Basalt Firearms

Basalt Firearms: Your Trusted Source for Colorado Firearms and Gun Safety Since 2010

​

Basalt Firearms opened its doors in 2010, proudly specializing in the sale of high-quality firearms and gun accessories. As a cornerstone of the Colorado firearms community, we’ve built our reputation on expert service and a commitment to responsible gun ownership. In 2014, we expanded our retail space—more than doubling in size—to offer an even wider range of firearms, ammunition, and accessories to meet the needs of every enthusiast.

​

With the extra space, we also introduced new and expanded product lines, including clothing and Bachmann model trains. As an exclusive retailer of Under Armour, we carry quality outdoor apparel to outfit you for your next hunting, fishing, or hiking trip—or to simply make sure you’re prepared and comfortable at the shooting range.

​

We’re honored to serve the Basalt and Roaring Fork Valley communities and to be part of Colorado’s proud tradition of firearms education and outdoor heritage. Thank you for trusting us with your firearms needs.
