    Do not waste your time driving to this place. There is almost nothing in the shop other than maybe some live bait

    I've bought about six firearms from Sportsman's Warehouse along with over 5,000 rounds of ammo, and…read moreI keep coming back mainly because of their pricing. They consistently have some of the best deals in town on both guns and ammo, which is hard to beat. Their website is another big advantage. It's easily one of the best compared to other local shops. It shows what's in stock, and if something isn't available at your location, it tells you where you can find it. That level of transparency makes shopping a lot easier and saves time. I also like that this location is close to me, and I haven't had any issues with purchases or the overall buying process. That said, the experience at the gun counter can be inconsistent. Some employees are solid, but others either come off as overly cocky or seem to lack basic firearm knowledge. I'm not there for stories or to hear about someone's background, I just want a smooth, professional experience when buying a firearm. One experience that stood out was when I purchased a .22 LR AR-style rifle for plinking. The employee assisting me seemed unsure about basic handling. There were moments that didn't inspire confidence when it came to safely handling and operating the firearm. I also witnessed a similar situation involving another employee who didn't appear confident clearing a shotgun. Situations like that are concerning, especially in a setting where safety should be the top priority. I understand that people have to learn somewhere, and I respect that, but when it comes to working behind a gun counter, there should already be a strong foundation of knowledge and safety awareness. Overall, this location is great for pricing, convenience, and their website. If they improved consistency in staff training and professionalism at the gun counter, this would easily be one of the best places to shop.

    I have the biggest patience ever but too many times with this location! I'm a very kind person but…read moretoday I called that cashier guy by the gun counter an AssHoLe. He pushed my button! I was in line for ammo and he even asked, Oh you want ammo and I said yes. Went to wait two aisles down and he sees me waiting and he's finishing up with his customer. The customer left for a few mins and I thought he still is fishing up but nope. A new customer comes up for ammo and he helped him. I been waiting for him for a while finishing up with the first customer but for him to help another customer after that knowing that I was waiting for him, AH. I was so upset but then I see two staffs coming from the back and then one went to the aisle in front of me so I went around and asked in a rude way. Poor guy had to hear me say all this BS: he apologized but then I didn't care but wanted to just get the hell out of that dam place! I'm so mad I don't even want to give a star!

    First timer here! Walked in and thought everything was good, it's all organized and clean but then…read moreas I sat down to use my phone I did overhear some of the employees poking fun at some people once they finished a call which felt super unprofessional. I didn't bother exploring some more as I did not feel comfortable and I just left.

    As a guy shopping isn't really on my high priority list. But when we actually have to shop we want…read moreit simple and easy to do minus all the extras. Purchase 3 pairs online... one was coming from Texas one out of Ceres and the last from Sacramento. I'm receiving notification of where my packages are at. Now I get notified that one pair has been delivered (I have them sent to the WSS on hammer ln bc it closer to my work) next day I receive another saying another pair has been delivered. I'm waiting for the last one from Texas , so I call to confirm that both shoes are in the store. WSS employee answers the phone greets me but I could understand him bc he spoke super fast so it sounded like mumbling. I told him I wanted to confirm that my shoe were there bc I was notified that it was. He then gets his manager, I wanted to confirm my shoe were in... this dude says " You know what had happen was fedex dropped them off- and probably picked them back up thinking it was an out going package, and they just come and go we don't communicate with them too often." WAIT TF YOU MEAN YA DONT COMMUNICATE WITH YA VENDORS WHO HAVE TO SCAN EACH PACKAGE WHEN RECEIVING AND SHIPPING THEM OUT AND HAVE TO SIGN FOR THEM???? Assuming WSS would help by tracking my package THAT WAS ALREADY IN THE STORE WAIT TO BE PICKED UP BY THE CUSTOMER... they send to contact fedex ground to find out where it's at! MY PACKAGE WAS SIGNED BY A CAMILA OBVIOUSLY THAT ISNT ME!!!! Sounds like some shady stuff going on with WSS EMPLOYEES AND FEDEX GROUND!!! Thinking it was going to be a quick come up ! So just be careful f&cking with WSS . I only received 2 pairs out of 3 that I purchased. And whenever confronted with question about the last pair they confuse about what I'm asking like I'm speaking another language????? Still waiting on the pair or my f@cking refund!!!!!!! Jeopardy song!!!!
