I had a Browning shotgun transferred into Higher Power Outfitters. Doug and the staff did a wonderful job. My experience, typically, at other stores is little to no customer service. Or you get what do you want attitude. Not at this store. Everyone was very helpful, had recommendations, and clearly wanted to ensure customer satisfaction.

I’ve been in a few times; bought some ammo, some gear, browsed, talked guns. Great place. Love the staff, none of these stuffy gun “you ought to know” types. No dumb questions and very welcoming.Been working with Ashley on some Cerakote projects. I would definitely recommend!This is kind of a full service gun shop: guns, ammunition, accessories, gear, armorer/gunsmith (on-premise), cerakote, knife sharpening, gun talk and friendly folks.Really, really like this store and staff and give high recommendations.

Outstanding service. It was explained it would take between 1-2 weeks to get my barrel swapped with a custom barrel. To my surprise I was called the next day to pick up my rifle that it is done. There was also an issue which needed research to complete the exchange. Everything was handled professionally and with expertise. All said and done I was also surprised and satisfied with the cost which was very reasonable. Happy with the outcome. Very courteous staff. Thank you to High Power Outfitter. Customer for life!

Small knowledgeable staff. Large selection of rifles and handguns even with the current state climate situation they’re still able to trickle in ammo( though a bit higher than what were used to paying though understandable again on par with 2020)they have it available when you need it.Full service Gunsmithing Too! Just about everything even Cerakoting. They explained how they can refinish old barrels or just make them custom colored and designed. Very neat process. Will continue to support local business now that I found this place.

I drove 90 miles one way for a warranty repair. I called first, but appointment was not necessary. Immediately when I arrived, the Owner/gunsmith dropped what he was doing and fixed my gun in about 20 minutes and I was on my way. No waiting for days, no hassle. Friendly, jovial, and knowledgeable staff. Well stocked shelves with ammo and quality accessories. No Walmart junk. If I lived closer they would be my home gun shop.

I love this shop and the people who work there. They know me and my shooting needs. Always helpful and ready with suggestions and hints. Ive even received the occasional phone call of Hey, Susan, we just got such-and-such in and thought you might be interested. Now, THATS service! Good prices, too!

We have been customers at Higher Power Outfitters for two years now and wouldnt consider shopping anywhere else for our firearm needs. The owner Ryan and his staff are always friendly, knowledgeable and helpful; the shop is truly a no pressure environment where the prices are always fair. With a great selection of firearms, optics, accessories and ammo they are a one stop shop for all of your shooting and hunting needs and with certified armorers on site customization and repair is never a problem. I HIGHLY recommend shopping here and if youre not local they are worth the drive. They also have a great website and ship nationwide, check em out.

I have had the pleasure of purchasing several guns and a lot of ammo from Higher Power. The prices are great, the people are great and the service is great. Buy a gun, get the first cleaning free! You gotta be happy with that! Ryan, Paige, Zack, and Matt all treat you like a member of the family. Very knowledgeable, professional and courteous. Great place to shop.

The first time I purchased a gun, was back in Jan. The staff knew, they were helping a fist timer. Nicer things could not have been said about them. Today, they outdid themselves. I went in tonight for their Concealed Carry Class. What an amazing experience. The staff and the instructor, topnotch. They made sure that everyone was put at ease. Every single question answered, even if it took them into their time. I cant wait to go back again! Thank you all so much.

Higher Power Outfitters, Inc. is a very knowledgeable and friendly store to shop in. You are always made to feel welcome and greeted when you walk in the door. We have been shopping at Higher Power Outfitters since the store opened. I would not buy a hand gun or rifle anywhere else. If they dont have what youre looking for, they will go out of their way to find it for you. They also have ammo and accessories that are needed.Andy and Lea

We have been to every gun shop from Port Charlotte to Fort Myers and Higher Power is by far the best in service, knowledge and pricing! They are very friendly and always greet us by name when we walk in. Ryan has an immense amount of knowledge on guns and has never steered us wrong. We have gotten to know Ryan and Paige very well and they always go above and beyond for us. They are wonderful people to work with and we wouldnt take our business anywhere else.

Im a retired County Police Detective and Special Deputy US Marshal from NJ. I recently retired and moved To Punta Gorda. I just stopped in to check out Higher Power Outfitters. Ended up buying another CC handgun from Ryan and Britney. I know guns from being, on the job for 30 years. Ryan gave me a great price, and I couldnt not by the gun I was interested in. I recommend this gun store highly if youre looking for excellent prices on quality weapons, and a great staff to work with. Be safe. Cory

Ryan and his team have helped me tremendously! I havent been to a gun store, especially in this area that is as knowledgeable and as personable as these men and women. They have everything I need and help me pick out a few items on my wish list and I will continue to do business with them in the future. I recommend you to stop by and take a look for yourself as we all know word of mouth is the best advertising, definitely in small communities.Thanks again guys for everything.

I highly recommend Higher Power Outfitters Inc. in Punta Gorda, FL as the #1 place to purchase your firearms. I also recommend while youre there to sign up for the next concealed weapons carry class... Youll be glad you did. What impressed me the most about Higher Power Outfitters Inc., was Ryan and his staffs knowledgeable about their selection of firearms. They took the time to listen and helped me select the right firearm. I left the store feeling the purchase was more about the customer service than the sale of the firearm.Ill be back!

