    Bass pro San Bernardino

    We did the Family Disneyland trip last July and I talked the wife into taking a trip out to look at the Bass Pro shop In San Bernardino. I called an Uber Driver from Anaheim and the trip took about an hour and cost $40 american dollars each way. There seemed to be no bus that went that way and definitely Dont take a taxi.
    This place was a real treat for any hunter to have a wander around. It was a warehouse for hunting! They had a showroom with boats and quads etc, a rifle range, an archery range, and a fishing themed restaurant all inside. There was a lift in the centre of the shop that incorporated an aquarium with trout etc swimming around. The laser gun, wild west sideshow game where you shoot at targets for a dollar a gowns a hit with the kids.
    Ill post more photos if you guys are interested to see them..

    Love Bass Pro shops.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    They are fascinating stores to visit. The Las Vagas store is another goodie to check out.

    I used to work behind the gun counter of the Bass Pro Store in Calgary AB, Canada (2009/2010). It was set up surprisingly similar to the one you visited @allister. Great place to work on an OE!

    A mate was at a Bass Pro about 6 months back, a guy walked in and bought a Ford F250, trailer, 2 quads, guns and camo clothing and all that hunting crap that americans love. Was apparently about $200k of shopping all in one place

    I visited the bass pro shop in Las Vegas.

    And like everything in Vegas its big flashy and way over the top.

    Bloody impressed me no end.

    I bought lots of stuff at very reasonable prices too like padded rifle slings with quick detachable swivels $5usd each.

    Cheers

    After awhile you realise the Pig loves it.
