Anybody been to a Gander Mountain store? I see they opened one up in Johnson City about an hour from my place. Are they really well stocked? I hate going to stores that don't have much or being told they "can order it". How big are they, and do they have a good selection of quality gear?

Qtip: last I saw, heard, read, Gander Mountain was one of those 'huge' places that is continually well stocked with just about everything a guy or gal could want.

If they are opening a store in Johnson City (just down the road from Elmira???) I would give it a couple of weeks until theya re in full swing before I went with intent to buy something. Nothing worse than walking into a place that has just opened and they still haven't gotten their shelves stocked yet. Just my two cents worth though. Mikey.

There is a Gander Mtn store 2 miles from my house...It is an incredible store...I still try to buy my stuff from the local business community but if I can't find it there then I will check out Gander. I go to the one in Buffalo...Actually it is located in Tonawanda but who the heck knows where that is. :shock:

I've been to the Gander Mountain in Rochester, nice store and well stocked, particularly compared to lameo Dick's. Bass Pro's, like in Auburn, are bigger and cooler in my limited experience.

I am talking to some buddies about going to the Cabelas in PA, that would be HEAVEN (okay the prices aren't that great, but Disneyworld isn't cheap either). :-)

AAAHHH! Cabela's!! Raging480 and I made the trip to Cabela's last spring. It is worth the trip just to see the store and everything in it. It took us almost 4 hours to get through the whole store. we even ate lunch right in the store. When you go, either bring your wallet or your self control. they have a lot of nice stuff.

Yeah a bunch of us are talking about staying in a hotel nearby overnight, but getting the trip in before deer season + the Syracuse gun show + getting ready for deer season + have to go to a wedding + spend some weekends with the girfriend before deer season to make sure she's still around afterwards :-) etc etc

I've been to the store in Johnson City. Not always the best prices but they were very well stocked. I think you would have to want something that is really off beat for them not to have it in stock.>John
