I thought for sure they'd be closing the Gander Mountain in my town, but it's apparently one of the few staying open. I don't know how. We have an Academy (soon to be two), a Cabela's, a couple of Dick's, and a couple of good local gun stores.

Gander Mountain is cheaper than BPS; at leàst in South Florida. No Academys down here, though.

There's a huge Dicks/Field & Stream store here in Lafayette, I don't see them being a permanent fixture. They have a pretty good selection but I find everything to be higher priced.


I've gone in there several times, but never buy anything. Academy FTW.

I don't see Dick's sporting Goods lasting much longer as well.


The only thing you get at Dick's is dicked.

I have shopped Gander many times and their hunting stuff is way overpriced. However, they run a lot of deals and sales on their fishing stuff and usually have a pretty good selection.

Dicks/F&S


I have been in their once, to look at firearms and the service sucked so bad I walked out in the middle of a conversation with the guy behind the desk. I wont be going back. Their prices suck too.

The only thing I buy at Dick's are CO2 refills and whenever they have a big sale on running shoes. But you can't beat the prices on CO2 and getting the 5th refill for free.

Their regular prices are totally nuts. I only shop there to take advantage of their price matching plus 10% deals.

Got a sweet price on my S&W M&P Shield and just last week on a pretty good spinning reel that academy had just put on sale.
