Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Note no response from Kellyjoe. Newbie dropped a bomb on his first post. No reason, no explanation. Looks like another wonderful troll has joined the ranks. Personally, I think new people should make an effort to be productive and informative for their first posts, instead of building their rep on trash talk.
5280 Armory
Went there this past weekend for the first time ever looking for .223 PMC. They were sold out of the 1000rd boxes so I picked up some 7.62x39 instead. Everyone I spoke to was very nice and polite. Odd hours of operation but I will go back there in the future
Just got back from there, haven't been for many months. Half the store is roped off, blocked off. due to having to store all of the long guns that have sold but not passed bg check I guess. Line outside, think I got the last 10 Pmags they had. 2 ARs on the shelf when I walked in, when I left both were gone. Everybody is looking for the same thing, AR parts/accessories, 223/5.56 ammo.
I was in there earlier today too hoping to pick up the rifle I paid for on 12/23. According to the CBI Facebook page they're working on checks from 12/24, but 5280 is saying they don't have checks from 12/21 yet. My guess is that they just haven't caught up yet.Originally Posted by sneakerd
I hated to have walked out of the shop empty handed today, but aside of some 7.62x39 ammo they didn't have anything I really want. No PMAGs in stock either.

Was in there the saturday before christmas, they still had Pmags then so I picked up a couple. At a more than fair price these days. The store was roped off, and they had about 6 AR's left. I will go back since they were still selling the pmags at a resonable price. I also saw they would have some colt's in today. First come first serve,
My guess would be to re-price EVERYTHING before it all sells out at it's current sticker price. If you get my drift...
Crawled out from under my rock.
MY FEEDBACK
I purchased my first AR-15 from 5280 years ago and I have directed many people there to do the same but I must admit the past year or so every time I go in there I tell myself I doubt I will be back but I keep on going back, even today I was in there. I feel like that High School girl with low self-esteem that keeps on getting smacked around by her boyfriend and keeps on coming back for more.
I went there for the first time last week. Some folks were nice but the owners (I think it's a couple) seemed kinda short.
The woman even told one of the guys to move on to someone else while he was helping someone. Apparently, he was spending too much time with them and she said it loud enough for them to hear her.
Prices were definitely inflated on mags too...although they seem to have the cheapest "inflated" prices on PMags.
They actually had more rifles in stock, but again, I think that's due to some of their prices.
I've been there a couple of times, and have purchased several firearms from them (paid cash). The people that I've dealt with there were friendly and helpful. I haven't been there for a while, but they used to have a pretty good selection, and I like the fact they also stock some NFA items. My only gripe is that they are on the other side of town from me.
Bought 2 more rifles from them in January, took 2 buddies in that each have bought rifles since then as well. Everytime they are nice and take the time to make sure your questions are answered. It feels like the "shop down the street". I have never really considered them my go to ammo store even before the panic, but less now by far.
