I went to my first Bass Pro Shops yesterday in Tulsa. What a cool, big building! I was hoping with all of those square feet that they would be a gun nut's dream. I was wrong.
They didn't have any reloading equipment, just a few overpriced powders and some lead shot. Their pistol selection was pitiful. They had 2 or 3 1911s, one SA and two SWs, if I recall. The remainder of their pistols were very predictable and very thin. They didn't have any ARs and very few used guns.
On the plus side, the staff was friendly and willing to help and they had a shooting arcade game that the kids and I really enjoyed. The big tank with the fish was cool too.
In short, I see myself visiting like I would a tourist attraction but I don't think I would ever buy anything there.
Anybody disagree?
