let me tell he really took care of me their prices are reasonable but the service and knowledge was excellent would recommend anyone in northern nj to shop at Ramsey outdoor in Ramsey and see joe. read more

I wish I could say that my experience was better because I like to patronize small businesses but sadly, it wasn't. I went there with my family to buy some camping equipment for our son and while the selection was decent and the sales person was knowledgable, there was a definite vibe of indifference as well as a lack of customer service skills. The salesperson would help us and then walk away so that we had to keep asking her to help with the next item and the cashier was just downright rude to us. I attribute both of these issues to the fact that both were very young and clearly untrained in customer service but if management doesn't care enough to train their staff, why should I bother to shop there? read more

I like this Sporting Goods store, especially for the purchase of firearms. There selections are descent and the staff are friendly and helpful. I've been to quite a few gun stores, and for whatever reason, they always act like there doing you a favor rather then treating you like a value customer, which this store does! I recommend this store to anyone, and I believe you won't be the disappointed. read more

Nice group of guys, although it may take them awhile to warm up to you. For the most part very knowledgeable, ask for Ron with any questions you may have, he is a wealth of knowledge. read more

Ramsey Outdoor is my favourite choice of outdoor accessories and clothing. I can walk and find the selection and sizing of all my needs. The sales help is amazing and the girls at the checkout are friendly and smart. They are always accommodating and call the other locations and have the product delivered if it's not in stock in Ramsey. So happy they are in my area. read more
