Yes, LeBaron's lost their financing from whomever was fronting them money to keep their stock flowing.
It's tough to believe after all these years in business they couldn't carry themselves.
I will say however, that over the past few years they have really let their hunting/gun section (in the stores) slip - seems almost like they were embarrassed by it (keeping the ammo behind cabinet doors like cigarettes in the corner store).
Perhaps they forgot "who their market was" trying to cater to the tree hugging crowd, selling them high end outdoor clothing.
As a seller of firearms/ammo/hunting supplies (at work), I can say that there was a great number of items that I don't know how they sold them at the low prices they did - may have been another problem for them. You do have to make some profit to stay in business....

Sad to hear they are closing, we do not have enough stores like that, and they had decent prices.

Re: Le Baron closing it's doors!
That's a shame. I bought my first weapon there in 1972, a Reminton 870 Wingmaster 12 gauge.
Got me started and I've enjoyed hunting since then (44 years).
Part of my personal hunting heritage will be lost when they close their doors!!!

I had a job interview today, and when I passed the exit for St-Laurent I wanted to check out the deals, but my wallet kept yelling " no no no don't you dare" Lol

I know how you feel my wallet said the same thing but instead I went in to buy a Sakko 30-06 or 300 win, they were sold out in those calibers.Bullzeye wrote:I had a job interview today, and when I passed the exit for St-Laurent I wanted to check out the deals, but my wallet kept yelling " no no no don't you dare" Lol
