    Default 5280 Gunz 'N Gearz

    Tomorrow (Saturday June 18) from 10AM-1PM 5280 Armory (5420 Marshall Street Unit A, Arvada, CO) is having a huge event featuring Guns, cars and more! Manufacturers like SigArms, ADCOR, EOTech, and FN will be there showing off their product and the store will also be open. I'll be there to check out some of the stuff they've got and to hang out with the owners Matt and Gina- perhaps the coolest gun store owners I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Should be fun and there should be some cool stuff to check out.

    Wow. A far cry from the days when you had to open a portal to another dimension to be able to even catch them when they're open. I may just stop by!

    back over the past few years though, there hours were far from consistent.

    I personally have had a good experience there, but there are some people on here who have had terrible experiences, so I don't think I would shop there again..

    I have had nothing but good experiences purchasing from these guys. They have been great over the phone saving me a trip down there. I may bring the car down tomorrow.

    have never understood businesses like this that close at 5--people with regular jobs (any maybe money to spend) can't stop in after work on the way home, etc.

    If that's the case maybe they should hire people that are more like them...the guys behind the counter have been total a-holes every time I've been there. I gave them a few chances, now I won't go back. Also, do they still charge extra for using a CC?

    They still have the credit card thing, which is understandable, but I hate it, even though I use debit or cash every time anyways.

    I tend to shop there a fair bit. They have been nothing but good to me in the past. At one point called me after close, to let me buy my gun after my back round check finished.

    There prices aren't the best, and it seems like a place where you have to earn good treatment, which is crappy, but, once you get it, I like it. As to the guys behind the counter, at least most of them know their stuff, sadly this can be a rare commodity at gun stores.

    I think this is funny, as a general rule, as "gun store guys" tend to treat the public like idiots, but they are far from gods generally, why just today I had to remind a store they had HK style sights mounted backwards on a display gun. <different store


    All in all, I like it, not totally perfect, but find me a perfect gun store.
