Gander mountain only has the original red / green strikefire listed on their sight.

I have called their CS line and the reps have no idea about what is in the warehouse and new products. I can get no answers when asking about availability for the red-only version.

Do you guys drop ship these for them or do they maintain an inventory? I would like to order from them, but I want the newer version.

Maybe they just have not updated their description? Do you still ship the original model?

If you could provide me with any insight I would appreciate it.

Gander only carries the red/green model.

We have several dealers here on ar15.com that carry that model, so I would check with them first.

Another option is to order directly from our website here: http://www.vortexoptics.com/product/vortex-strikefire-red-dot-scope-red-dot-only-ar15-mount
It will route your order to the nearest stocking dealer via the Shopatron service.

Let me know if you have any questions about that or need any other help. Thanks!

Sam, thanks for the quick response.

The reason I was looking at gander is that I have a gift card there and they run decent sales from time to time.

Maybe they will change their mind soon and start carrying it.

Oh, I see. Yeah, I'm not sure if they will be carrying that version soon or not. Typically the big box stores like Gander don't make changes very rapidly, so unfortunately you may be waiting a while.

Sorry about that. Maybe if they get enough customer requests they might decide to pick it up.
