Default Service at Bashaw Sports

Had my Benelli SBE2 there for service work. Turn around time of two weeks. I don't spend big money there or have connnections outside of business. Pud also has no idea who I am on this forum.

I've personally never bought anything from them, but they have put up with my endless streams of nonsensical questions with patience and grace.

I might just owe them a sale

Took an Winchester 101 to them for some repairs. Was warned that it might be awhile because it would have to wait its turn in the queue so I was ready and expecting it to take a month or more. About a week later they called and said it was fixed and mailed it to me. Very pleased.

i was there a couple weeks ago with the 8 year old grandkid and they had a whack of stuff on clearance prices. little fella really likes going there..like i need an excuse to go there!
colin, if you decide to go there one day let me know and we can hook for biscuits next door cafe.
if you have never been there it is kinda cool in 1950s way, only in bashaw you can take the picture of the town from 1899 and the one from 1999 and the only visible difference the number of cows in the picture.
only in bashaw where you can park in front of a bank on main street and haul out a rifle or two and its normal.

maybe an AO meet and greet is in the works some saturday morning in the new year...the cafe holds like, 11 people at once.

Ive bought a few rifles and scopes from Bashaw. When i bought my T3 LH 6.5x55 pud was the only one in the province that had one. I have bought reloading equipment over the phone and had it in the mail in a couple days. I can go in to that little shop and spend hours.

They put a new extractor in one of my Model 700's last year! 90 bucks cheaper than Edmonton. Fast too! I always look forward to a trip to Bashaw Sports!

Pud and his staff have always been really good to me, small town hospitality and service is hard to beat. I love posting on this forum because he doesn't know who the hail I am, so he will have an extra big smile for everybody!! happy new year to everyone on this board and to Pud and the staff at Bashaw Sports.

I have long regarded Bashaw and everyone out there as the best gun shop in the province, or at least near the very, very top. Excellent prices, great service and everyone in unbelievably friendly. I have been supporting them for years and I will continue to do so for years to come, shop with confidence!
