Well here I am again. 

I got an email from Sportsman's Outdoor Superstore explaining that there was another rebate source.  I checked there and submitted all the required information.  Hopefully I will still get my rebate for the TC Compass rifle.

Sorry for all the posts regarding this purchase and the rebate mix up.  Why they have two different ways to get a rebate for the same rifle is odd.  Why should active duty or retired veterans need to use a separate form for a rebate as the general public and for the same amount on the same rifle? 

I don't know, but at the price point it's a deal.  (if the rebate comes)  :-)

Once again, sorry for all the posts.
