Great place!! The people are always friendly and helpful. One of my favorite places to get work done on my daughters bows

Went to the archery section, immediately was waited on. The manager was very helpful. Gave sound advice, worked on a piece of equipment, and totally knew what to do. Very good stuff. satisfied with the supervisor

Looking for shorts, had about 3 different pairs. The help completely ignored me. 3 of them walked past me, not one said hello or can I help you. I will never go back to this store. Id give no stars if I could.

Most of the people in guns are top notch but I’d say the the gentleman that told my FFL transfer I hadn’t filled out any paperwork or even been in the store today should be moved to clothing. He argued with me about not being there until I told him I had a receipt for the merchandise I bought. If you want a 1000$ gun I’m sure they can help, but if you want a 50$ transfer they aren’t interested.

Capitol Sports has been around a long time and will be for the future. It doesnt matter which department all of these folks are extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Prices arent bad and service is excellent.

Ive bought stuff here for years. The last time I went in looking for a new bow. The young guy at the archery counter barely acknowledged me when I told him I was shopping for a bow. He was fletching arrows and apparently that was more important than a potential $500-1000 purchase. Thats fine. Ill take my business somewhere else.

Capital Sports did a fantastic repair to my Colt .380. In addition to having multiple rounds rounds jammed in it, the slide was stuck....making my gun resemble modern art. Capital Sports even fixed the problem the gun always had where the first round out of the magazine jammed. I recommend them for any kind of cleaning or gun repair.

Waited at the firearms counter for 15 minutes was not even acknowledged. Genuinely poor service will not spend momey again

With gunsmithing that is cheap and good, though less often fast - but thats because theyre cheap and good, and therefore busy. Given the other tradeoffs, they do with in the way Id prefer. Wonderful people.

Friendly people who knows their jobs. Great place to shop from clothing to firearms and fishing gear. Just got a new fly rod and reel from them. It was a bargain.

I have shopped here twice and asked questions over the phone. Employees are always willing to assist even if I am lack definitive knowledge on what I am leaving looking for.

Best Sporting Goods Store in Helena. Friendly knowledgeable staff. Good selection

They were very helpful. Nice store and great selection

Good assortment of hunting,fishing gear. Fun place.

Capital Sports of Helena Montana has a great selection of outdoor products!My first trip there and I browsed around the whole store a bit. The customer service was helpful and nice.I took my bow in to the archery department for a tune up and got it adjusted for $30. Not a bad deal at all!Would say check em out if youre ever in the area.

Great place.Great service.

Follow Up:Thank You so much for the great customer service, It really means the world to me!

Greedy losers tried to offer me $175 for a $1,500 shotgun. I wouldn’t come back if they paid me to walk around the store.Edit: wrong customer, but it’s good to see you make a habit of being discourteous to everyone. That inbreeding hit hard there huh?

Good selection of clothing and outdoor products.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. With a national shortage on guns and ammunition I have seen other sporting goods stores really price guage. But Capital Sports prices have stayed steady. I appreciate their commitment to the customers.

Awesome service very friendly staff

Local store, good selection.

Great place to shop .

Locally owned, thanks for great service. great staff, Ed and Bart are excellent!

Friendly local store. Great brands and service

Helpful staff, good selection, and competitive prices on higher quality outdoor products.

Great local sporting goods store. They have everything you need for your MT adventures as well as friendly staff!

Friendly staff. Well stocked for all outdoor fun.

One of the best sporting goods stores around!!

Great selection and friendly staff. Good prices also.

Capital Sports is my favorite sporting goods store. I appreciate the superb customer service and the expert advice I receive from the gentlemen in the firearms dept. Recently had a scope mounted on my Springfield M1A. As always, the staff were very courteous and the quality of work was fantastic. I highly recommend this store to everyone for all your sporting good needs. Support your local businesses. Amazon cant give you this kind of service and support!

Awsume place looking sports hunting kayaking sking water sports then shop today or regret the higher price at other stores ☹☹😅😅😅

Nick was super helpful in picking out a compound bow for me. He sighted it in and made sure I was satisfied. He is knowledgeable and quick. We were coming in only to adjust my husbands new to him compound bow. But, how things change...

Good prices and helpful staff. Especially at the archery counter!

A great Helena business. I operated my law firm across the street for years and Capital always outperformed its competitors. Capital should be your first stop for all your outdoor needs.

Capitals archery shop (Shawn & Nick) were GREAT to deal with. Nick was super patient with my wife, who is a first time bow buyer. He took as much time as she needed to find the right bow and to set it up so it was right for her. He wasnt pushy, and didnt try to sell the most expensive items in the shop. Competent guys at this shop! Definitely recommend them!

I like this store. Get good advice from archery dept. Helped fit & set up a bow earlier this year. Their archery stock is a tad low but hey....its archery season!!

