Large store with a good selection. Sportsman's Warehouse, in my opinion, is a discount Cabela's. They cater to the north valley outdoor enthusiast: hunting, fishing, shooting, camping, barbecuing, you'll find your items here. This store is fairly new and is located within North Valley Plaza in the building once occupied by Mervyn's. The plaza has a lot of free parking and is easy to access from both the Cohasset Road and East Avenue freeway exits. I enjoy coming here to stock up on pellets for my Traeger grill. Easily the lowest price in town here. There is always a good selection and a wide assortment of options. They seem to have sales often as well which makes shopping here all the more enticing. The staff have always been friendly and helpful, too. You won't get a true Cabela's experience here, but definitely come if you are in need of outdoor gear at a good price. read more

Services were so BAD, I went there to look at some Rangefinding Binocular for hunting season and I went up to one of the worker and he kind of ignore me and said someone will help you when they can. But he wasn't doing anything. So I went back to the glass case and waited for someone to come over and show me the Rangefinding Binocular, I stood there for over 20 minutes. And I look back over at the other counter and there were 4 workers laughing and not one of them asked if I needed any help. I never experience anything like this as a customer, because when a customer is waiting at a glass case I'm sure the customer would like to look at something. If there was a Zero Star I would have given it Zero. Hopefully upper management will look at this review and have a talk with the workers around the Hunting and gaming section. I was going to potentially buy a $1000 Rangefinding Binocular for hunting. But will order it online from Bass Pro. Date: August 8 2026 Time: 4:40 pm to 5:00pm read more

Wanted to buy a gun and go through the process, guy behind the counter was less than helpful and acted like he couldn't wait for me to go away and never come back so that is exactly what I am going to do, NEVER COME BACK. read more

Very limited stock on lead free bullets. I have been there 6-7 times in last 3 months and there supply hasn't gotten any better. This includes reloading bullets. Who ever orders doesn't realize that all of California hunting is with nontoxic bullets. They need to do better. I recommend yuba city. read more

Poor customer service. No acknowledgment, no thank you for coming in. I walked in, walked around, and walked out....nothing. What is wrong? read more

Just walked out if here... was there for 15min and didn't even get acknowledged.no tickets available either so it was not a ticket issue.. stood there checking out guns didn't even get a "hey we will be with you ... you're up next or nothing " at all by neither two guys.... I'll take my money somewhere else. read more

Slowest moving employees on planet earth. Rather sit around and talk than help people. If you have time to waist go ahead but if you have other places to be definitely don't go here. read more

Completely fouled up my gun registration. Big hassle. Also no mask enforcement. Sorry guys. Completely done with you. read more

For Firearm customers: Since these new laws have come into effect (7/1/2019), the customer service in the gun department has gone downhill in a big way. Of course I am aware they have no control of the new regulations and are merely "just doing their job," when enforcing them. THAT WOULD BE FINE. However, because a bunch of other customers (who are not me) have been yelling at the employees or treating them badly over the past two weeks, some of them took their frustrations out on me. Tim, the employee who helped me, was extremely slow the whole time and not apologetic about it. He was very agitated and annoyed at any questions I had. I had all of the correct information needed to make the purchase. Still, I was treated as if I was one of the rude customers. Also, several other employees were complaining about these types of customers while I was there trying to make the purchase. They were using profanity and visibly showing there anger. It doesn't bother me too much because I'm a guy but it's a family store too. Just seems wrong to me. I also dont know why it takes them so long to do things. I told Tim I would buy the firearm and showed him the documents within two minutes of meeting with him. I filled out the background info which maybe takes five minutes and then I paid for it which might take two minutes. But I was there for an hour and a half. How is that possible? I am very reluctant to pick up my firearm when my waiting period is up because I have no idea how I'll be treated. Especially when you spend several hundred dollars on something and you're treated like dirt. There are a few guys behind the gun counter who have literally the best customer service so it's truly shocking how some others can ruin this place of business. THIS WILL BE MY LAST PURCHASE AT THIS STORE. read more

The dollar store of plastic crap for TN's to buy pellet guns poor return policies, i hope and prey boosters come hunting and their neighbors like the outside of a marshmellow, too long in the bright orange red thing that makes meat edible on a big ugly stick. read more

Always find the workers very helpful and nice . With the federal ammo laws definitely a challenge getting ammo ,but just preplan a bit. read more

All around customer service is sub par here. I gave this place 3 tries before writing a review, and let's just say third time was NOT a charm. Only one or two of the men behind the gun counter are passionate and knowledgeable about the guns, while the rest try to pass off a gun without knowing basic specs about it. Girl behind the customer service counter was rude and snappy. Name started with a k. Then I wanted to buy a flashlight. I gave the hefty man my budget , and he had a belittling attitude cause I did not want to spend more than intended. His exact words were these are nice, but they are out of your price range. I get it, but I came to you with a budget. Instead of working with it, and helping me select something that was of good value, he was totally working against me. Way to close a sale ! read more

