Sportsman's Warehouse Lafayette

[bradp]

We took our 3 year old daughter to see Santa last night at Tippecanoe Mall (yes I was carrying) and on our way home we stopped at SW and looked around. The place looked like it had been stripped of allit's good stuff. Their gun supply was low and almost no ammo to speak of. I noticed the prices were a little higher on all the guns than the last time I was there a couple of months ago. My wife even thought the prices were high on stuff too. My Kahr PM40 I bought from PSS was over $100 higher at Sportsman's than PSS and that was just a couple of months ago. I was disappointed to say the least. Hopefully after the holidays their prices come down a little. Oh well I'll just buy at Plainfield again.

Sportsman's Warehouse (in Lafayette, anyhow) used to be full of ammo, but since early November they haven't been able to keep stock levels up. Shotgun Shells are around, as are strange rifle rounds, but don't go looking for 9mm or .45 or something.. last time I was there, I don't think I could find a box of .40 at all, period..

If you want ammo, hit Wally World..

Pistols (in stock) are limited, but they've got a bunch of rifles. Prices are high, but they're not going for the person who's price shopping anyhow..

They've got a bunch of nice Surefire lights and knives, though!!

The times I've been the Sportsman, they have had good selection but prices seem high for about everything, not just shooting stuff. Good to use if you're local and need something quick.

When they first came to Lafayette they seemed to be inline with most other shops in town . But as time pass it seems they have went above most . Their ammo (handgun) is usally none existant on popular calibers . , and if waiting at gun counter , you are lucky to be aknowleged that you are waiting .

They do seem to be pricey, but they have a lot of stuff I haven't been able to find around here in terms of reloading goodies.

Service was good, especially considering how many people were at the gun counter. The guy helping us was also helping a couple other couples at the same time.

Sportsman's for Reloading supplies, Ammo (if you catch a sale...or coupons...), and MAGAZINES.

They're VERY competitive on mag prices.

Just bought a t\c encore last week at sportsman's, they were very helpful and the price was the same as everyone else or a little cheaper!

I'm betting that's more than you'll find now.

I dunno but stop pointing that gun at me chief!

Since no one else has mentioned it explicitly, I think I'll point out that Sportsman's in Lafayette has closed, to save anyone a trip who was planning on going there.

The closest one to Indiana is now in Lexington KY. I did like looking around in the Laffeyette store.
