The Best Shop in the World?

[Royston]

As some of you may have known I have been away on business in Illinois USA.

I was looking for some "Sporting" goods and was recommeded to go to Bass Pro (www.basspro.com (http://www.basspro.com))

They sell all sorts of Hunting items, firearms, bows, knives, (Baxster would love it there;))
I was quite taken aback by the "hunting" culture, here are some pics

Innocent looking

Only in America could you have a shop thats so overly done for selling simple things for simple people!!

I WANT a camo sofa!

[Royston]

There were lots of weapons that kill animals/people

[bazil]

Sadly that shop would go out of business over here lol, looks epic though,

I have one of those camo style compound bows, had it on eBay 3 times and not even 1 bid or offer on it :(

Disgusting.

I've been to one of those, bought what they class as a utility/work knife made by Browning nearly got me arrested at St Pancras station whilst working there, Police officer only let me go as he had done his police training in Warrington and said he knew I needed where I lived, I thought he'd had one to many of his happy pills lol

[Southie]

Disgusting.

What... Royston bragging about going to America... I agree lol

super funnel......

he named the company in honour of ww2 german military so he's hardly going to sell much over here, is he...

[24sevenslacker]

i went to the one in Florida. my dad owns two fishing tackle shops accross here, one shelf probably has more gear than both his shops put together. they sell boats, quads, motocross bikes, fishing rods, shotguns, rifles.... it was unreal
