Pete,
You are absolutely right about the Cabellas in Dundee. It is labeled as Michigans most popular tourist attraction. Some real good deer hunting land is now being developed in and around Dundee thanks to Cabellas success. But I often go there and try to wrestle with those two huge (two story high) fighting grizzlies on the front lawn. It sounds like you may have missed the large aquarium to the left of the front door entrance. If you look at the stock symbol "CAB" you will notice that they might be planning on building one store in each state. Because of the gun thingy, they might skip Caliphonia. I think that they are building a store in Reno. Now that they are a public traded stock, they are planning on building a number of stores.
They will frequently have a Luger or two in their show case. But I have yet to see a Luger that hasn't been at least touched up. The store seems to go more for pretty than original. The Lugers are usually pretty expensive too.
But for anyone visiting Michigan, its definately something to see. There are mounts of just about everything. Live trout streams and ponds. A 3-4 story indoor mountain with all sorts of full mounts of all sorts of animals. Almost a zoo.
