History

Lakes Trading Company was started as a small local gun shop. Ben Oliver-Owner always had a dream of being able to make a career out of something he loved and it became a reality in 2011 when he opened Lakes Trading Company. Over the past two and half years, the company has grown from a small shop that was operated out of a converted kitchen, to a live-fire 10 lane-25 yard indoor shooting facility. The new shop and range now occupy over 7000 square feet with a showroom and classroom of over 2000 square feet. Lakes Trading is able to offer competitive prices on new and used firearms and accessories along with services including consignment, online auctions and FFL transfers just to name a few. Our goal is promote education, safety, and a family-friendly environment for everyone to enjoy. Please stop and chat for awhile, whether you are looking for a new gun, a place to sell your unwanted guns, or just looking for information, we would love to talk with you and help in anyway we can.

Great local place with knowledgeable non-condescending staff (which is a rarity in this type of establishment). Great classes. Affordable lane rentals.