Support your local sporting goods store

Great place for all of your hunting, fishing, camping and other outdoor sports. Great service, especially the gunsmiths, and its employee owned.

A little bit slow to help on the staff end, but other than that clean and safe.

Bought a ski helmet over the weekend, and the staff were SO helpful and knowledgeable. They have the best tuning for snowboards and skis too!

Knowledgeable, friendly staff. Ed and his team do a great job!

Great sporting goods store. They always have a good selection of vintage firearms. Customer service is excellent.

Great people. Great selection.

Nice gun selection and knowledgeable staff.

For a local sporting goods store this is probably the best in the entire Helena valley. The employees behind the counter are friendly helpful and knowledgeable. If youre going to be making a firearms purchase definitely the gentleman behind the counter are the ones to talk with they will talk you through the purchase make sure its the right purchase for you and assist you in whatever you need. Dave and his crew are top-notch.

Great place

Helpful staff, diverse selection of boots

Great Service and had exactly what I wanted !

I purchased a used M9A1 from Capital sports less than a month ago. I noticed some pitting on the top the barrel and the salesman, Sal, was able to knock the price down a little. I got it out the the range and was shooting awful groups. Bad enough to where I figured it couldn’t just be my poor aim. Got home and inspected the gun a little closer. There was some barely noticeable scratches on the crown of the muzzle. I brought it back and the gunsmith, Tyler, threw it on the lathe and refinished it for me. Had it back in a few hours, free of charge. Great service! Will be back.

Tuned up my skis real nice

Love this place. Great merchandise from locals to tourists. Wide array of fishing lures and fishing equipment. Great for any outdoor enthusiast with Montana in mind.

Best place to buy fishing equipment in Helena

I LOVE spending time in Capital Sports! I fish, and I find everything I need for a great day on the water, in the store. If you need fishing advice, talk to Bart. He knows so much! Ive also bought a couple of rifles and a hand gun there and the people are amazing. They also have clothes, boots and shoes, and hunting gear.

Love the family feel off this store

Nothing better than local sporting goods stores. This is the go to place in Helena for quite a number of things.

One of the best shopping experience of my life so far( not even being dramatic). They are so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about everything they sell! I had a lovely younger blonde lady that helped me find and fittted my feet with the cutest sandals! Would definitely recommend to everyone to go check them out!!!!

Great place. Great friendly service.

Ive been a Customer for my whole life

Friendly knowledgeable people, great selection, fast lines.

Somethings overpriced but its a good place.

Staff is always friendly, but Nick in the archery shop is great. He always puts his customers first. He cares deeply about his work. Shaun is also great. Nice to be able to go to a pro shop and not be made to feel like an idiot. These guys take the extra time to really help and answer questions.

Great store, great gear. Everything was clean and organized. I feel confident that had I needed any help the staff was available and knowledgeable.

Great selection of fly fishing gear and hunting gear I highly recommend stopping in if your in there area!

My guns are my extended tools. When I need ammo or an upgrade I trust Capital. No bleeding heart crybabies here, just men doing their jobs. I dont like to waste time. These people are professionals and they dont try to sell you anything. Good information is hard to get and these guys know what they are doing.

Great little sports store!

Went in to Capital Sports today, to see if I could clear up peep sight issue on my bow. Sean fixed me up with a verifier for my 66 year old eyes. I was in and out in less than a half hour. Shot at home from several ranges that had been difficult for me, what a difference! As long as Capital continues to provide good quality at a fair price, along with knowledgeable staff, theyve got my business. Thanks again!

Helpful staff with a wide variety of hunting accessories and guns as well as other outdoor gear.

Fantastic archery department!

Went in to purchase a hunting pack today. The 2 gentleman that helped me were great. Thank you for taking the time to help me find the correct size, appreciate it. 👍

I have shopped here since is was a little kid, but I made some Christmas purchases and cant return them. I have the receipt and items are unused and still in packing. Return policy is 30 days. So beware while shopping for gifts. Great store and selection though. I have since added a star as management reached out to help rectify this issue.

Great customer service when I asked for help, and a reasonable price for my tent. Thank you!

Outstanding experience with FFL transfer completed today. They held my rifle for two days waiting for my local dealer to contact them and waiting for me to complete my flight home. Professional and fulfilled every word of our hand shake agreement.

The bow department guys were super and are always super helpful!!

Great locally owned store. I have been coming here for over 5 years and have never had a bad experience. Great job!

Great store, the archery shop team is amazing!

First class sporting goods store run by first class people. I am not a gun expert, but my friends who are tell me they have the best gunsmith anywhere. They were very willing to spend time to educate a novice like me. Friendly, quality products, and good selection for what they specialize in. Best sporting goods store I have ever been in!

