Dicks Sporting Goods store today. No airguns except pumpers.The same ones that Walmart carries, except these are special! They were $20-$30 more.They had a decent selection of Crosman pistols and a couple of Daisy pistols.They were very special too. :o I will say the service was great, and they had some good prices on a [very] few things. You may as well go to Cabelas. I'll stick with Wholesale Sports and Sportco!

5 months ago our Dicks here had a load of Gamo and Crosman springers and gas rams. Now all they have are daisys...:)

Our Dick's has a few extra guns you didn't mention like a couple Gamo and Remington springers. They have mostly 177 but I saw a tin or two of mainstream CPHP's in .22. I guess I should feel lucky although I don't have a need for any of what they do carry. They did have a couple BSA and Crosspoint scopes and even the laser/light combo I wanted to try out. I used their "$10 off $25 purchase" to get some shooting bags down to $15.
I saw some laser range finders in a case and some kid employee walked up and asked if I needed any help. I asked if he knew about the laser rangefinders and he acted indignant and said of course he did. So I said 'which one is the cheapest and does it work any good?' to which that was too much for him and he just stood their looking dumb.

I've found that our local DICKS can be hit or miss..... one time they will have Crosman Nitros, Remingtons, and Gamos, go in 6 or 8 weeks later and you have to look real hard to even find a daisey pumper..... I wouldn't give up on them yet but I wouldn't always count on them to have something when you want it..... one common factor seems to be a poor pellet selection........
