Did you all go to the same store i did??? I got home about an hour ago from the thornton store and it was just busy, nothing crazy like the pictures you guys posted. Parked about 10 spots away from the front door. walked right up to the ammo section, huge selection and they said they had even more in the back for this weekend. Im sure they had more than a thousand boxes of various 556/223 on hand, plus every other calibre you could want. They had people just standing behind the firearms counter waiting to help people look at rifles and handguns. waited in line about 3 minutes to check out.

Overall I was not impressed, only sell cabelas brand stuff, very small selection of gear. It was funny that there were more people in the gun/ammo section than in the rest of the store combined.

Thanks to this thread letting me know there was parking I braved the Lone Tree store since it's close to work. The checkout line was also gone which is a much better piece of news to spread.

Well...it's an outdoors store. That's it. Even more confused by the pre-opening crowds now that I've seen it. It will be really nice to have around when it settles down. They really did choose a good location to fill a pretty big whole in the geographical market. The closest thing like it is Gander Mountain and thanks to traffic it's a no-go during the work week.

Stopped by after work and it wasn't very crowded at all

Actually you get free Chick Fil A for a year. I've done it twice.

Ah, my mistake! I thought it was just a free sammich. I don't like their stuff well enough to camp out and then eat it for a year though.

But AFA Cabela's - I'm glad to have one close to Parker for reloading supplies, but that's probably it. I sure ain't waiting in line for nothing! Did that in 1977 for Led Zeppelin tickets.

I went to the Thornton opening today. What a fluster F$%*. So many people. But had lots of m196 from 6 to 10 bucks a box. And some colts for 799. They had great stock of powder and primers for you reloading guys. Over all, it was a blast. Oh and talked to the firearm manager and transfer fee is 20 bucks, not like gander MNT for 70.

Just got back from Lone Tree. They got a crap ton of optics, but not so much in the way of rifle and especially pistol selection. Pretty disapponted. Pistol ammo shelves were just like any other GS, empty. Good supply of reloading accessories except projectiles. Same stuff OOS. They did have Lapua brass in .223, .308 and .338 Lapua which was kind of cool.

I totally don't understand folks camping out for the privilege of giving a retailer money. It makes me wonder how their time can be worth so little.

Me neither, I want and stood by the barricade in front of store for a hour just to check it out. Broncos cheerleaders, etc. then left.

Gonna wait until the craziness subsides; I'm pretty sure Cabela's will be there next week.
