I decided to take the drive up to Loveland this morning to take a look at Jensen Arms. I'm really infatuated with the DSA FAL's and Jensen said that they had a few in stock. Loveland is not in the Denver area but I thought I'd make the drive anyway and I think it was well worth the trip (even without any money).

It took me an hour to get to Loveland. You just hop on the I-25 and stay on it until you get to Loveland. You head west after getting off the freeway and turn right (north) on Lincoln. Up Lincoln a ways and turn left (west) on Fourth. Its right there on your left (south side of the road).

Jensen was smaller than I expected but the amount of cool stuff they have in there was great. The shop is well organized, clean, and very nice. The help in Jensen was great too. They talked to me right away and were very knowledgeable about their products. I chatted with one of the guys about the FAL for several minutes.

I was surprised to find some great stuff that you don't usually find at most shops. Jensen had all kinds of great politically incorrect gear/guns. I saw guns like the Cetme, Kahr Thomson Gun, AK's, FAL's, and lots of other evil black rifles. They have a great stock of optics, Royal Robbins clothes, surplus ammo and a whole rack of mags for your rifle (AR, AK, FAL). I guess they were missing reloading stuff but the shop is so full as it is that they couldn't fit it in there if they wanted.

Jensen is well worth the drive to go up and take a look at the shop. I'd recommend calling beforehand if you're looking for something specific though. It would not be fun to make the drive for nothing.

Mr. Dove, I live about 4 blocks west of Jensens. It's where I buy all of my guns and gear. You're right, it is a great place.

All of my dealings with Jensens have been 1st rate.

My wife hates the place. Maybe because I can't leave without spending a few hundred $$$. :lol:

Great place and great prices. The guys that work there are very friendly and helpful. Lots of cool stuff. Spent a bunch of money in that place and always walk away a very happy customer. :D :D :D :D :D

I drive down to Jensens from Cheyenne all the time. I absolutely love the place!

They have the absolute BEST price on Black Hills ammo... anywhere.

the best I've found in Colorado

+1 was up in Denver with some downtime and decided to run up and take a look. Only one or two ARs on hand, but they did have a two-page waiting list for Bushy and RRA (many on order, few delivered). Quite a few FALs, including a couple recievers but only a handful of the AK family.

Prices were good, selection of accessories and ammo pretty broad. (M855 for $18?/1000, yeah there's tax but no waiting for UPS) Only problem I saw was being in the middle of town, quite a few folks stopping by to fondle the merch and buy nothing (I admire the staff's patience, they were all helping folks politely and promptly). That and it felt weird walking around back to the parking area with a long cardboard box :D

I talk about this place all of the time. They are great and are even worth the drive from Castle Rock. You do not get a lot of BS and know that you are not getting ripped off - whatever you purchase. I have purchased and STI .45, a Springfield .45 Operator, a Loaded M1A, a SOCOM 16 M1A and a Model 60 S&W .357. I have yet to find one of these priced lower anywhere in the state and have not found anything on the internet cheaper unless I had a FFL.

They are knowledgeable and I always find accessories when I go up to look. Mr Jensen knows his scopes. When I bought my IOR scope, he gave me a 30+ min. lesson on mil-dot scopes.

They are all very helpful and will spend time with you so long as you do not show up on Saturday in the late morning. There are usually about 20+ people in the store and they are often slammed with background checks. They do move quite a lot of hardware.

As I said, I drive up from Castle Rock and never regret it. If you live near Loveland - or are passing buy - you owe it to yourself to stop by and see this store. Anytime I am within 30 miles, I will swing by and look around. My favorite gun store.

A+

I'll give Jensens a bump to the top. Been shopping with them for years now and still love the place. Going there to dump a load of money tonight!

About 2hrs from me. I've never been there, but I'd heard about it from a few other people too.

