Gander, BPS, Cabelas, or Dicks?

They finally opened a Dick's here this month. I am hoping to make a drive up there Friday.
I would stongly urge all to check out their local Mom and Pop type shops. Admitedly, you won't find th esame sales, but they are usually very close in price.
My reason is not that they have a bigger selection, nor are they always the most affordable, but if it is only a 2-3% difference, I will almost always choose the smaller stores. The big chains don't need my money to stimulate the economy nearly as much as the smaller stores.
Now that I am off my soapbox.....

Of the one's listed, I have to go with BPS. Not much hunting out this way, and BPS is at least drivable for me. (120 miles away)
