He’s the man, the myth, the hunting legend

Steve, along with his kids, opened River Valley Arms & Ammo because they were tired of seeing local sportsmen jump through hoops just to get the gear they need. Their mission was simple: make hunting, shooting, and all things outdoor more accessible to everyone in the community. And they’ve done just that. River Valley Arms & Ammo isn’t just a gun shop—it’s a one-stop shop for hunting supplies, shooting sports essentials, and a place where like-minded people come together to share their love for the outdoors.

The Outdoors is Still Home

Even in retirement, Steve is all about keeping his love for the outdoors alive. It’s his happy place, his sanctuary. Whether he’s out on a hunt or swapping stories at the shop, Steve’s always living the dream. When he’s not out in the wild, you’ll likely catch him at River Valley Arms & Ammo, making sure the next generation of hunters and adventurers has everything they need to head out and make memories of their own.

A Place for Gear, Stories, and Community

So, whether you’re here for top-quality gear, expert advice, or just a good hunting story, you’re always welcome at River Valley Arms & Ammo.
