Sad day in a place I live now...

Many hunters nation wide will be hating this news.
Sad news. I've bought a lot of stuff over the years there. I remember the "yellow newspapers" that where full of turkey gear back in the day.
Wow that is truly a big bummer..I'd rather see bass pro shut down then wing supply.

Same here. I still have the first thing I bought from them, a Columbia duck hunting jacket.
I've been boycotting them for a few years.

That's great to hear!!
I used to visit Uncle Lee's whenever I was in the area. It was, on a grander scale, much like the old hardware stores that I remember as a kid. A little bit of everything and a lot of inventory (cash) setting on the showroom floor. It's hard to make money with that kind of store today, especially in such a small community.
It's the passing of another institution but when you see a major international conglomerate like ATK giving up (giving away) their entire consumer ammo, gun and sporting goods division, it's really no surprise.
Thanks,
