About Bob’s Little Sport Shop
Bob’s Little Sport Shop is a family-owned firearms and sporting goods retailer that has operated from Glassboro, New Jersey, since 1965. Located at 316 Delsea Drive North, the business functions as a gun shop, hunting store, indoor pistol range, and training center, occupying a long-standing corner of Southern New Jersey’s retail landscape. Its inventory regularly lists new handgun and rifle arrivals - such as the BR1 Standard AR15, the CIA CANIK Mete MC9 Prime, and the Ruger RXM 9 mm - alongside holsters, magazines, and niche sporting gear including trap-shooting vests and accessories.
The storefront doubles as an instructional hub. It offers concealed-carry requalification courses, introductory firearms classes, and women-focused shooting instruction. The CCARE requalification course involves live-fire holster draws at graduated distances, with a proficiency standard that requires participants to demonstrate safe classroom holstering before advancing to the range. Visitors note that instructors break down stance, grip, and marksmanship in ways that help first-time shooters improve quickly. The indoor pistol range itself is described as clean and well-run, and rental firearms are available for customers who want to test a weapon before purchase.
Customer feedback points to a staff that emphasizes patience and product knowledge. Several visitors identify specific employees who walked them through New Jersey permit paperwork, background-check requirements, and firearm selection. First-time gun owners and experienced hunters alike report being listened to before being directed toward a specific purchase. The shop also stocks harder-to-find gear, and staff will source items not immediately on the shelf.
Range access operates on a membership model, with monthly tiers from $19.97 to $39.97 depending on hourly fees and guest privileges. The experience is tightly regulated by both store policy and state law: the website explicitly warns that CCARE requalification fees are non-refundable for cancellations inside 24 hours, and New Jersey’s Assembly Bill 1302 adds a state-mandated $1.50 transaction fee to every handgun ammunition purchase, registered through the NJ FARS system.
While most accounts describe a welcoming environment, the shop is not without friction. One reviewer reported an inability to reach anyone by telephone, and another described a tense post-range browsing encounter - though the owner responded by reviewing surveillance and disputing the interaction. The broader body of feedback, however, reflects a steady base of repeat clientele who cite the range, the instructional pipeline, and the depth of staff experience as reasons for returning.
