I was in one 20 er so years ago. Very pricey as i recall. I can't remember if they had fire arms or not. All i remember seeing is apparel such as clothes for hunting and a few knives and boots.........

They sell rifles in the local Dunham's, and some ammo, but as Earl said they are heavy into clothing and other outdoor sports.

I visited one of their stores in Iowa a few years ago...

...and they had a variety of items available, not many firearms and ammo though.

Their products were reasonably priced and quality seemed good...

...and my wife and I purchased a few items from them that have held up well.

Now, if you're asking about Dunham hiking boots...

...they're outstanding.

We have one. They sell a variety of long guns, including a Barrett 50 BMG if you have the bucks. They sell a lot milsurp rifles and ammo, some new stuff. The guys in the store never seem to know what may be on the next truckload of guns, except no handguns will be sold in this store. Yes, they are a general sporting goods store and not just a hunting/fishing place. They have golf, paintball, shoes, boots, weight training, tennis, assorted roundball stuff, pointy ball stuff, running stuff, etc. This area is really big into sports, so they try to cover it all. There is an MC across the street, and then 3 or 4 local sports shops as well, plus Wally's.

There was one built in my home town probably 15 years ago. I went in a few times after it was built but like others have said, they were a bit pricey. They only sold long guns, but most were blackpowder or shot guns. I can remember once or twice going there to pick up something I needed for camping that no one else seemed to have. But that is about it.
