Never a disappointment to be a patron at this store. Competitive prices to big stores in Lafayette and a local feel of home. No need to go elsewhere.

Very lovely staff. From buying a clip for my husbands gun, to purchasing a large order of lumber. We were able to get everything we need in one spot. Even the Archer supplies upstairs. They got it all down. Plus they delivered our lumber same day.
