The Preparedness Depot

I highly recommend this store for your prepping and defense needs. It’s a clean store with friendly and knowledgeable staff. The selection is great and they can order much more than you see in the store. One of the things I like most about this store is that they purchase all their North American Rescue (NAR) products direct from the company. You can confidently buy your emergency medical supplies here without concern of getting those Chinese-made fakes.

Friendly and helpful staff, very close to my house. They should have their stocks up on the website earlier. Then i wouldnt have to run so far for gun parts. Overall good experience

Update: May 6, Ive been shopping here for the last few months. They have everything you need in such good price. If they dont have it, they will try to find it for me. 90% of my builds are from this store.

Out here at TPD with their amazing staff and owner picking up some new mags for my ar10 build! These guys helped me a lot build all my stuff recently. Highly recommend if ur around Dallas, GA area!
Edit: There was a racist ex-customer who talked to the owner (Wes) about me and my brother, two military aged Chinese guys (even though were not Chinese) and how we shouldn’t be able to get suppressors. Wes was not having that and kicked him out the door. So if there’s another customer that’s a little racist, just know Wes has got your back!

Everyone at the shop is very knowledgeable about firearms, emergency preparedness, and everything in between. Wes helped me custom build my new rifle, and they have plenty of parts to pick from if you want to go that route. Rifle ran great, was extremely accurate, and had all the attachments I wanted.

Very honest individuals who won’t sell you junk, and everything there is competitively priced.

This is the only gun shop in Atlanta I’ll be shopping at from here on out

I knew Wes back from the Tru-Prep days. From then to now, he’s still providing wonderful products to those in need of them. He and his staff are a fantastic team to provide service to the community. If you have the spare coin, spend it at a local shop. Support small businesses, especially this outstanding store.

Great insight for suppressor and suppressor mounting. Great selection. Good pricing. Guns they order for you come in quick. No ordering and letting it sit in the back for days. Before you transfer something give em a call. They beat all the prices on a gun without me even saying anything.

Wes and the preparedness depot have created something really special. They aren't a regular store in it for maximum profits. You can tell there is passion behind the company they are building. The staff is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and polite. The Prepardness depot carries a wide selection of gear, ranging from medical, to outdoors, to knives and guns. It's important to follow them on social media as well so you can be up to date on sales, and group events. Always stopping by when I'm around. They are awesome.

I can’t believe that I didn’t find this place sooner! Wes and the crew are great! They are attentive to your needs and always ready to help. Their product selection is great, they specialize in quality products at great prices. I encourage you to stop in and check them out, you won’t regret it!

Not only do I love The Preparedness Depot for the items they carry in the store, but I love their knowledgeable staff as well! I recently bought a suppressor from them, and they made the process very easy, with follow up emails to make sure I understood all of the steps to certify with the ATF. As someone who has never purchased a suppressor before, I was surprised at how many steps were involved and was very thankful at how easy The Preparedness Depot made it! Thank you all so much! You have a very loyal female customer here!! :) For anyone reading this who hasn’t been to The Preparedness Depot- check them out! You will find yourself becoming a loyal customer too!

"A Farewell Tribute to The Preparedness Depot: The Gold Standard in Customer Care and Expertise"

I've been a loyal patron of The Preparedness Depot for several years, and as I face the reality of moving across the country, my heart is heavy at the thought of leaving behind not just a store, but a cornerstone of my preparedness journey. It's rare to find a place that strikes the perfect balance between professionalism, expertise, and the kind of warm, patient customer service that makes every visit memorable. The Preparedness Depot embodies all of this and more.

From the very first day, walking into The Preparedness Depot felt like stepping into a realm of endless possibilities, backed by a team eager to guide you through every step of the way. Whether it was my endless barrage of questions, which I'm sure seemed quite moronic at times, or the more complex process of purchasing a suppressor, the staff approached every query with patience and clarity. Their thorough walk-through of the entire process, including fingerprinting and all necessary paperwork, made what could have been a daunting experience surprisingly smooth.

Unlike other establishments where post-sale support is virtually non-existent, The Preparedness Depot stands out as a beacon of how businesses should operate. The phrase "kick rocks" simply isn't in their vocabulary. They are committed to ensuring that each customer leaves not just satisfied but also confident in their purchase and the support that comes with it. This level of dedication is what sets them apart from the rest, particularly from places like TruPrep, where customer service seems to be an afterthought.

In a world where the personal touch has become increasingly rare, The Preparedness Depot harks back to a bygone era of business done right. It's a place where transactions are not just about making a sale, but about building a relationship and ensuring the customer's needs are met and exceeded.

As I prepare to move on, I do so with a heavy heart, knowing that finding another store that matches the caliber of The Preparedness Depot will be a formidable challenge. They are not just a store but a trusted resource and a community of knowledgeable, caring individuals. To the team at The Preparedness Depot: thank you for the years of exceptional service, advice, and support. You've set the bar immeasurably high and have truly made a difference in my life and the lives of many others. Here's to you, the real deal in a world that desperately needs more just like you.

Great shop with an owner that has a large wealth of knowledge in prepping and firearms. The store also has a Silencer Shop Kiosk that makes NFA/ATF paper work a breeze.

This place is great. Finally a gun store that has the knowledge, selection, and customer service. For the past 10 years I’ve been searching for a store like this.

Most stores similar to this one have employees that are jerks, know-it-alls, and will laugh at your questions. These guys will do everything they can to help YOU.

As a gun owner my entire life, I wanted to buy a suppressor but didn’t know where to start. They took the time to set up my account, select the suppressor best for my range of calibers and price range, and which muzzle device for each respective gun.

They have earned a long time customer!

Great place to buy guns and gear. Very knowledgeable and helpful plus good prices. I ended up buying a suppressor from them recently as they made it quite easy explaining all the steps involved walking me through the entire process. Thanks fellas!!

I purchased a Sharps Bros Lower online. I filled out the online paperwork for the transfer, and it was super easy. The lower arrived and they let me know it had arrived. Went in and no fuss did our legaly required garbage and bam had my lower. Really great people great to deal with. I would 100% recommend preparedness depot for there great selection of products 👍

Very knowledgeable staff. Helpful with suppressor purchase. Helped me remove a muzzle device that was stuck for free. Great store inventory as well. Highly recommend!

The genuine friendly atmosphere at The Preparedness Depot is great. The staff is awesome and helpful every time I purchase something. I own a Gun Safety Training business and they keep me stocked up on range ammo. I highly recommend them!

I recently purchased a suppressor through the efile system. Wes and all the counterguys and gals were very helpful and knowledgeable. They answered all my questions and made the process as smooth as possible. I've bought a lot of items from them over the years. It's a small shop with a lot to offer.

Great experience here! Really cool store! Will be back for sure!

I had very little idea what the process for purchasing a suppressor was until I went in and they walked me through every step, I live kinda far but it was worth it to drive out there because the people at Preparedness Depot are all very knowledgeable. Everything that they could do they did for me and anything they couldn’t do they explained exactly what I needed to do and if I had any questions they were able to answer them either in person or over the phone.

Cool laid back staff - lots of goodies close to home when you need more or an upgrade. Had a fun time with friends shopping, browsing and talking with the staff. Glad we have this store nearby - support these guys!!!
