Van's Sporting Goods - Cullman, Alabama

Bearded T. N.

I have been shopping with Van's for many years. T
I recently went in just to pick up a small caliber rifle ,but was turned onto a company I hadn't heard of before , Sightron.
After looking through the glass and hearing the value they brought,I purchased an S1 1.75-5x32G2. I mounted it on a Ruger American Predator Gen2 .308.
I wasnt expecting the results I got at not only distance but the low light capabilities that this little scope provides ! I can't wait to get it out to the woods this season and stretch it's legs to the fullest .
For the money ,this scope can't be best. As those who have ever invested in a scope for any type distance shooting,you can go BROKE just purchasing a good set of glass. This company Sightron has,so far, earned my business. Vans already had it,but this is going to be my first consideration when purchasing scopes from now on. Definitely a game changer without breaking the pocket !

Been shopping at vans for many years, recently went in on a budget to buy a good hunting scope. The sales men where very helpful showing me options in my budget. I ended up getting a sightron 3.5-10 scope that was super clear and worth every penny. Gary mounted and bore sighted it for me in the store and it was with a couple inches at 100 yards. Great store and people!

I came in on Black Friday at opening and it was a nut house, as expected. The employees were all handling it better than I would have, for sure. Mitchell got me squared away quickly with my first purchase. Then, I needed some specialty items and John helped me out. I completed 2 whole transactions in that mayhem in less than an hour.

2 weeks later, I needed another piece of gear and got great service from Nick. He also introduced me to a regular customer that came in who is in the same industry as I am. Got what I needed and made a great contact at the same time. Thanks Nick!

Best Archery shop in the southeast! Matt Burns has taken care of every issue I have presented him with regarding tuning. I have purchased two bows from Vans in the last two years and am especially happy with service after the sale! Just bought two baitcaster reels and a fishing rod. Dalton took the time to show me the differences in reels based on price points. Prices are awesome too! I would highly recommend Vans over chain discount sporting goods stores as the people behind the counters fish, hunt, shoot and compete in archery. Hats off to this great team of professionals!

Never owned a bow before. They are not cheap, and it's a whole new hobby to learn. That being said the archery department spent a great deal of time with me to figure out a rig that I feel is a buy once, cry once, feel good deal! While I did spend more than I anticipated. They set me up with a piece of mind that my rig is a quality piece without the fan boy price of the top brand names. I love my prime 1! Thank you guys so much for being real good ol boys helping out a green horn like me!

This is a great shop! They got all the lures and guns you could ask for. Great selection of all the right bass fishing lures. They are on top of the latest guns and ammo too! This is a must stop!

I love this place!! Other than being stupid crazy busy, because they are awesome, the selection and knowledge in behind the counter is beyond expectations. Everybody know a their stuff, but then you get the specialized guys; like for going through the suppressor process. I just bought a Canik Mete MC9, which is only my second purchase at Van's, and probably going back this weekend for something else.

Went in as a first time gun buyer, with my husband who is from middle eastern descent. I have no idea about guns, i work in downtown Birmingham and my husband wanted to help me pick one out for protection especially with the times we are living in. As a woman, it’s terrifying. I was so excited to be able to exercise my 2nd amendment right for the first time ever. But, my excitement quickly left when we got treated like the gun was being purchased for malicious intent. I was pulled away from my husband and asked several times if I was positive the gun was for me, It was insinuated that my husband was going to commit a crime with the gun but I’d be the one in jail for it since it was in my name. So disrespectful on so many levels. You made a judgement from looking at us. I know this was because of the ethnicity of my husband. He worked hard to come to America the legal way, from a country he has no rights in. He was so excited to be able to help me pick this out, something I’ve been wanting to purchase for myself for years but continually putting off…but we quickly regretted stopping here. I will never go here again and tell everyone how crappy we were treated. it’s not your job to question my intentions with a gun I very much have the right to purchase. I have no criminal background, nor does my husband and I am extremely disappointed in this business. And will all due respect, I was asking to buy a gun and not a box cutter. We left, and I made a purchase from a shop down the street for a much better deal and with much nicer, friendlier people.
