Review of Barracks 616: Firearms Trainin...

Would give 2.5 stars. Been here several times

Would give 2.5 stars. Been here several times

The good: good selection of firearms. Upstairs in the shop have more ammo. They carried bricks of .22LR when no one else had any. Staff mildly friendlier than the competitor but I attribute this to the other place being swamped with customers and this place tends to be slower in the sales department. Think about why that may be. Ammo prices are comparable to other stores.

The bad: selection of accessories is not nearly as broad as the competitor. Many times they don't carry what I'm looking for: examples: no reloading equipment, a small number of safes but no dessicant, and just overall smaller selection of goods.

The ugly: it's hard to get into their range. At least used to be able to call. Now when I tried to phone to both range and the shop, you just get a machine asking you to leave a message. Unless you reserve in advance or want to show up and get lucky you are NOT shooting here.

Unfortunate because I really want a nice alternative closer to where I live. Competitor can frustrate but that is mainly because they are swamped due to great selection and good prices.
