SharpShooters has been a Mom and Pop type Gun Store, and we are a family owned and operated establishment...

See more History below:  

 Our difference in doing business is the personalized service we provided for our customers.  We are a true "Value Added Re-seller".  With more than 500 firearms in stock of every make and model, we work hard to stock those items most desirable to our customers, and our customer base is continually growing and changing.  So we are growing and changing too.  We have a variety of handguns, long guns (including muzzle loaders) and reloading supplies as well as what many call the BEST ammo inventory in Arizona.  Scopes, magazines, and other accessories for your firearms make up the rest of our vast inventory and we have shipments of new products arriving each week (often daily).

Many people come to our store to make their final purchase after looking at all that is offered by the big box stores and are then happy that they have gotten the best deal.  Some of our customers no longer waste any time going any place else and have come to know that they will be treated right and honestly all the time. We have the support of a highly trained gun smith who can do just about anything needed to satisfy your gun repair, restoration, or customizing needs.  And we stand behind all our work...

We also have one of the only Indoor, virtual shooting ranges in the area and many have found out how much this can help their shooting skills (and it is Fun too).  Imagine firing more than 1000 rounds in an hour and having a total cost of less than $50 and being able to walk away with no guns to clean.  With the help of our experiences shooting staff, most find ways of improving their skills and having a great time while doing it.  You could talk about it all day, but nothing replaces actually coming in and spending some time.  No need to bring anything but your self and maybe a friend.

We added Custom Kydex Holsters in 2021 to our service offerings and we will work to make exactly what you need for your handgun and carry desires.  With the addition of a talented local Leather worker (an artisan in his craft) we can provide Full leather or a hybrid combination to go that extra step for you.

In 2022 we added Cerakoting to our Offerings.  We can now provide custom coloring and protection to your firearms and accessories.  This is some hard stuff, but allows for some very amazing looking designs and options.  Come in and talk to us about what we can do for you.  Your imagination is about the only limit.

The SharpShooter History:

Established sometime in about 1990 in Orwell, NY by Art Drake. The Store was run out of the back of the Drake home and underwent several changes and expansions over the years. 

The complete business, and the business name (SharpShooters) were purchased by Skip & Cathy Steinbrecher in January of 2014.  They operated the store in Orwell for about 6 weeks before moving it; locks, stocks, and barrels, (puns intended) to its next location in Pulaski, New York.  

Skip & Cathy had already been setting up "Mission Accomplished Equipment" as a new Gun Store in the area so the two names were both used in the business through the first cycle of Licensing.  As time went on, the Mission Accomplished Equipment was dropped in favor of the shorter, better known name of "SharpShooters".  But the old name hangs on in some older documentation.

In 2019, due to a desire to be closer to their children, Skip and Cathy decided to sell the house and business and relocate to Snowflake, AZ and open up a new shop.  They were unsuccessful in finding a buyer to take over the business, and so in October of 2019 they packed up the shop and moved everything across the country.

We specialize in Guns & Ammunition sales and have an inventory to support the desires of our customers in the areas of Shooting (Target, Competition, Hunting, and Personal Defense) as well as Reloading of Ammunition for personal use.

We sell new and used firearms of every shape and size including Handguns of all kinds, Rifles, Shotguns, and Muzzle loaders.  We take trades of guns and also purchase used guns of all kinds if we can come to a mutually agreeable price with the current owners of those weapons.  

We also sell Scopes, slings, cleaning supplies and other accessories to make your shooting Sports more enjoyable and rewarding. We do not not extend our inventory into clothing and such as our space is full of the shooting supplies more desired.

We are recognized as a dealer of: Henry Firearms, Nikon Scopes, GLOCK, Savage, Remington, CVA, Anderson and Winchester to mention just a few.  We are associated with a large number of National firearms distributors and are able to access most anything available on the market.  There are only a couple brands that are difficult, but we can often get our hands on those too, for our customers.

We welcome special orders and provide Gun Transfer services to support private sales as well as internet sales of Guns and Ammunition and charge the lowest fees in the area for these services. We also ship firearms out to other parts of the Country for our Customers.

Our Gun Smithing and Gun Cleaning services are top notch and we consider no job impossible...  We like a challenge and if you can afford it, we can get it to happen.  (Keeping in mind that some things are just too far gone or not worth the repairs they need.)

December of 2023 brought on the next step and move of the Gun Store.  With 3 years in a lease situation and not able to really set things up in another's digs. The Store again moves.  This time to 1362 East Snowflake BLVD, in Snowflake, AZ.  A new bibber building and on our own property.  Dec 20th brings the opening of the new store.  Just in time to mess up the Christmas season and make us a little harder for some of our customers to find.
