RE: Bad Experience!!!!
I have never had any issues with Gander Mountain here in Madison. I have had them install tru glo optics on my Browning 22 pistol, and the gunsmith installed the scope on my new rifle I bought from them.
I did have an issue when I purchased my latest handgun, though. I went to two different Gander Mountain stores, and the first one, was told in a rather rude tone was what they had in the display was all they had. Nothing about maybe ordering the gun I wanted, or even checking other (Gander Mountain) store’s inventory for a gun I was looking for. The next Gander Mountain I bought the gun, but upon pickup, I waited very patiently for someone to go into the back and get the gun. I stood at the counter for a good 20 minutes I was waited on.
I will go back to Gander Mountain as they are really the only sporting goods store I can trust, and the clerks here in Madison, I do not really have a complaint about. They were very helpful, and courteous.
