Still don't care. The CEO is an anti-2A idiot.

And for this reason they can stick it.
These CEO types should shut their pie holes and just attend to business. They are their own worst enemy's.

"Anybody optimistic that the prices will be better on guns?

Nope. Don't care. They were not just overpriced on guns, they were overpriced on everything in the store.
IF (big if) you found something on sale with 25%+ off, then you were getting close.

I would rather support my fellow INGOers and buy in the classifieds or support my LGS than the big box stores anyways.

I agree in principal BUT... Supporting some of my fellow INGO'ers cost more than buying at Gander.

I was only in there maybe twice when I was looking for something specific that I could not find....I seriously doubt I will be visiting if they reopen....Seems overpriced to me and the employees in the firearms section were not overly friendly or helpful...pass

I Stand with CM on this. The CEO is not only Anti 2A, if you like the President, he doesn't want your business! I'll oblige him.

Don't care about the price or the place because of this. Will never set foot in one again.

It's worth it.

On the Earth Adventures topic, I think it's genuinely one of Fort Wayne's best kept secrets.

Was just talking with the owner this week. Seems as though the secret part is a hurdle to overcome. Great shop and if you don't see what you want they can order it.

They will also do FFL transfers.

I wasn't suggesting to overpay, I just prefer to give my $$ to the little guys when it makes sense. Quite honestly though, I have had a good experiences buying on the INGO classifieds.
My last two acquisitions were from there and the prices were below what I could find anywhere else including GunBroker.

As for high prices on the INGO Classifieds...that is another thread altogether. Caveat Emptor!

 

[CallSign Snafu]

I wonder if they will still have those giant climbing walls in the middle of the store? Be a good place for drop tests on firearms you might want to buy, hehe.

I saw this last week... posted it over here.

The Greenfield Gander was always good for lures, belts, rimfire scope rings, $10 rifle cases, etc etc...but firearms? laughable. No way.

 

[EricG]

Meh...Ive always found GM to be hard to shop at. At least the couple Ive been to. Im not sure whos worse, GM or Cabelas.

About the only great deals that I got at the old Gouger Mountain was when they were going out of business and had 60% off on ammo. I doubt the new place will be much better than the old.

I seldom bought ammo at GM unless they had .22 CCI MiniMags for $7.50 per hundred and I bought a 1,000 rd case of Federal LC .556 for $270 on sale at the Greenwood store.
I'll give them this though... They had about every caliber known to man but you sure had to pay for it.

 

[kscessnadriver]

Much like Cabela's, I would on occasion find a good price on a used gun and pick it up. But never buy new there, for sure.

 

[FlatSixShooter]

I went past the old GM at Castleton today and I think the street side sign was changed to "Gander Outdoors" or something other than GM.
