basspro policy

[GLOCK.Perfection]

Does basspro still have / strictly enforce the policy of not removing trigger locks from their firearms?

I just got a ton of gift cards to basspro and then I remembered swearing I wouldn't buy a gun from them because you cant even test the trigger due to this policy.

Also, do they usually have the sig mosquito in stock?

I didnt see it when I was there about 1 week ago (but I have seen the mosquito there...) ... but I'd spend those gift cards at the food stand! I love those roasted nuts and fudge!!

Just buy ammo with them.

Buy the guns from someone reputable..

I do business with 2 or 3 shops that I enjoy.

the last couple of times i've been to bass pro (all within the last few weeks) the only sig's they've had were a p229 in 40 and a p232

Thier Firearms seemed kind of expensive compared to local gun shops

Firearms are one of the few products where you can often get a far better deal from the independent than the big box store. In fact, Bass Pro knows this and has reportedly excluded firearms from their price matching policy.

On just about anything else (consumer electronics, hardware, tools, etc.) the little guy can't compete against the big stores on price and can only stay in business if they offer additional benefits in the area of location and/or service.

I'm not sure why firearms are different. I can't imagine Bass Pro not being able to negotiate a better price than even the largest of independent shops. Maybe they do, but just insist on higher margin.

I'm not a fan of the basspro gun counter since my last incident.. I would rather go to an independent. I do like their fudge though..

I agree, at least 20-30 dollars more. They should be having a sale in August, like they do every year. Hopefully their inventory will be greater than it is now

+1 the guys at the firearms counter have been dickheads to me, so I go to look but not buy, maybe some "little" stuff, cleaning, ammo... and ALWAYS something from the food place!! (i wish we had a fat kid smiley)
