I have been to only one Gander Mountain store and that was several years ago in St Cloud, Mn. I have been to Cabelas in Owatonna, Mn ,Sidney, Ne, Kearney, Ne, Mitchell, SD and the one in KC. I have also been to Bass Pro in Springfield, Mo. The Cabela stores are soo far above the other two mentioned stores in cleanlinless, variety of merchandise and helpfulness and knowledge by the clerks in the store. I was very, very disappointed in Bass Pro in Springfield. This is my opinion. I could go on some more on how Cabelas stand behind the quality of their merchandise if anyone is interested.
