Went to a Cabelas retail store today....

I like looking in the big stores. I usually buy online, but if the item is only a few bux more I will buy in store and have item then instead of my 2 day shipping that takes 4 days.

I do enjoy Cabela's, I have been to several all over the counrty.

The bright side is that Cabela's has Net sales that are attractive and small items I want. Now I can buy online and they will ship to store for free. For example, there was some SD ammo I wanted to try that can't be found local so I ordered just one box.

+1 on this! You can order reloading stuff like dies, bullets, etc. (not powder though) have it shipped to the store for free. I would suggest judging them by their vast online-catalog-ship-to-store-free capability than by any overpriced junk you actually see in the store.

I mean really, who wants a shirt that says "Cabelas" on it? AND ALL of their shirts say "Cabelas". ALL of them. Even the hats. It's madness I say.

I was down visiting my son yesterday and swung by the local Cabela's before the two hour drive home.

On the positive side, they have good fudge.

I'd read about....

I'd read about things people were getting from big box sports stores and was thinking that I only have a few LGSs around here. When I started visiting these stores and a few being built around here, I was really disappointed.

We aint got a Cabellas here but--just yesterday--I spotted a truck in a WM parking lot that had the Cabellas logo all over it.I wonder if that means they are thinking of scouting for a local here in CC to open up shot in??

Anyway,our Academy actually has some pretty good prices on their weapons. I can actually get some select pieces there cheaper than elsewhere. However, their half-inch black powder cannon--no dice--too derned expensive.

I look at all retailers the same. If they have what I want at what I am willing to pay, I buy it. Yea, some are to much $$$ for me so I move on.

No point getting ones undies all wadded up over what others are charging/paying as it is not my problem. If some idiots want to over pay for a firearm or safe or what not at Cabelas, so freakin what!!
