Local NRA instructor Germaine Adams says the surge in numbers doesn’t surprise her.

Colorado Springs has the benefit of one of the largest (Owner says top 5) gun shops in the country: Specialty Sports & Supply. Thousands of firearms on display and many more that aren’t.

My wife was one of them in 2013. However, she doesn’t carry nearly as often as I do.

Been in there. So far, every employee I’ve talked to has been friendly, polite, and knowledgeable without being arrogant.

” friendly, polite, and knowledgeable without being arrogant.”

I have found that is the usual case. Had a time or two when a knucklehead wanted to tout his resume. Got a giggle. Touted mine. Went on with business.

The one thing Jeff did with the place was get closer to Internet pricing. He is very competitive on pricing now. He didn’t do that for a long time and his prices were out of whack. I find his prices are definitely worth a visit now.

He also has enough inventory as well to usually get you what you want without having to go back or “order”

He has such an inventory, the old joke is, “Browning Shotgun? What Color? I mean what exact shade of dark brown would you like?”
