If you find a GOOB GM, they do have some deep (up to 40% currently) discounts on clothing and other paraphernalia, but ammo and guns still only 5%, so not worth the trouble.

I received an email today from GM with notification of 10% off firearms and ammo as well as 30% of black powder guns and supplies.

Please translate that into every day English, I can't be the only one to not understand...

Thanks!

Sound like to me that oohrah's store is on the chopping block, and will not honor the national sales discounts. I also believe the GOOB should be BOGO,(buy one get one) but I could be mistaken about that. I agree they will have to drop prices significantly, to be competitive.

I agree, oorha's store is on the chopping block. GOOB (Going Out Of Business) stores only honor the discounts posted in the stores and in emails. The discounts are miniscule. Tha last I notice received for firearms and ammo was 5%. Their GOOB plan aligns with their regular marketing price points - which is why they're going out of business.

Looks like they will have a lot of inventory left to ship to their remaining stores. I'm not driving anywhere for only 5% off, their already way too high prices.

I don't know if they'll transfer firearms. I visited the Stafford location early on and the guy in the firearms department said they won't be transferring gun, stated they shipped out all they could, but he didn't elaborate. I don't know of any legal restriction that would prevent them from doing that and I know they ship used guns around when requested. It will be a long time before the discounts will approach normal sales prices at Academy and even Cabelas.
