Gander Mountain Deal, used Colt AR15 Used A2 Sporter HBAR

[runco]

First, I am not a fan of Gander Mountain, and I have not been in their store since Academy came to Knoxville.  However, I am still on their email deals though.  I see that they have this used Colt in the weekly flier, and honestly this is not a bad deal.  FYI I had been thinking about a Colt HBAR upper, just something to have, something to change out for targeting, and I was looking at a upper yesterday on GB for $100 more than this complete used rifle.  I also had been thinking about new Colt A4.  Its likely the K-town Gander does not have these used AR n stock, but the website says I can have it shipped to any FFL.  I may have to give this some serious thought.  First, do I buy one, and then to have it ship to the Gander Knoxville store or my local FFL. While I ponder, here is some direct info for you:

I did not know they sold used guns. I think I would rather have a new one or build my own if I can not handle it first , I am assuming they only have one or have they purchased a lot of these ....?

I assume they have a "lot" from somewhere.  The ad is not only the Knoxville store, but nationally.

Back in the '70's Gander Mountain had the best prices around and all the reloading supplies anyone could want. 

They succumbed to greed and went for what they felt was, what the market could bear.The bottom line is 

everything even at the cost of losing customers, which is what they did with me. I haven't been in their stores in

over 30 years.

They will ship their used guns to any store.

 

Had a friend looking for a very specific, and hard to find shotgun, she found it at Gander Mountain and had it shipped in. It was the only one in stock.

 

You can have them look up guns in their inventory and it will show used guns as well.

Gander had some used guns when they 1st opened up......99% of the used guns were as high as new guns.

Apples and Oranges.

Yup. Shriveled, mushy apples and bright, succulent oranges!

 

I get the collector / nostalgia thing - I've got an old Sporter myself.
