USA Liberty Arms FT Collins

[Big John]

My son went in there a couple of weeks ago looking for a very specific pistol. The kid helping him tried to talk him into several other different models because he did not have the Gen4 in stock. Was very patronizing telling my son he would be better off with whatever he was trying to sell him. He has actually shot the one he was trying to buy, and knew that's what he wanted, and, I realize he doesn't have a lot of patience for situations like this, but he said he felt like he was talking to a used car salesman that doesn't have the model you're looking for. He won't go back. It's been a couple of years since I've been in there, and was always treated well, but grey hair and knowledge will usually get that reaction.

Almost all of the "good" sales people from USA Liberty (and some management) are now working at the store at the Liberty Firearms Institute range. They're prices are very competitive and they seem to have a large selection of guns. I've purchased a couple guns from them and they treated me very well. They've 'earned' my business. LFI is my go to LGS now.

^^^ agree with Big John. USALA used to be my go to, but everyone I liked left with the whole shooting range divorce fall-out and it's just never been the same. Doesn't help that I could never stand the cocky little skinny prick David that owned USALA before he got kicked out, but a deal is a deal. Don't like the price on something? Ask to price match. I've had them call USALA to check pricing and if it's in stock and in state, guess what, price matched.

David always treated me right and no BS. With that said I know what I want and don't go in and BS and waste peoples time. I put in 5 years behind a gun shop counter. Most people wanna come in and tell you about there shtf fantasy or there time in the sand box or nam or there secret seal sniper mission's. Then you hand them an AR and they dont have a clue how to work it.

Recently moved back to the Fort, these guys have been great with good stock on hand (except ammo) would highly recommend.

I used both USA Liberty Arms and Liberty Firearms Institute for transfers and I have purchased from both of them over the years. However, the last time I used LFI they had raised the total transfer price to $50. Screw that! They are also more expensive on their products than other stores. They do have a professional staff and some have been there for many years.
USA does have a high employee turnover and some of the younger ones just can’t shut up. One of the idiots nearly queered a deal I had worked out. Generally I have found USA to be less expensive than LFI on most items.

My $0.02

That $50 is close to new norm unless you have a buddy with an FFL.
I recently did some searching and cheapest i found was $40 with most others between $40-50.
I?ve passed on more than one seemingly deal here because once you add $50 to the price it?s not much of a deal.

The last few time I have stopped in the young new employees pissed me off so much with there shitty arrogant attitudes I won't be stopping in much unless I absolutely need something now. They have raised there prices on most stuff to a no go for me. Really sucks I liked there store a lot and have spent tons of money there over the years.

You introduced me to this place several years ago. It was a cool store with a cool vibe and some decent inventory and prices. I was up there recently and everything I just said doesn?t apply anymore. It?s a shame for you guys up north that what once was a pretty decent store now seems to have gone downhill.
