Scheels Chandler Opened Today

[smithers599]

There are trigger locks on the rifles, but locks only stop honest people. I think within the year there will be a cage around all the rifles, unfortunately. In general, people tend to suck.

OK, I feel better knowing that there are trigger locks on the rifles. There may be scoping, but at least no trigger-pulling. That's a good thing.

"Scoping" is also known as "pointing a rifle at a person". Violates every single firearms safety rule there is.

And before the "but it's not loaded" comments...EVERY firearm is loaded. That's rule #1.

Maybe the employees are hyper vigilant about it now, but that's only going to last so long before complacency kicks in.

Scheels has had rifles in open racks for decades.

I’d be more worried about theft than anything.

I was so excited they opened I went there on opening day. Sooooo crowded. Been in one a handful of times in Utah and loved how they had things that were in short supply elsewhere and the prices were not bad. They were pretty well stocked and they didnt have much on sale gun wise that I thought was amazing. But they did have plenty of primers, powders, bullets, ammo, guns, and all around gun and reloading stuff. They even had a decent amount of Dillon stuff there. Primers were cheaper than I saw at Sportsmans or Cabelas from a few months ago as well. And plenty to pick from. I even picked up some large rifle mag primers which seem to be a little on the tough side to find lately. They also had a bunch of Retumbo which seems to be scarce on the shelves. The other thing I noticed is that they had a lot more clothing than the Utah one. Maybe its cause they are a big revenue generator. They also didnt have the cool statues inside but they did have some outside. Overall I love the store because they have a lot of things that most of the other stores dont. Its like a better Cabelas, Sportsmans, Dicks, and big 5 all smashed into one place.

Dicks does not deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Scheels, Basspro/ Cabelas.

If you are into Dicks, it is a store to go to though.

Not my pictures. Pulled these off of the Cast Boolits forum. But these are pics from inside the new Chandler Scheels' from earlier today. Seems the reloading supplies are well stocked. Haven't seen that many primers in one location in a coon's age.
