Unfortunately I think it depends largely on the store’s location. Kind of like tractor supply, try going in there and asking for something that is in common use like a calf bottle to be told those are a seasonal item, they only carry them around the Holidays.In my experience at academy, they hire warm bodies, people who know that guns go bang…and that’s about it, I was there once and the employee was trying impress his friend by showing him how to take down a Ruger pc carbine…after a few attempts I tell him how, a few seconds after that the friend asks him a question, and he says “I don’t know”…then looks at me and asks me if I know, a few years ago when the company I work for closed, k told a friend I was going to apply there he said finally someone who knows about guns, he said my wife works there and nobody knew anything about guns
I remember before the thing picking up 50 rd boxes of 9mm on sale at the Evansville store for $8.99 eachI just saw an ad saying that there is a new Academy Sports store coming to Lafayette.
I've heard the name but can't recall in what context.
What say Ingo?
Is Academy Sports worth looking into, or they just another Dick's?
Thanks
I don't mind the ones that admit that they don't know something. I appreciate the honesty. It's the ones that try to pretend that they know what they are talking about and just make something up that I really hate.In my experience at academy, they hire warm bodies, people who know that guns go bang…and that’s about it, I was there once and the employee was trying impress his friend by showing him how to take down a Ruger pc carbine…after a few attempts I tell him how, a few seconds after that the friend asks him a question, and he says “I don’t know”…then looks at me and asks me if I know, a few years ago when the company I work for closed, k told a friend I was going to apply there he said finally someone who knows about guns, he said my wife works there and nobody knew anything about guns
Their slogan “we’ve got what you need out here” should definitely be in purple.Unfortunately I think it depends largely on the store’s location.

But you are right , but It’s a good store for many that are aware of what they want and are willing to forgo knowledgeable staff to save a little money.
Yeah, you have to be careful what you post on here. These guys won't let anything slide.Okay, we are definitely talking about something different. Lmao
Speaking of not letting things slide. Academy Sports is actually in Jeffersonville, not Clarksville. The city line there runs along Highway 31. Sorry for giving you a hard time.One in Clarksville and seems pretty decent. I know a few guys on here like Dicks but I never did care for em.
Sorry, 13 year old me got off his chain for a minute there, but it’s ok, I lured him back with Reese cups and a dirty magazineOkay, we are definitely talking about something different. Lmao
Ah Wcd does not roll that way.One in Clarksville and seems pretty decent. I know a few guys on here like Dicks but I never did care for em.
