Sensibly Armed Personal Protection Training and Indoor Pistol Range — Local services in St. Lawrence

First off I need to correct any past negative reviews of Sensibly Armed in the past. Those people were either breaking the rules, acting disrespectfully, or are totally naive.

Andy and his crew are some of the most knowledgeable gun enthusiasts and sales people that are in the industry.

I have a short and quick example of that. I brought in my Zenith clone MP5 9mm pistol that was having issues with a Franklin Armory binary trigger (not cheap).

Prior to bringing it in I was shooting my MP5 with a Griffin Optimus suppressor at open range when the trigger stopped working. I brought it into Andy to troubleshoot.

Over the course of a few months he called the manufacturer of that trigger 12 times. All of which messages were ignored.

Unfortunately we didn't get to get that trigger running at its optimum performance.

Now here is the best part. Andy stripped my MP5 down and cleaned the heck out of it. When I came in to pick it up he had quite a story. He said, "dude did you know you had a squib (a bullet that did not fully exit the barrel) halfway down the barrel when you brought it in?"

My jaw hit the floor in amazement and said "dude hell no, I didn't know that."

He said " you're very lucky the next round didn't go off, and that trigger acted the way it did and failed because you would have had an MP5 catastrophic failure right in your face otherwise." I was shooting 9mm Black Hills 125gr. Subsonic HoneyBadger Ammo.

What a way to dodge a bullet, Andy handed me back my MP5 clone and said, "dude no charge, it's all good man you don't owe me anything, I'm sorry we couldn't get it fixed through Franklin Armory"

This place just earned a customer for life after that, and it shows the type of people that are working here

Honest, knowledgeable, respectful, and trustworthy.

Thanks so much Andy and the rest of the crew. You guys are a true asset to our passion and our second amendment rights.

Keep up the phenomenal customer...

I have been shooting at Sensibly Armed for the past 2 years and cannot imagine myself shooting at any other indoor range. My experience started over 2 years ago when I felt it was time to add a layer of protection for myself and family, but I had a lot of questions. I walked into the shop on a Sunday morning and was warmly greeted by a gentleman named Andy. He took the time to answer all of my questions and gave me the best advice of my life; take a class and learn how to shoot safely. I took that class at Sensibly Armed and I can see why that advice was given. I learned the proper way to handle a handgun safely and how to fire it safely. The staff there knows what they are talking about and have never even tried to be pushy to make a sale. I purchased my first handgun there and I am glad that I did. I am there once a week, every week and have seen the same staff almost every time. Of course staff changes, it changes at every business but some of the reviews posted are simply ludicrous. I have witnessed their interactions with many other customers and have NEVER EVER witnessed any behavior other than that of professionals who know their business and are first and foremost interested in safety. I would highly recommend Sensibly Armed to anyone interested in taking up shooting or is already a shooter and looking to make a purchase. They may be slightly higher priced than larger stores, Like Cabelas, but you absolutely get what you pay for. I have never regretted walking into Sensibly Armed that Sunday morning. I do not generally post reviews like this, but when I happened to read some of the negative comments, I knew that I had to try to set the...

My favorite indoor range. Friendly and knowledgeable staff, excellent selection of concealed carry pistols and accessories. Prices are very good on most firearms, and cheap transfers. Membership pays for itself if you go only twice a month. My only complaints would be high ammunition prices and the range clientele showing lackluster respect for the range rules. While I may gripe about ammunition costs, they do allow you to bring outside ammunition including hand loads which is nicety a lot of other ranges will bend you over the table for. I still do tend to buy a box of ammo every now and then if I’m running out of what I brought. As for range rules, please fellow shooters obey them. There’s no need to unholster a weapon in the shop, period. I’ve seen reviews of people complaining about being scolded for drawing their weapons, and this is a lack of judgement on the reviewers part. I’m sure they would be equally unhappy if someone pulled a weapon in their place of business. Common sense folks. Do yourself a favor and at least...
