I thought the same thing about the Gander Mountain Store's Web site. It's basically non existent. I talked to one of the guys at the new store who worked in the fishing dept and he said they are working on developing a new web site and I said that would be great. Businesses these days all need a good web site that shows the catalog of all their items. Hopefully they will continue to work on this and get one going
I took my Remington Model 660 222 into the gunsmith today and he's going to be putting on a new trigger for me. I was talking to the guys that worked in the gun area and they said that they have had a lot of requests for those lever action rifles in the last two days.
As for the holsters, they have a good selection of pistol holsters in the store. My neighbor and I were there today and my neighbor was looking at one of the smaller glocks that they sell. He and I were both looking at their holsters for that small glock. It was the #27 glock and in 40 cal. He's on the sheriffs dept and wanted a smaller gun for work and play. I saw some nice leather holsters.
The 870 is Remington's Pump Shotgun. They sold about 6 million of them over the last 30 years. It's a very popular shotgun. There are several versions of the 870 sold today. From the Express to the Magnum. And yes they hold about 5 or 6 rounds. But you can put a plug in them easily and get into compliance with the 3 round rule for waterfowl hunting.
I think that gun will shoot the 3 1/2" shells down to the 2 3/4" shells which I still have a few boxes of from the old days when I use to reload shotgun shells.
You should ask them about getting you one of them lever action rifles. They are pretty much in demand now that IN has allowed some rifles to be used for deer hunting. But you have to use the less powerful cartridges with them while deer hunting.
I saw a nice Savage in 243 caliber today and also a Remington 700 XXXX something in high caliber. I think it was a 243 also. That I was told is a very flat shooting rifle that would take care of them coyotes for you
I am getting setup to hunt coyotes this fall myself. Never really did it before successfully. But I have been working on the equipment to get the job done. From cover scents to blinds to getting the digital calls on my mp3 player. I even got a cheap caller with a remote setup.
I been reading a lot about predator hunting lately and trying to learn as much as I can. This spring I called in two coyotes and was watching them with my binoculars.
From what I hear tell a lot of game is being taken by the local coyotes. From ground hogs to the neighbors cat. They will go after little dogs as well. Lots of the local ranchers will put a Donkey out in the pasture with the sheep or get a big guard dog to try to keep the Alpha Male yotes away from their flocks. If you get one sheep killed it's usually because the nearby group's big male has developed a taste for lamb or new born calves.
Yotes are very territorial and if you kill the big male of the territory it will usually stop the farm animal predation for a short while. Until a new yote takes over that territory and discovers the farm animals.
I am told that Yotes are some of the smartest animals and they they are very hard to hunt. Especially if they are educated and have been around for more than one or two seasons.
You can get traps at the new Gander Mountain Store and catch those beavers. I saw all sizes and kind of animal traps from the leg traps to snares to live trap cages.
Hey Bassmanic1: I found the Dr Juice. Man they are selling that stuff in huge containers these days. Back when it first came out I bought it in tiny plastic bottles and It think each one had less than a few grams of the Dr Juice in it. Now they sell big huge bottles of the stuff. I picked up a bottle of the panfish and crappie spray type.
