GANDER MOUNTAIN INC

Where do I start with a well known company. They do have a large assortment of products in many different sports. I am a competitive shooter and I stopped by to see if they had any rim fire ammo. Like most other places they where out but that is not why I was disappointed. The staff was professional in appearance but as soon as they started to talk about firearms it was clear that they had no training. Trying to spread roomers that they heard at a gun show with no facts to back it up. The prices where so high I can understand why they have so much inventory. The same pistol I purchased just a couple days ago for $349 from their competitor they wanted $559. OK I will move onto the clothing. I looked around fo at least 30 minutes and I could not find anyone to help me. The price on most items seemed to be fair but not great. If I have time to burn thats the place to visit but never get the money out because there are much better places to go in town.

I have been an avid sports and target shooter for decades. Looking at a firearm in Gander Mountain, Dayton, OH the clerk told me that Ruger (and other) manufacturers do not guarantee their product. This is not true. The only reason for this was to sell me an extended warranty. In fact, Ruger has one of the best warranties in the industry. Their warranty is explained on the back of the owners manual. The way they implement their warranty is not easily understood by those who have not been involved with shooting sports in the past. Nevertheless, all firearm manufacturers guarantee their products. This is not like buying a television or just another appliance. I spoke with the manager and he refused to acknowledge or even check this out. I hope to help others who could be taken in by this outright lie. It is easy to check, simply call Ruger Firearms.
