Sportsman's Warehouse Being acquired by Cabelas

[Bklynracer 1,265]

In my opinion More and more combining is tuning into a monopoly. Cabelas and Bass Pro, now their  buying Sportsman. 

Dicks stopped selling. Other smaller stores closed down. Looks like pretty soon all the big stores will be gone.

That sucks.  I love Sportsman’s Warehouse; much better than Cabelas.  They carry serious outdoor gear; Cabelas is a much more gentrified alternative.

Yes one less place that will ship ammo to NJ.

Some good news, they won't sell to NJ, That's why I said some, But at least Cabelas isn't buying all the big stores.

That is good news!  I like Sportsman's Warehouse much more than Cabelas or Bass Pro.   I only wish we had one near here.

Now that would be good news, they do have better stuff than  the other two, more variety too.

Thanks for sharing that.

I've make the drive to Cabela's every now and then when I'm bored, so maybe I'll check Sportsman's out next time instead...

Please visit the store and give us a report.

Not too far from Tanners, my go-to shop in Bucks County.

Thanks.  Since i saw your post with address.  I decided to drive out there today.  Since im off of work for the next two months or so.  Soo its just shy of 45 min drive.  Im about a stones throw of pa.  Ican describe it as cabelas without all the bs clothes and other stuff. I should of been at shotshow this week.  But im a cranky no bs guy. So as my wife put it.  You probably woulda been arrested.  I dont do the mask covid thing.  Anyway.  I bought today.  Yaktrax. A sifter for seperating media from casings.  A leather 5.11 belt.  10 rd magpul 700 long action 300 mag.  700 short action 10 rd mag. 1lb of 4350 imr. Magpul picitanny bipod fde.   I went there expecting to purchase nothing.  But to my surprise.  350$ later.  These were things i needed? Just so ya know. They had all sorts of current pistols many rifles.  Mostly hunting.  Whole section of bows and boots. The gay guy at the counter seemed kinda pissy.  But everyone else was very happy and helpful.  Make it a half day trip.  Right around the corner is tractor supply.  Harbor freight.  And to boot.  Tanners was on my way home. Tanners is about 10 mins away.  If you haven’t been there.  Its a must.   Soo. Yeah make a half day trip.  I was surprised what they had.  Like i said.  Its cabelas without 50 percent of the bs. They offer a 5% discount for military also.  Its worth the trip.

Bass Pro owns Cabelas and has ruined the brand. They will ruin Sportsman's Warehouse as well.

They would have, but this thread was resurrected on Monday because that deal fell apart.  Sportsman's Warehouse is remaining independent.