As always, the Capital Sports crew is knowledgeable and helpful and provided exactly what I needed exactly when I needed it. Daughter needed a rooftop cargo box (yuppie coffin) for a cross-country trip in 2 weeks. I checked the online options and never even considered CS until I googled locally looking for a used unit. CS had the Yakima brand, top of the line, Memorial Day Sale, brand new, for less than I could order one on the web. And the guys helped me get it on the roof! Great store, great environment, great staff. Why look elsewhere?

This a pretty decent general sporting goods store that is locally owned and not a national franchise. They may not always have exactly what I am looking for, but they almost always have something that will do. They sometimes have some pretty good sales, but except for that, dont come here expecting any bargains!

Capital Sports is a great local business in Helena. Engaged owner, highly professional staff, consistent high quality merchandise. Recently purchased a safe that developed a problem after delivery, and Capital Sports quickly arranged for a replacement, delivered without charge, and then transferred the warranty. This is my go to location for everything from boots to maps and all manner of outdoor gear.

The gun counter was excellent to work with. Staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Their selection was a bit limited compared to some places but the prices were fair and I was able to get what I wanted.

Great sporting goods store. Fair prices, quality products, and outstanding expertise throughout the store. Regardless your sporting question, there are multiple people who can answer the most difficult questions. Best Sporting Goods store in Helena. Best products, best quality, best staff, most knowledgeable, totally honest, & fair pricing. Give them a shot, youll be pleased.

I took my gun to here to get it fixed. They took a very long time to fix it without much of any explanation after the times I called to check on the progress. (Over like a month or two). They ended up getting it done eventually and I was relieved. I paid for the service and was satisfied with the work. After thinking about it though I wrote a 1 star review on google because I thought they were pretty slow...big deal right?! Well this is where it gets interesting. I get a call from the store owner one day, and I am curious A. How he got my number? and B. What is this about?The owner of Capital Sports and Western called to ask about my 1 star review left on google. He used the work ticket from my gun that got serviced and some how had the lack of brain cells to call me and try to BULLY me into writing a good review!Is that even legal? I certainly think unprofessional and unethical. I still support them on occasion and am not a complete chump about the situation. I love their bow shop! But what nerve to call and bully me about my review!

Great sports store, and great people. Fifty years in business, well done!

Our go-to since 1993!!

Lots of customers in gun shop without a mask, It was packed. I left..

The staff at the Archery Shop are terrific. They are extremely helpful and go out of their way to take care of customers. If you are new to archery or have been at it a while and looking for friendly helpful staff this is the place to go.

This was my first time going here. I was happy with the environment. They have a wide veriety of Simms gear. I was happy to see an employee sitting at a table tying flies. My boyfriend who goes there a lot told me they tie most of the streamers themselves. To me thats really cool knowing could look the guybin the face that made the fly I am buying. I was happy with the shop.

Great locally owned sporting good store. Best if you can hit the sales sometimes a little spendy. Each area of the store does have a Subject Matter Expert which is helpful.

Im new to town and I was attempting to sell my gun. Keaton C. Santos really helped me out. I have been to places where they didnt even bother looking at my gun, and just wrote down the serial number. However, Keaton displayed fantastic service by asking me questions and providing me with the best options and price. If youre looking for someone to help you out with questions in reference to buying or selling firearms, definitely see Keaton!

I came into the Archery Department to have the limbs changed on my Mathews bow. Shaun was professional and competent and I left with a smile on my face, having my expectations exceeded.

Sean in the archery dept. Is the best. Always very helpful and knowedgeble

Great service every time I go in. I have never had a negative expirience here and never expect to. Confident, friendly, and knowledgeable staff in the gun department. Kale has been especially helpful to me with purchases and advice this summer. Capital Sports is my go-to in Helena.

Very Professional and a pleasure to work with.

Another great experience at Capital Sports. Helenas number 1 sporting goods store.

Always great to shop there. Significant deals on guns, lots of interesting used guns. The only gunsmiths I will take my guns to. Great staff.

Im very thankful for the gunsmith staff at Capital, especially Tyler. Tyler has done a number of things for me over the past few years, from light trigger work on an AR, repairing a Valmet made Savage O/U that decided to torch both barrels with one trigger pull (and thats not a common shotgun), he took great care installing a recoil pad on my Citori Feather Lightning and lately dropping a Timney into a really nice .257AI 98 Mauser. He is a pleasure to talk to and I trust and admire his craftsmanship. Helena is lucky to have him call this his home.

What a joke this has to be the worst place I have been they had no problem taking my 20 dollars to use less than 3 months or range time but didnt bother to tell me since I moved here they wont sell me a gun. Cool I will just stand out front on public land and tell everyone about this bullshit store.

Great Locally Owned Sporting Store

Nice to have a place to take the kids to practice their compound bows
