And yes, you can buy guns and ammo with gift cards. If you're looking to buy ammo, the best thing to do is get >$300 worth at once, because for months now Academy has had a sale where if you buy over $300 in ammo, you get 10% off. Stack that with 20% off gift cards and it's a really solid deal. If you're military/first responder or a teacher, you can get another 10% off a few times a year when they run their "appreciation" events.
For guns, remember that Academy price matches Bass Pro/Cabelas, Scheels, and Sportsman's Warehouse nationwide, along with "any local retailer," then beats their price by 5%. So really the best thing to do is find something that's more expensive at Academy, price match it so you get another 5% off, then use your discounted gift cards to pay.
I typically wait and buy around this time since past years DG has had them at 20% off.
