I see the photos and write up in the Daily Oklahoman today, 1200 W Memorial Rd, is that on the North side or South side of Memorial/turnpike? Intersection of Memorial and Western, according to Google Maps, just west of Western. Opening soon! South side, next to the St. Anthony's hospital and the golf driving range. |

As far as Dunham's, general trend of answers, not anything special when it comes to guns, prices are high, BUT they have some really good sales, special sale prices can be excellent, as an example they say grand openings and Black Friday sales can be very impressive, but every day prices are quite high.
Everyday prices HIGH Sale prices can be RED HOT! |

Not a fan of a Cabelas in OKC. Don't get me wrong, I love Cabelas and buy lots of stuff from them, but an OKC store means sales tax on all internet orders.
Kinda of sucks, just add about 8-9% to all your orders. (by the way, as the holder of a Black Cabelas VISA card, I get free shipping on most orders) |

About 5 minutes from my house, good thing I'm too poor to be concerned. Might be a good place to go shoot bows though since it's illegal to do in my yard.

and you don't deal with jam crammed parking lots and mouth breathing rednecks with their girlfriends that REALLY don't want to be there.
never mind the friendly, informative, attentive sales staff. |

Im more of, "hey its local. Ill just go and get it." I also hate ordering from the drive through at any Choke and Puke. |

It has a nice aquarium, you get to look at the fishies. Isn't that reason enough? I wonder how they feel about bowfishing....

Hate that it'll mean paying sales tax on online orders... probably means never ordering from them again in favor of Brownells, MidwayUSA, etc.
Moving down to the OKC area myself... wonder how different it'll be from a Bass Pro Shop. Any word on what sales they'll have for this weekend? |

Think of Bass Pro as the Dollar General of the outdoor world, while Cabelas is the Saks Fifth Avenue.
As long as there is a Cabelas within driving distance, I'll never go to a Bass Pro. |

I was thinking of going there today, but decided it would probably be too crowded, they talked about it on the radio this morning, said the line waiting for them to open went all the way around the building, they were giving gift cards to the first 500 through the door.
They had a flyer in yesterdays Oklahoman, but it was generalized and didn't really have that much specifics, I was disappointed in the flyer, I like to seen more products featured at grand opening prices, specifics not generalizations. |

Ran by today to check it out..
They have a great selection of handguns, AR-15s, I think I saw SCAR's and a pile of ammo. Lots of ammo. I will go to Cabalas now. 15 min down the turnpike from me. No more downtown for Basspro. |

I went yesterday... Gotta say, I felt a little underwhelmed. It seemed like a nicer BassPro to me. They had what looked to be a better selection but the whole place screamed of being a fancy BP, hell the fish tank is about half the size of BP. Ill patronize the place once in a while, the staff was a little friendlier but the prices seemed on par and even higher than same and comparable items at BP.
I wont go back for a while though, the crowd was retarded thick saturday (dummy me going only a few days after grand opening  )
I did like their assortment of guns and shooting items, I might screw around and get a long bow from there one day. At the end of the day though, I felt underwhelmed. |

Went yesterday as well. Way overpriced, especially for a grand opening. Tons of ammo lining the shelves, and I bet much of that wad there from Thursday. .223 PMC for 8.99 a box. I was hoping to see a good sale. They had "bulk" federal 5.56 in an mre style bag, .50 a round. I don't think it's much nicer than BP but it is a quick trip up the turnpike so ill prolly catch them for holiday shopping but I doubt ill go often if their prices don't compete.
Also, super busy
