We originally came for binoculars and left with everything else, from clearance rain coats, to dog toys, to a hunting scope. 2-3 employees we worked with were incredible, including Ghana at the check out, and the gentleman in the archery/optics section. We however did not enjoy the man at the credit card booth who was rude when I said we were all set. He pushed the envelope further and my sister even told him my dad had the card (he was present) and the ma did not relent. He then walked behind us and was almost grunting about how we're not saving money by not Talking to him. That made me Incredibly uncomfortable.

I had been looking for some 25 caliber ammo for some time. I called many gun stores and stopped by…read moreseveral. No luck. I went on line and saw a site for 508 Guns & Ammo. I called and was delighted they had the caliber I was looking to purchase. Especially happy when I realized they were located in the next town to mine. Very impressed. Service was excellent, fast, friendly and knowledgeable. Can't ask for anything more.

508 is a tiny gun shop in Walpole with easy parking out front. I've bought a couple of guns here…read more Despite the tiny space, they actually have a good selection of handguns, rifles and shotguns, and actually a quite interesting selection too. A more modest selection of ammo. They are owned and operated by a husband and wife, who seem to be the only employees. They are very friendly and willing to chat and show you guns. Although sometimes there are 3 or 4 customers at a time, so they have to flit back and forth. The wife usually handles the ATF Form 4473 paperwork (which is largely via a computer you use to enter your information). Prices aren't rock bottom, but I still recommend 508 because of their fine service. It is nice to finally find a gun shop where all the employees are happy to see and serve you.

We LOVE Gary Wood and the folks at Belmont Wheelworks. We met when my son (who has Cerebral Palsy…read morefrom a stroke in utero) was in his first bike race-- Gary helped us adjust our bike before the race. My son bit the bug on bicycling and when he was ready for a new bike, Gary helped us find the perfect bike, making some accessibility modifications like switching the brake sides to favor my son's stronger side, etc. I got my Stumpjumper here 20 years ago and Belmont Wheelworks keeps on delivering because of the people!

Here's a collection of my terrible experiences at Wheel Works:…read more Story #1: Took a bike in to get an insurance write up for estimated cost of repair/replacement (my biked was pretty much totaled). They said the estimated time for this would be around 5 days. After 10 days of them not contacting me, I called them. They said the write up was ready so I went to shop only for them to tell me it is not ready and to come back in a couple days. When I went back, the person who did the write up lost the paper and we had to go back AGAIN for a new paper. A 5 day simple write up turned into a 3 week back and fourth with this shop (and 3 weeks with no bike which is my main form of transportation). Story #2: I asked for 2 tubes for my bike and they gave me 2 different sized tubes BOTH OF WHICH WERE NOT THE CORRECT TUBE. Story #3: I asked for a tube for my bike and I gave them the model (which they sold to me). The person asked me what size it is which I forgot. So he replied "well I don't know that bike go figure that out yourself" (while he was at a functioning computer in which he could have looked it up for me). Story #4: I also had a kick stand repair after it fell off (my bike has a specialize built in kickstand) and it fell off again after 2 rides.

What an amazing experience from start to finish. Mike is patient and thorough and makes the firearm…read morelearning experience fun and relaxed for everyone that attended. He has great communication skills, was open to questions and is just a genuinely good and honest person. You'll learn everything you need to know with this course, even if you have no experience with firearms. Firearms can be frightening, but Mike has a way of calming you down to understand that when the proper procedures and safety precautions are followed, they can be handled safely. Mike also shows you tips and skills that may help you in real life scenarios, especially some that could potenially save your life. I'm grateful that I took my course here. Highly recommend Mass Firearm Safety Training for your Massachusetts License to Carry.

The…read morestore itself is awesome and caters more to the tactical/home defense side as apposed to the hunting/sporting side. If your looking for all the cool shit they probably have it. The prices are good and they will work with you on that as well. Ended up getting my tacops for $50 less than what four seasons is charging which if you know anything about four seasons it's hard to do. The staff there were really cool and patient with me even though I was being an indecisive pain in the ass. I will definitely be going there again and saving myself the trip all the way to Woburn for four seasons. FYI. I came here a while back and it has the same name but completely different store. It use to be owned by an old German guy who was cool and had a pretty cool store. It's now owned by his daughter and ran by the old owner of zero hour and I really like what they did with the place. Also the old German guy is still there in an urn above one of the counters lol I don't know why but I think that's awesome.

Love Gartman. Ammo when nobody else does during the shortage, and they know they can charge more…read more It's marked up due to the market, but they're not price gouging like other places.

I got interested in archery kind of by accident. When I was in middle school, we had a…read moreShakespearean festival, which included archery among other things. The bows they had were these cheap compounds (with the wheels) intended for children... which in fairness, we were. Well that, and one step up is five times the cost. At some point many years after, I found this place. I was excited to try my hands at archery once again. Even though this place is a little out of the way, I still venture out here when I want to have a go of being a sort of Robin Hood, only one who is not nearly as good of a shot. I. Cost - Their rates are extremely reasonable for what you get. Shooting on the range is $12/hour if you bring your own equipment, and only $14 to borrow theirs. This cost includes instruction too! This is not a private lesson, but they will help you along the way with stance, aim, draw, and other such basics. II. Staff - their staff are some of the nicest, most patient people I have met! Whether they are telling you the 1st time or 101st time to bring your hand to your ear, they are just as patient and calm. Also, during my time shooting, adjusting the draw weight (on the compound) as well as the sight to my ideal levels was a non issue. III. Range - The range is pretty nice! It is well lit, fairly spacious, and they have targets at two different distances, although, I couldn't tell you what they are. I can however tell that the shorter distance is great for beginners... not so far that it becomes discouraging, but close enough that it is fairly challenging. When you are shooting, do be careful of obstacles like pipes or columns... but if you stay in your lane, you should be fine. IV. Equipment - Out of the bows you are able to rent there are recurves (think Robin Hood) and Compound bows (with wheels). I am fond of the latter, but must say the Genesis bow (make of compound) is not my favorite thing in the world. The reason for this is (don't quote me on this) compounds have a let off in weight when fully drawn. The Genesis bows do not (at least not a very significant one). I will not penalize this place for that because these are fairly cheap (~$100), durable, easily adjustable, and according to online markets a great entry level bow for people of all ages. When it comes to equipment, think of it in parallel with bowling . If you are just there to bowl for a bit of fun, you have entry level equipment (balls, shoes) that are durable, and good for those who don't take the sport too seriously. Same thing here, the bows and arm-guards aren't spectacular, and there is no mechanical release provided. If you come to shoot for an hour for fun, you probably don't care that much. As for me, I'd like to keep it casual for now... but even if I end up taking archery more seriously, I will not hesitate at returning to this place to practice!
