new NO CO shop

[Great-Kazoo]

Noticed the OPEN sign on the way out of local restaurant in Windsor. Bear Arms 1292 Main st Windsor behind the main St. Grill past checker/Oreily auto parts north side of main street. Met Gary and his wife clean shop good prices AND got a card for 1 free FFL Transfer! Of course it is Not valid on in stock store items. check them out.

how much for transfers for us who didnt get a free transfer card? What kind of guns?

the Free Transfer is on their business card. I didn't ask what the cost was, I would say competitive as they are running a business. give them a call or stop by. if you're in the 'hood give me a shout

I stopped by there while they were still unloading store stock. Very nice people. Hopefully they will get some .308 surplus at a decent price.

How would you describe this gunstore? Old man hunting store or Mall Ninja Jensens type store?

black rifles, parts acc, bolt action etc. stop in and look for yourself. it's an option for those looking for other shops. in NO. considering there are what 2-3 non chain stores, this is a welcome addition.

Here are the non chain stores I know of in NoCo:

Rocky Mountain Shooters Supply, Fort Collins
Jensen Arms, Loveland
Bear Arms, Windsor
Elk Bomb Shooting Supply, Milliken
Active Arms, Fort Collins
Colorado Gun Works, Fort Collins

I won't EVER shop at Active Arms again. That guy that runs that place is just a blatant asshole for no reason and I refuse to give him my business. He makes the crew at Jensen's seem like Nordstrom's customer service by comparison.

Don't forget to add Jax to your list. I try to buy as much there before I go to any of the big name chains that funnel the profits out of state to corporate headquarters. They have lots of stuff and are quite helpful.

i bought a 642 at Jensesns yesterday. Great service, friendly, etc. Im not sure what everyone wants, but they treat me good.

I get along well with them but the fact is they are not known for warm, friendly customer service especially if you're asking n00b-ish questions. This thread isn't about Jensen's though, theres a whole thread in this section dedicated to Jensen's so let's stay on topic here. This is a thread to discuss Bear Arms in Windsor and I hope to get over there pretty soon so I can report back too. I'm excited there is another shop in my area though. This is always good for the consumer.

I didn't list Jax because i thought the criteria for a chain store was more than one. Well now there is three if you count the Farm and Ranch store. I may be wrong about the definition of a chain store though.

Well, when I think of chain store I think of a national company who's corporate office is across the nation. All the profits leave the state and don't help our economy other than bringing jobs but generally take those jobs from smaller ma and pa shops that were actually bringing more supply to the local economy and keeping the profits here to purchase other goods further helping the local economy. IMO several stores within the state = convenience. I frequent Jax before I visit the other large stores that offer similar products. That's just me.
