Our story

A counter, a coffee pot and a lot of opinions about rifles.

Ruth Halden opened the shop in 1998 in a converted feed store on the edge of town. Her son-in-law Dan Pike joined a few years later with a lathe and a waiting list.

We still run it the same way: we only sell what we would carry ourselves, we tell you when something is not worth the money, and the coffee is always on.

Reviews

What customers say

Dan rebarreled my grandfather’s .30-06 and it shoots better than it did new. Fair price, honest timeline.
Jesse R.Elk Fork
First handgun, zero pressure. Maya walked me through everything and signed me up for the intro class.
Karen M.Bozeman
Ordered online Tuesday, picked it up Thursday. The transfer took ten minutes.
