I understand a gun or two here or there depending upon what deals were still available, but what the hell are you guys going to do with a pile of Ruger Americans? They're not that interesting.  It looks like I'm trading mine plus $100 for a Beretta BL-3. |

In my area, the sale started this morning. It was not advertised and the employees did not know there would be a sale. The price was $199 for the RA rifles. They sold 5 by 11am and were sold out. Thanks for the heads up OP!

RAR in .308 or .30-06. Maybe even .243 if I can't find the others. I think there was a .243 in Randleman earlier today. Might try that tomorrow. I'm keeping my fingers crossed the sale starts soon at my local store. I'll hit it up every day over lunch this coming week to check.
I do appreciate your offer to keep your eyes open for me but honestly anything outside a 20-30 minute drive is out of reach for now. The demands of having 3 young kids... |

My brother and I picked up Marlin 1895's. Wow, what a steal! No RAR's, though. I was hoping for a .308. One of his buddies went to Wally World in Maine, and texted us saying they had one Guide model of the 1895, but that it was marked $589. I told him to get back in there and have them scan it. He did, and got it for $299. He's a happy dude in black bear country now, for sure. That's probably the perfect gun for bears up there, as thick as the trees are. They probably rarely get shots past 50 yards, and probably few even that far.
Thanks OP for the heads up. This is probably the best deal I'll ever see on a new gun. Btw, the walnut stock on mine has absolutely gorgeous wood grain. The forestock, though is so-so. My brother's stock matches the forestock on mine, and his forestock grain matches my stock. He offered to give me his forestock to finish the look. Are those hard to remove? --Edit, I just found that it is pretty easy. |

I found 1 store 2 counties away ( taking my sons to their mom) that had a Marlin 1895 on the shelf still. $589 price tag, guy tried scanning it, said it was $589. I dont think he actually scanned the tag since he was having issues getting the scanner to read. I did try to buy a Savage 93 22mag earlier in the day but the customer ahead of me bought the last one.
I'm not really interested in the RARs but I could use a $100 22mag and a $300 Marlin 1895.

Yes, they are. At least in Davenport. I went into two stores and asked the guy at the counter to verify the price by scanning.

Picked up my Marlin this morning. Only took about 30 minutes to process but they didn't have a manager onsite so I had to wait 45 more minutes. I had some other shopping to do so I took care of that.
Mine had a Mossberg (930?) shotgun with a second barrel for $299, a Mossberg 22 for $75, a savage 22 mag for $150 and a Savage 22LR for $99. I considered the other three, but I had recently bought another shotgun as well as 2 22LRs for myself and my son. Happy hunting! |

Went out to Royal Palm Beach Wal-Mart this morning. Only one near me that still sells guns. The lack of activity around the gun counter told me was probably a no go. Very few guns in the case. Had one Marlin marked down to $539.00. That was the scanned price. Cashier was very helpful. Said clearance prices were at the managers discretion. Asked me if I was the guy who called earlier. Clearly the word is out.
