Central Connecticut Arms, LLC

Came in with a friend who had been there a couple times prior to purchase my first pistol for concealed carry and I had an absolutely amazing experience. Great staff that were easy to talk to And very knowledgeable. I was deciding between two different pistols, and I was pointed in the right direction. I had a couple questions about things regarding concealed carry, and the staff went above and beyond to help me out. I’ll definitely be coming back for more purchases.

These guys are awesome! Bought my first hand gun here, everyone was super informative and friendly. Customer service was A+ (i am a bit of a customer service freak and can appreciate a business that has great service) sent my gun to be painted, got it back and frame wasnt sitting flush so had to leave it again. Rob had it fixed within a day. I had even price compared the same gun at hoffmans which was a bit cheaper but chose to buy it here because the service was unmatched. They are helpful and will walk you through taking it apart/ cleaning / etc. rob even made up for me having to come back again which wasn't expected but extremely appreciated. A+++++++ guys all around. Great first experience. Again, customer service UNMATCHED

If you’re looking for a new or used firearm buy it from these fine people. Staff is super knowledgeable and friendly. Had a minor issue with my Glock 43x, brought in for them to look at and they fixed it on the spot. Don’t waste your time going anywhere else.

Highly recommend! We're very patient with me in my decision making process and listened carefully to what my needs were. All 3 of my son's as well as myself call central arms our go to gun store. Absolute Top Notch service!

Got my pistol permit certificate here in may. The owner made it an easy to understand process. the store has an excellent variety of firearms for a store in connecticut. Prices are also fair I hope to buy my first pistol from them.

Bought my first conceal carry here and I had a great experience. Staff took the time to educate me and answer all of my questions. The process was smooth and enjoyable. Since then I have bought multiple other firearms from them and have had an excellent experience each and every time. One firearm had a minor issue which they addressed promptly and on the spot after walking in. My family members have bought here with no issues and I will continue to recommend Central Connecticut Arms to all my friends/family. Thank you!

I drive all the way from East Hartford to this store why? These guys are awesome they earned this returning customer, definitely want to thank the two young men who work here for their explendid service, I used to be so skeptical about visiting gun stores because of past experiences at other places, but these guys are it, amazing customer service and knowledgeable staff.

Took my basic pistol course and Robert was friendly and knowledgeable. A great place to take your courses. He also printed notarized the application which was very helpful. The staff in the store is also very welcoming and helpful. Plenty of parking and offer a military discount. I would definitely recommend them.

Admittedly it’s been too long since I’ve had the time or the means to head out to the shop, and even though it’s probably a 45 minute drive or so, I consider Rob and crew to be my local go to shop for anything firearm related. It is worth it, every single time! Inventory is second to none, hospitality is top notch and the deals never end! Keep up the great work guys! You can’t go wrong with Central Connecticut Arms!

Walked in and was greeted quickly and friendly,The person that helped me took his time with each gun I was interested in and walked out knowing alot more then when I walked in!Will definitely be back to make a purchase when ready!

Awesome Business. Super friendly and helpful staff. Being new to gun ownership the staff was very patient and knowledgeable. They spent over 2 hours with me looking at different guns, talking about pros and cons of each one and helping me find what was a good fit with me. I also didn't feel like I was pressured into buying anything. The selection is huge, every gun I had researched they had in their shops. The prices are fair, close to what you would find online. An overall great experience! I would recommend to anyone in CT.

Took my CCW class with Rob and he was amazing and extremely knowledgeable. Went back to buy my first pistol and he was able to get me exactly what I wanted and was extremely helpful in helping me decide. The team there is extremely knowledgeable and has an incredible selection to look at. I would highly recommend them to any person looking to purchase a firearm or to take any of their classes.

Ive bought five firearms at CCA over the last two years and been there without buying anything they give the same level of service. Everyone there takes their time with you, shows you what you ask to see, always pleasant and professional. A great place to go and is always fully stocked.

Our 1st time here. As new permit holders, we stopped in on Sunday 6/25/23 about a half hour before the store closed to check it out. The staff took their time with us even though it was close to quitting time, especially with my wife on her 1st potential handgun purchase. We (she) was shown a bunch of different guns and asked some questions and got good, solid answers. We did not make a purchase due to timing, but we will definitely be back (I want to get a rifle and have questions) It's nice to see great service. We didn't feel like just a number and weren't rushed due to being close to locking up for the night.
We have since returned a couple of times and made a few purchases. Can't go wrong with Central Connecticut Arms.

Update:
We've made several firearm/accessory purchases from them since this review. No changes. Staff was accommodating and very helpful. Cannot recommend enough!

Great Guys I’ve gotten great prices on guns they sold for me . Best guys to do business with!!

Bought a silencer through the Silencer Shop portal and Central CT Arms helped me with some troubleshooting on the atf application. They went above and beyond to make sure it all worked out. Very good service and very decent people. Excellent overall. Thanks, guys.

I think that CCA is the Best Gunshop in Commy Ct. I feel like I’m with friends whenever I go to buy , or just look at new stock , n say Hi ; this is my favorite place to go !!! The Customer Service is topped by no one !!!!! It’s the kind of Gunshop that you call your Gunshop !!! Always a great experience, everyone is willing to help you get the information or products you need !!!! I’m actually waiting for a new piece to come in !!!! I think anybody will be happy shopping here, or learning more about what you love !!!!

We went in here over 2 days and interacted with 4 different people including the owner, Frank and Ken. As a new gun owner, each and every one of them they treated me with respect and kindness and helped me greatly! My partner is an experienced gun owner and they were equally helpful and supportive to him. We have found our “home” for fire arms from now on! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend Central CT Arms!

Great job, amazing selection, and an owner and staff that really tries to put you into the right gun. Definitely check these guys out.

Great place, staff always helpful and friendly. Nice selection of firearms in stock. Recently ordered something online and they had it within a few days. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