Ryan and his crew really helped me out. I am new to the area and they really made me feel welcome, which is much different than the experience I had at a couple of other shops in the area. They ordered in a Taurus pt709 for me and I took the CCW class at their shop, which was great. I definitely recommend this shop to anyone; but, especially to those that want a friendly, welcoming experience. Thanks!

Hands down, the best firearms store around. Ryan and his staff go above and beyond to help with all my needs...be it collectibles, hunting arms, sport shooting, or carry options. They dont try to just sell you products, they work with you to understand your needs and ensure you are comfortable with the choices available...BEFORE you make any purchases. More than a gun store, they are a real asset to the Punta Gorda community. I wouldnt go any place else.

Review №47

Being a pistol packing mama as the cliche goes I know my way around a firearm and have dealt with several local stores. Sadly, I have found very few that cater to both men and women. In other stores I felt as though I was looked down on and being taken for a ride, if you know what I mean, but not here. The owner Ryan treated me with the utmost caring and respect and spent a lot of time with me helping me decide which hand gun was the best for my current needs. I felt comfortable with his advice and he really knows what he is selling. Grateful that I found this store and can highly recommend it to any gun enthusiast. Thank you for the great experiences!

Review №48

Purchased firearm from here, put 50 rounds through it and hated the performance (no fault of the seller) and brought it back in to upgrade via trade-in hoping theyd give me a decent amount of the buying price back; especially since I purchased it there and was willing to spend even more. Not so much. Low-balled me on price so I said okay and walked out with no intention on ever stepping foot back in. A week later I sold the gun online for 95% of original purchase price new. Purchased two other guns elsewhere since. And its nothing personal since I really liked the people working there but it was borderline offensive to a customer that was willing to establish a long-term relationship with many more future purchases. Good luck to you all.

I was having trouble with my shotgun. I brought it in to be checked out. Within 5 minutes the gunsmith, Kail, figured out the problem. He explained it and showed me the problem. He also explained how he would go about fixing it. He said it may be a week before I could pick it up due to the work queued up.So far I am pleased with the service and Interaction.

Very friendly and professional staff. Exceeded my expectations. There are a lot of gun shops around this area, but none make you feel like you are family and are inviting with no sales pressure. They listen to your needs and help guide you to make a purchase that fits those needs. I cant say enough great things about this shop, go see them! You wont be disappointed

I asked Ryan to order a 5 Walther PPQ for me as they didnt have one in stock. I also asked him if he would be interested in taking some guns I dont shoot much in on trade, he said bring them in and well take a look. Several days later Ryan informed me that my Walther had arrived so I drove up to Punta Gorda from Naples to pick up my gun. Ryan gave me a very fair price for the used guns I was looking to trade that I decided to pick up a Sig 230 as well. The entire process was very quick, professional and pleasant, unlike some gun shop where they seem to act like you should be happy they are willing to sell you something Ryan and his staff really seem to want to assist you and this combined with the fair pricing I received is the reason I will drive over an hour to purchase another gun form Higher Power Outfitters passing by a bunch of other gun shops along the drive.Thanks again now I just need to get both to the range.

Review №83

I was looking at getting back into shooting and getting my concealed carry license a few years ago. Higher Power Outfitters Inc. was recommended very highly by a friend. My first impression was that they were courteous and professional. They were extremely patient, helpful and knowledgeable to people of all skill levels. I not only purchased my first carry pistol from here which was a Glock but I also took the concealed carry course they offered which was extremely informative. As I got to know Ryan and Paige better I found very endearing qualities. Honor and Honesty.. They will give you the honest answer and they refuse to price gouge. When the prices on 62 grain 5.56 went through the roof with the proposed ATF ban, they refused to jump on the band wagon and raise the price on their ammo because they didnt want to be known for that. Ive since had Ryan do a great deal of work on firearms I own from AR15 to pistols. All the gunsmith work has been exceptionally done and reasonably priced. I highly recommend Higher Power Outfitters Inc. to anyone!

In charlotte county there are many choices when it comes to gun shops. Some try adding walls of inventory of poor quality guns and ammo just for show and some have indoor ranges to attract people in the door. When you go to a place like higherpower the only thing they put on the shelf is top quality firearms no space fillers. Thier gun cleaning and serviceing is timely and to the highest standards. Highly recommend this place to those looking for a honest deal!

I have visited Higher Power Outfitters a couple of times in the past few months after I drove past and noticed how close they were to my neighborhood. I have bought several boxes of ammunition and each time i went in the staff was very welcoming and were happy to help. I recently went in about a week ago and asked to have a set of sights put on my Glock, they said absolutely, and in about 5 minutes i had my Glock back. I was expecting to leave and get a call back about my sights since of course they are busy working on others firearms, but they fit me in quickly. In my short wait, I got to meet Ryan, who was very knowledgeable and chatted with him for a little while. Him and his staff answered my questions and from what i could see did a great job on my Glock sights.I just tested out my sights after having to wait a week, no free time, and they are laser straight, no noticeable change in point of aim and point of impact. Excellent Service and great people. Im looking forward to spending more time there.
