Thanks. No problem on the name part, happens all the time.
I'll have to check this place out. It's good for us COS residents to have more firearm store competition.
Maybe now I can buy a gun from someplace in my area that's doesn't mark up their firearms 30% more than the norm going prices.
Thanks,

I stopped by a couple of weeks ago. I had heard about it and wanted to check it out.
I'm very impressed. I was looking for a Magpul RVG (the vertical one) I asked Bryan about them and he said he was sold out, but would order them in. Very nice and friendly and overall a pleasant experience chatting with him about a number of things, including long range rifle, about which I know very little.
Stopped by yesterday to see if they had them and he had several of the AFG's (angled ones) in stock. We laughed a bit about me not making it clear what I wanted and he got on the phone and ordered one of what I was looking for in right then and there. I also got a Magpul MS2 sling.
If he is willing to go the extra mile for a $25 part, he will get my business for all of my more expensive needs.
Overall, I am very impressed and will be giving them all my business in the future.

Also stopped in a few days ago, had to drive around the block twice but it was worth the effort.
I'm terrible with names, but the fellow who was working there was the most cheerful and upbeat that I've ever seen working at a gunstore. And it did not seem shiny-happy-hopey-changey-fake either.
Only picked up a pistol mag, didn't trust my self control to check prices on any guns.

I have to go to the Springs today and am going to try to stop by Bravo, if timing works out.
Looking to trade my T/C Encore for a bolt action .308.
Bravo Arms is the go to shop in and around CO Springs. The people that work there are great guys. They never talk down to you and are always willing to help you or learn from you. They have great prices and a great selection. They truly do compete with anyone. I just bought a Glock 30SF frame from them and got a great price. This store is going to make the other store(s) have better customer service and prices.
If I had to give them a grade A+ all the way
Wow. I stopped by Bravo Arms this morning, just to get a feel and see if what other people here are saying is true.
It is.
Bryan was friendly, offered a greeting as soon as I hit the bottom step.
Very knowledgable and helpful. Answered all my questions with a smile, had a good conversation about guns and other issues.
Met a couple of other guys while there.
A VERY pleasant surprise especially when compared to the prices and attitude of SS&S.
Bravo Arms can plan on getting my business.
I agree with posts above, great customer service and a good prices on selection of specific rifles and pistols. Even if I have to specialty order, I will go here before I go to SS or Sportsmans again.
For those of you who wish to visit, the store is actually a house directly east of the RV retailer on the NE corner of Union and Pikes Peak. I drove by it twice!
Big +1 to Bravo Arms. I've been in there five or six times now. Once for a firearm repair, several times for ammo, and a few times for just "looking around". It really is the "place to be" in Colorado Springs if you're looking for something. The guys are always approachable and willing to help. They'll drop what they are doing to help you.
Thanks Tim, Brian, and whomever else works there.
I'll be back, definitely.