I'm in and out of here all the time. I've worked retail and understand the challenges very well. I'm treated very well and typically find whatever I'm after. I have found a few of the guys in the fishing department more than helpful, and the folks at the gun counter engaging.. I do appreciate you guys thank you read more

What's not to love about sportsman's? If they don't have it they'll get it for you. Always have had positive interactions. read more

So they sent me home for paperwork I didn't need because they did not ask. Then I have to wait 30 minutes for a pick up with two guys working in the back. Talked to the front desk, could care less. Place is horrible. read more

We went into this store to buy a gun and Tyler was rude and not at all helpful. this is not the first time we have had a problem with customer service in this store. They are not at all helpful when you need it and when you do finally get someone to help you, they are not very nice. Tyler in the gun department needs a serious attitude adjustment. We will be taking our money elsewhere in the future. read more

I came in for work shoes and was never waited on, yet the lady with the long brown hair, who was working the shoe department, was helping those around me. I was standing there with the shoe in my hand, that I wanted to try on. After she was done helping a customer, the lady just walked right by me and walked right outside! No, hey how can I help you? or I see you have a shoe in your hand ... what size are you looking for??? Nope, just walked right by me like I wasn't there!!! Wow!! What kind of customer service is that??? Yeah, Ill never come in here again!! read more

Best place to get any hunting/fishing/outdoor anything. The employees are amazing and the store is always so clean and nice!

Went in this morning excited to purchase my very first fire arm. Stood inline for 45 min patiently. Finally was called up and was greeted if that, by some employee with a seahawks hat who seemed to be in such a hurry. He was RUDE! I asked to see a particle fire arm, as he walked over to grab it i noticed he was shacking is head, i felt very discouraged. I shared with him what i was getting into for the first time and rudely i was shut down " you don't want to use this!" and immediately turned around and placed it back on the shelf. Not even a suggestion was given. He was moving so fast, talked very fast i couldn't get a word out to explain what i wanted to do. He was not helpful, rude, i felt rushed. I don't see myself going back at all for anything. My first experience was shut down. read more

1. They don't force you to wear a mask. Why are all these paranoid old people at an outdoors store during a pandemic? There's nothing so essential here you have to show up and complain about other people not protecting your fat body from another normal virus. 2. Who buys guns with registration and all that jazz? You're seriously asking for it if you're on that list. The people complaining about messed up gun registrations aren't very smart to begin with. 3. I don't need customer service harassment. All the sensitive souls who can't ask for help expect these poor young people on minimum wage to be mind readers? This place is great if you aren't piss poor protoplasm. If there are any real men left, they should enjoy shopping here. read more

My boyfriend and I went to the gun section to get more information on rifles. My boyfriend asked which gun was more reliable when comparing two guns and Brad proceeded to say "I don't know. Do some research." Any question we asked Brad he was very short, rude, and said "I don't know." Looks like Brad either hates his job or doesn't know what he's doing. Thanks for not helping us at all BRAD. read more

I only use their fishing and camping departments and I have never been let down. The staff is extremely knowledgeable on their product and tips for better fishing.. The older gentleman that runs the fishing dept. is extremely knowledgeable and the younger staff taught me how to use my new fish finder.. these guys are great! read more

Great place to find outdoor stuff. I found so many things I was interested to fishing to hunting. It does not beat bass pro shop though because they have everything. The guns were really expensive for being out dated. The sales associates are not enthusiastic to help a customer try and find what their looking for. They look dead and dried out!! The only smile I got was from the gentleman who was in the guns department. As we walked in not a hello or hey guys welcome we got nothing at all. There was a young girl just standing around talking to this elder woman I would give it maybe a 2 but not for the workers you guys need some workers who are energetic and ready to make sales. Not boring people who don't say shit. Last time I will be there with unfriendly workers read more

Drove from out of town today and when we got there to try on clothes the lady working in the menswear was very rude and disrespectful. Never had an issue with the customer service until now. read more

I'd love to give a great review of Sportsman's Warehouse but I've never been able to get them on the damn telephone every time I call it goes calling calling calling and then hangs up so no review from me read more

The experience would have 4 stars for the equipment available and 0 stars if another employee hadn't come in to assist at the end. The 1-star is essentially for the worst customer service I have had in a long time. I didn't get mad or raise my voice, but the cashier got incredibly defensive, raised their voice and would not help me find a reasonable solution. The tone and the fact they wouldn't try to help me was the worst. read more

Looks like they finally got some inventory in their hunting section. I was beginning to think that Sportsman's Warehouse was Going out of business. Nice to have a good well-stocked sporting goods store in town again. Don't have to drive all the way to that C store, or that BPS store read more

