Cabelas has some pretty good, but not really extraordinary deals. I'd take a pretty wild guess, and say they contract with Columbia Sports, to make their branded products in Asia. It seems likely that they contract or subcontract with SOMEBODY anyway... I've no idea really with whom... or who.

I visited their vast store in southern Michigan. Lots of stuffed animals and an interesting selection of firearms, that aren't available on their Web site. I'm thrilled to hear that BOTH Cabela's and a competitor will be opening stores soon in vicinity of Rutherford, NJ, quite near Manhattan. Recentlty, I got my best deal on a fishing rod from Dick's Sporting Goods.

I've not sprung for zip-off legs on pants, which result on shorts. Nor am I personally thrilled by the product you describe. But loads of people go for that stuff, maybe it makes some sense, and the price you quote is fairly reasonable, which is typical for Cabela's.

Does anybody remember the old Herter's catalogs? Those were an extremely interesting relic of Cold War America....and not completely unrelated to Cabela's.
