Cabelas score

[Gunhohulk]

I mean. do people literally walk into a Cabela's with a Triple-Lock and trade it in?

It seems like I read somewhere that Cabela's and other like them, go to gun shows and lowball walk-in buyers.

It just seems really odd to me that a large retailer would even have antique and curio guns sold to the public for liability reasons if nothing else.

A couple months ago cabelas listed a triple lock in .44 and a 5 screw pre-29 for 1500 and 1200 respectively. They didn’t last long. Then another one has several pre-29’s listed at 3500-5000 and they are still there.

Their pricing varies wildly but good deals are there to be had if you check the site frequently.

Cabela’s doesn’t check anything. Broken or not it’s put out for sale. Last year I bought an Ithaca 37. Couldn’t load a shell in it. Found the shell catch was in backwards. Had to tear the gun down and turn it around. Have seen a lot of nice guns at cabela’s all with high prices. The people working at mine has a big turnover and most of them don’t know jack s#%t about guns.
