Kodiak Firearms Colorado Springs

[5280Shooter]

This place used to be my go to for transfers and accessories. Over, over the course of 2019, I have watched it go from one of the best gun shops, to, in my opinion, the worst in town. I cannot recommend them to anyone.

What started as $10 ship in transfers is now $100. Yes, $100 for a ship in transfer. While I was there last, I overheard an employee (possibly owner?) talking about how his "sick and tired of people coming in to look at guns, then lose the sale to an online dealer with a better price. This may sound crazy to me, but if you are losing a price battle, maybe adjust your business model and pricing?

I used to be in there so frequently that the staff knew my name, and didn't have to ask "does your driver's license have your current address?" They seem to have gotten rid of those helpful people, and now primary staff guys that I have not had a great customer service experience with.

Additionally, the last time I was in there, they did not have much in stock. What used to walls filled with more interesting guns now primarily looks like its hunting focused (wooden stocks). ]

On top of all of this, they closed for 2+ weeks recently with no communication other than a sign on their door, which you have to jump a chain to read. Even their site redirected to some other store, and no answer from phones.

I have a few things that I have paid them for that they are waiting to get in stock, but after that, it's good riddance to Kodiak for me.