Went in to Sportsman's Warehouse in Chico tonight around 645pm. There were about a dozen shoppers inside the store not wearing masks. I went up front to customer service and mentioned that most people were not wearing masks in their store and the customer service employee said Sportsman's Warehouse policy does not require shoppers to wear masks and they will not refuse service to anyone. It really concerns me with a policy like that, if they even sanitize. Needless to say, if this company doesn't respect their customers, why should I continue shop there? read more

Great service the gentlemen provide at the gun counter. I've been coming here a lot over the past year. Eli, specifically is awesome and great. There was an error with a shotgun I purchased and everyone there were polite and helped me out smoothly. John made sure to keep in contact and update me on the situation. They also post their ammo shipment on Facebook to help their customers. Couldn't say anything bad about their customer service. read more

Purchased online some lead shot. Went to local store to pick it up. Staff was very very slow and somewhat indifferent to me. Got tired of waiting for a "can I help you" or "are you waiting for something" and left after 25 minutes of waiting. Will have to go back again and try to get the item I paid for already that the store has in their possession. read more

I really love Sportsmans warehouse and I spend a lot of money there. I really like all of the employees who are very nice and helpful, a very small town feel. The other day I went in to pick up a shotgun I bought. 2 of the employees were wearing their masks on their chin. When 1 approached me I mentioned the mask thing and he immediately apologized and put in on correctly. As I looked around I saw 10 people that weren't wearing masks and a few with their nose out. I felt very uncomfortable. I firmly believe in the 2nd amendment but value education and maturity. I think it is unthinkable that there is no mask policy. This is a prime example of why the US has the worst infection rate in the entire world. The managers should be fired for their lack of responsibility. I spend thousands at this store, but will have to rethink about my safety. read more

Customer service was extremely lacking the hip-hop music blaring over the speakers if this was not the only place to find decent reloading supplies I wouldn't set foot in this place read more

I really like Sportsman's I think they offer a great variety of some really awesome stuff... but I don't like the way that the employees treat the customers for the most part. I know people who have also told me that they had similar experience when they visited Sportsman's Warehouse and from what I hear and based on my own experiences-it's not so good. they treat everybody like they are there with bad intentions and to be honest to make you feel like you're a piece of shit or something ... they follow you around staring at you acting like you're going to steal something and it's very rude. I do not steal- never have- never will. I do not like to be treated as if I'm a thief. I think they need to be a little more trusting of their customers and they will find customers to be more loyal and but more stuff because they feel comfortable. read more

Gun department needs some serious lessons in customer service. Yesterday when I went in after the 10 day waiting period I waited over an hour being passed off from one person to the next and was ultimately ignored while other customers were helped. In frustration I finally left the store without the gun. I received a call an hour later asking me to please come back for the gun which I did but still no apology for the wait. I understand that buying a gun is laborious in Calif. and there are multiple steps. I get that. But guys, communicate with the customer instead of walking away to service other customers and leaving me with no explanation on who or what is next. At least acknowledge that I am there. I am looking at also purchasing a handgun. I will not buy at Sportsmans Warehouse. read more

Terrible customer service. Stood at the gun counter for 45 minutes without even being acknowledged while two employees were laughing and chatting with one customer. Also tried to return a brand new unopened item and they refused to return it because "they have too many in stock right now" -not really the customers fault. Rude associates. Guy who works behind the knife counter is cool. Everyone else sucks read more

I was visiting family, and heard good raves about this store. I was wanting to buy hunting gear, and was very disappointed in the service here!! I guess being a latino, means that I need to be discriminated against! I was looking at the guns, for almost 30 minutes and was ignored! The guy behind the counter, didn't even bother to ask if I needed help. A man, that came up to the counter after me, told the guy that I was there before him. The man told him that I wasn't, and the man told him, yes he was and the guy walked past me and asked another man on the other side of me if he needed help. That man also told him that I was there first, and then he asked me if I needed help but my family came and I just left. read more

Great business great staff at the gun counter. Prices were good pre covid. Hopefully we will go back to that

In the last 4-5 years that I have been going to the Chico location there have not been many employees I feel have offered exemplary customer support, except Rick. That man is one of the nicest, most helpful, and genuine employees I have ever come across! It's not often when I ask a question that he doesn't know the answer to, but on the off chance he doesn't know, he'll find someone that does. He is very well informed on what is in-stock, where to find it and if there are any deals going on. I get a feeling from most of the employees that it is quite literally just a job and that they don't put any effort into making the customer feel satisfied when they leave. With Rick I leave with a smile and a sense that he did everything he could to make my experience the best that it could be. I look forward to buying anything firearm related knowing that he'll be there to help me out. I can not say enough good things about Rick from sporting goods and his excellent customer service. read more

Friendly knowledgeable staff. If your buying a gun or ammo expect to wait in line for awhile.

Bought a knife for Father's day and was helped by a very friendly and knowledgeable employee Austin. I appreciate someone who really cares about the customer and takes the time to answer questions. Great employee. Thank you read more
