This will definitely be the first place I look for firearms/accessories. UPDATE: I have now purchased a few guns here and had some work done on another, and I have confirmed my initial impressions. The staff (basically the same two guys every time I go in) is very helpful and they did a really nice job repairing and cleaning a pistol for me.

This is a great gun shop. First time in. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. They took the time to show me numerous guns and explain the pros and cons of each. I was also very impressed with the variety of guns. Highly recommend checking this place out.

Had a great experience while looking for a new pistol. Excellent selection of models in stock. Staff were very friendly and highly knowledgeable. They went above and beyond to help me decide on what was right for me. Prices were in line with other shops in the area, and were reasonable. 100 % will be back in the future.

Not normally one to write reviews, but I can't say enough about Federal Firearms, especially as a first time buyer. Bruce was friendly and helpful to my girlfriend and I, and Hank the Tank (the store dog) was awesome! Thanks again for a great first buying experience; we will definitely be back.

Not Ally, but her father. Wife and I went today. First time purchasers. Had read all the great reviews and can say that this is the place to go if you are a first timer. Spent an hour and a half getting informed and shown what best fit our needs. Great, patient service. Listened to us, and provided us details on making sure we get the necessary training. Couldn't recommend more. Will be back in the future.

Called first thing this am to see if they were open, and the person was very nice, and pleasant on the phone. Stopped in today for the first time in 25 years, and was very happy with the selection and pricing. The people who work there go out of their way to make you feel welcomed. Thank you for all your help today. We will be back again soon.

Spent an hour and a half getting informed and shown what best fit our needs. Great, patient service. Listened to us, and provided us details on making sure we get the necessary training. Couldn't recommend more. Will be back in the future. An Update. 2 weeks ago we purchased our firearm. Part of the information we obtained at Federal was someone who could train us since we were new to weapons ownership. Couldn't be more pleased with their recommendation of Lambert Strayer from 472 Firearms Fundamentals. In the past two weeks, Lambert came to our home to train us and our two oldest daughters on weapons safety in the home, and had us to the range for range safety training, as well as instructing us in actually firing the weapon. Lambert, Steve, and Samantha from 472 have made all of us feel safe at the range while teaching us and answering all of our novice questions. Although my wife can't currently shoot due to an injury, she has been able to learn by watching the step by step hands on training, and she and my daughters love the fact that they can actually work with a female instructor. We feel comfortable with our purchase and our training. Can't say enough good things about Federal and 472.

This is the best store for everything you need to know about purchasing a firearm! We went there as first time buyers and spent well over an hour talking, getting tips and trying out different firearms to purchase. Every employee there was very kind, knowledgeable, helpful, PATIENT and respectful of our needs. I cannot say enough about this place and this is the only place I will patronize from now on for future purchases of firearms and ammo. Even the doggone dog is polite and kind!!! (And beautiful and well behaved!) Please give them a try-you won’t regret it!

Best place to go to for all firearms needs, these guys are great, very easy to talk to, they don't push you to buy, but will show you guns all day, very knowledgeable and sales are easy and painless. Anywhere else and just wasting your time. Federal is the best!!!!

You cannot go wrong with Federal Firearms. They are a 3rd generation family business. The staff there is beyond patient, the prices are great, and they treat you like family. Josh and Justin's knowledge was unmatched. Far beyond what you get at the box stores. Plus you could see Hank the shop dog.

I've had lots of good experiences here, But all that was is me buying a gun and leaving, well last gun I bought had a cracked barrel, took back to them about a week later (never fired the gun) tall guy dark hair guy was trying to not even take it said oh it's so hard to get through to manufacturer, I asked him to please try to help me out, so they took the gun, stopped back 3 weeks later he said he called and never heard anything from manufacturer, I took the gun home called the manufacturer and got right though and they emailed me a prepaid shipping ticked. It's a shame all they want to do is sell the guns and after that its like your bothering them. With all the internet buying you would think they would want to take care of the customer a little better. It sucks cause I thought Federal was different than the rest,they used to be, not anymore.👎

I have been going to this store for close to 5 years, purchased every single firearm I own from this store. The staff treats you like family, have answered every question I ever asked and always took their time to show me anything I wanted to look at. Ive bought everything from magazines to high end firearms here and will never go to another gun shop.

