Standbye for prices to go way up. Bass pros sale price is above sw daily prices on guns and optics

Could be worse. S W in my area. ********************* Maybe. If bass pro takes their management over. This areas store will actually start performing

When at Cabelas, I voiced my concerns of the less functional website and the lack of value that BPS has always had, compared to Cabelas. Every single employee has whispered that they too, HATE it. Every single one.
I guess Johnny Morris has to keep up with his expensive lodges and tastes.

Lets see if this can even happen. I'm sure there will be lawsuits on this purchase with the argument of a monopoly. It would be a very hard argument to prove in the short term. Time will tell.

They already bought it lock stock and barrel

Wish I would have had some Sportsman's stock.

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe it should be brought up to the Federal Trade Commission.

That sux I never liked Bass Pro and the redhead brand is junk

No, they just bought enough stock to take control of it. The FTC will be looking at this. They took a hard look at the Cabelas purchase. This one might put it over the top with the FTC.

Ruined my day hearing this. I actually liked SW... I can't stand the other two.

Always the best part of my trips out west

The closest store is over 300 miles from me, sucks for you all. Had one that was an hour drive, loved that place. Too much competition from Cabela's and BPS, so they had to close. Definitely cut my trips to Cabela's, Redhead gear is junk. Over priced and I can no longer find what I want there, jmo. Customer service was friendly, but I knew more about their stores then they did.

Only Gander Outdoors and Scheels left. I guess that's why Scheels opened the Texas store. Nice place too.

We better back sheels or we are screwed