Always helpful and have a pretty nice selection (esp. if you're into evil black guns). They're not the place to go if you want to see a bunch of high-end shotguns, and their prices aren't the absolute best, but they're very competitive. I've even heard that they'll sometimes give you a break on transfers if you're buying other items from them. Their surplus ammo prices are usually better than gun show pricing, and they usually have good stock on-hand. Some of the most knowlegable people I've dealt with, and willing to go the extra mile.

+100 for Jensen's!

Oh yeah, and there's that lunch joint right next door with burgers to die for!

I love Jensen's.
If you want new pistols, anything EBR or surplus ammo (actually new ammo too), they are the best place to go
they probably have 500 holsters on the wall.
They even have surpressors and SBR's now and are a class 3 dealer.
great place.

lots of surplus ammo.

They have great prices on CZ-75 in .22 and on Tokarov pistols! Got one of each.

You'll find Bobcat MP5 clones and hi-cap Ruger mags for a decent price too.

Not the place to go to look for Perazzi shotguns, though. Definitely non-PC and proud of it!

If I had to find fault, it would be with their NFA sales policy. I was interested in getting an Outback II which they had in stock at the time. They wanted full list price (which is fine) but also wanted to charge me $50 for doing the transfer. There's enough margin in Gemtech's line-up for NFA dealers to be compensated for the paperwork & storage (I've seen the dealer price sheet). Jensen is the first I've heard of to charge for transfers on stuff they sell.

I can't seem to stay away from this place :oops:

Went down today and grabbed some ammo, refunded a stripper clip adapter since I decided to get LULA. Twice now they have not even blinked about doing a refund. - Thats good.

with all due respect, I shouldn't have to go searching for it.

store location is on the main page
'contact' on the main page is an email link.

IMHO, store hours should be with the location and a phone number and/or other contact info.

Our website is under www.Jensenarms.com

We should be open in the new store on July 24th, Monday.

We will continue to run in our old store until July 22nd

YEA!!!!

I was stationed at DM AFB in Tucson AZ back in the late 70's. There was place on the North end of town called Jenson's Custom Ammo & Guns and they were one of the biggest, and best gun stores I've ever seen. For the most part, every member of their staff was knowledgible and more than willing to help with any questions.

Just wandering if you guys are any relation to that shop? I bought my first AR-15 from them, and several other guns as well.

Sorry, no relation, other than we are a fun! place to shop

Well, I'll try to make a trip up anyway. :mrgreen:

I just wanted to mention that the Italian place just west of Jensen's (Monoco Trattoria) is just excellent and has a pretty darn good lunch deal
well worth it.

the NY Deli to the west across the street is awesome too.

food and guns, what could be better?

speaking of which, we need to get together a group MC ride up there!

What are you ridin?

HD XL1200

Good job, I just picked up a 03 FLHT

YEA TEAM!!!

I just wanted to mention a HUGE thank you to the guys and gals up at Jensen Arms. I walked in last week as a newbie to the AR-15 scene and the entire staff was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and more importantly, very patient as I sorted through the various options for what the best rifle would be for my wife and I to shoot together. We finally walked out with a 16" 1:8 floating barrel RRA with an EOTech sight. I fell in love with it when I got a chance to shoot it for the first time last weekend and promptly stopped in again to get another case of ammo. My wife calls it "hers" even though she can't shoot it yet (pregnant) but she at least graciously "allows" me to shoot it for her.

My wife apologizes for the drool she left on the counter after seeing your stock of firearms. I'll keep her in the car next time. :mrgreen:

Thank you Jensen Arms!
(Boulder, CO)

Went to the shoot up north today and then we stopped in at Jensens. Very nice folks and a very nice selection to peruse. I would recommend them to anyone that is up that way.

+1 for Jensens

Hrm, the few times I've contacted them over the phone they've been, short with me for no particular reason. I'm VERY curteous and respectful too.

The folks I've spoken to seem like "clerks" - apathetic and un motivated. Like I'm wasting their time. I've contacted them about 4 times total.

And why would you limit someone from purchasing more than 1k of surp ammo?

"why would you limit someone from purchasing more than 1k of surp ammo"

Maybe so they won't have to seem like jerks when they tell someone else that it is all gone