I always stop in to federal firearms, you never know what they're going to have. Things consistently changing. Everything you need, with fair prices. My mother and stepfather shopped here when I was a kid (I'm 36 now) and the place is still standing, they have to be doing something right.

This place has terrible customer service. I called to ask if they could fix the safety on a gun. They said to bring it over. I drive a half hour and they tell me that they are not working on guns right now because it's hunting season. When I asked why they didn't tell me that over the phone, the only response was, "You have nice day." When I first got there they asked me if my 410 was a .22 while in their hands and then they asked if they wanted the safety fixed or just removed. As if I want a shotgun with no safety. Why would I bother having it removed if it doesn't work anyhow?

I can't remember the last time I left a negative review but this one is justified. So disappointed with a visit here today. I called to ask about some shotshell reloading parts. I asked for a specific part (1-oz. MEC 502 bar). "Yes, we have one of those here." I took time off, drove over, went through all of the stock and they had every bar except a 1-oz. I thought maybe they put the part behind the counter for me and when I asked the person who took my call he walked over and said, "Here they are." When I explained to him what I asked for he actually argued with my about it! More than once! "No you didn't!" I get that they may not know about these parts or sell them often. You don't just ask for this particular part that way because they make about a dozen different ones and they are sized for different types of loads. If the guy says, "I misunderstood you, sorry, I don't know what those are," anything other than argue, I'm still looking around in the store for something to buy...I spoke with a manager / owner on the way out the door and he apologized. Horrible, horrible service. I have had gunsmithing done here, bought parts, ammunition, etc. I'll think twice now about heading back.

I’ve shopped at this place for a couple years now. Justin has always been decent. Other sales people are usually duds. Today I went in to buy a 45 ACP. The sales person, Mike, showed no interest in helping me find something. After I was able to press him to help me, I found a gun and filled out all the necessary paperwork. While I was standing there waiting for 45 minutes, 4 other people were approved ahead of me (but came in much later than me and filled their apps out after me). No one asked to help me or to try to resubmit my application or even call someone. They just kept going about their business helping others and not a care in the world about my time or frustration. Gun business must be booming because no one apparently want to work a little to take my money. Sorry Justin, I’m taking my $$ elsewhere. Good luck

An amazing selection of firearms, ammo and accessories. Seriously, they barely had enough room on their shelves and racks for all the firearms. The young man that helped me, Alex, is also a gunsmith and very knowledgeable, helpful and the kinda guy you'd go back to ask for advice. I highly recommend this gunshop!

My absolute go-to gun shop. Whether I’ve needed specialty firearms, optics, or just an every day carry, these guys have gone above and beyond to get what I need and always at a great price. Each member of the staff is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and customer focused. There hasn’t been a time that I’ve been in the shop (and I’ve been there a lot) that I haven’t witnessed at least one of the staff taking exceptional care to educate a customer on some particular subject matter. Even if there are 20 other customers in the room, they will make you feel like you’re the only one there. The owner, Justin, is truly an expert in the industry and also one of the most genuine individuals that I’ve ever met. Don’t waste your time anywhere else!

I have bought quite a few firearms from them and had decent service but last week I brought one in that I was potentially going to trade but they where not interested that was ok with me I still had cash and wanted to buy a new one but I told him I was still interested in buying something and the guy behind the counter said okay and walked away I stood there for half waiting to see something and nobody would wait on me so I ended up going to sportsman's Warehouse and bought a Glock

Went there to trade for another firearm and was told over the phone they would do it. It was brand new never fired and they are highly desirable and not easy to find cheap. They told me they would offer half of the original purchase price when I had arrived because it's "used" even though never fired. Argued with me telling me that's the going price for them used, a gentleman beside me did some research while I was talking and proved them wrong. The basically laughed in my face and said see ya. So I drove an hour and a half for them to go back on what they said. All other employees were sitting around trying to tell me they were giving me a good deal. Maybe a gun store should know the going rates for new and used guns if they're going to offer buy sell trade. Jokers. Hopefully they go out of business
