Prices were right, and super friendly service. We even got into chatting about our tour travels for a bit. I didn't get to check out the full inventory of drums and cymbals, but I will say I was impressed by what I did see at a glance - way bigger store than I expected for a small college town in Missouri. Cheers, fellas! And good luck with your business!

I browsed the store and they carry a small batch of mostly mid to high end firearms. For example CMMG, Sig Rifles, and FN. also have a wall of pistols, mostly Glock but others sprinkled in.

We were finally in market for purchasing two types of guns so went to webpage shopped a bit and signed up for their emails We were ready and kind of excited. We found the Black Rifle location went in and were met with 2 people that were short with their answers and had zero interest in asking us any questions. They didn't have much inventory,as expected, but we were interested in one fire arm but decided to give our business elsewhere since they didn't care about getting our business. Very disappointed with the store and service. Totally different than they present on talk radio. It's a real shame.

I have been an Alpine Shop customer for years. They have a good selection for a smaller store, and…read morethe staff really know their stuff. Because they are a smaller shop, you get more hands-on customer service. They also offer classes and lectures for different outdoor activities (kayaking, hiking, etc.). It is a great place to go if you are a novice or a more experienced outdoorsman. My most recent experience at the Columbia Alpine Shop illustrates just why I like this place so much. My husband and I went in to get new hiking boots. We are getting into overnight backpacking, and need hiking boots that can stand up to long, multi-day hikes. A staff member (named Adam) approached us within a minute or so to see if we needed help. He then spent over and hour helping us try on and test various boots. Being an experienced backpacker, Adam had some personal recommendations on boots and was able to highlight in detail the pros and cons of each boot we tried. We had done some research going in, but Adam helped us make a much more educated choice. We were able to test the boots on a hill imitator Alpine Shop had in the boot section, and they even let us put on a pair of thicker socks (without buying them) to test fit. This is a friendly, laid-back shopping experience, and while inventory might not be as large as big chain stores, the service and expertise you get at Alpine Shop makes it my top choice for outdoor gear shopping in Columbia.

I worked up my nerve and went into the store and asked if they would help me. A super nice young guy said he would be glad to help. He put air in the first tire and showed me exactly how to do it, and then he watched me put air in the second one to make sure I really knew how. He was so kind and didn't make me feel stupid. I should've gotten his name, but I just wasn't thinking. He even offered to help me load my bike back in the car. What a great store with awesome merchandise and wonderful employees! This is certainly not the first time I've been treated extremely well here.

What selfless, remarkable service. This bike shop and all their staff should be lauded--as this type of behavior is what makes the cycling community such a wonderful thing. Thank you, CycleX!

The owner Dan C. : Anthony, Jesse and Jill are wonderful people to deal with when you have to pick up your prescriptions. Sure, they are a small pharmacy, but they treat you like Family. They will answer any questions you have or they will print out any information you need on the medication you are taking. Dan is one of the most informative individuals I have ever met on pharmaceuticals and the correct dosages to take. If you are unsure on what to take after your Doctor has informed you. Everyone says pharmacies are just pharmacies. In my opinion. This place treats me like family and I will never change pharmacies. I have never had a single issue with anything in over 17+ years. I simply love the people that work here and could not ask for a better pharmacy to go to. Thank you guys for everything! You are a wonderful group of people.
