Title: Gun Sale at Gander. Poverty Sucks!
Post by: fightingquaker13 on May 27, 2010, 03:22:58 PM
I got an add in the paper that Gander was having a sale. Just your 20% off, no big deal. Still, I needed a few odds and ends, so off I go. What they didn't say is that they are having a gun blow out. At least at my local one, they are having a "scratch and dent" sale on their floor models. I was inches away from a LH .300 win mag stainless synthetic Tika (with rings) for $550. They had G-29 for $520, a boat load of ARs for $150 off and more. They even had a mini-14 tactical for $699. BARs for $575, a ton of lever guns and shotguns, including a really nice CZ 20 gauge SxS for less than $700 and Bushnell elite 3200s for $199 and it went on. More long guns than handguns, but it was from 15% to 40% off with 20%-30% being the biggest pile. Frankly, the dings weren't any worse than what I would probably do to them in the first year or so of ownership. If you live near a Gander Mountain, hie thy self down.  
FQ13 who is broke and bitter. Did I need that 300 win mag? Not even close. But boy that 3200 would have looked good on it. ;)
PS they also had some FN 45s (?) any one familiar with the rifle?

Our local Gander in ND is also having the same sale. Brings their prices down a bit, takes some of the edge off.

6.8Rem SPC ammo is still $40 for 20 rounds tho . . . . >:(
