Since then, Field and Stream has opened a couple stores near me. This is Dick's trying to play to the hunting and fishing crowd, and they come off as sort of BassPro-lite. The prices are outrageous.
Those F&S stores do have an enormous selection... of things I have no use for, no interest in, or both. The gun counter is sizeable. The number of associates and their competence is not.
The last gun store I entered that was truly, "in business" was Whittaker's.
