Hang-on fixed position tree stands used for hunting, made in China and imported by Gander Mountain Co. of St. Paul, Minn, are being recalled.

The tree stands were sold at Gander Mountain stores between July 2008 and July 2009.

HOW MANY: About 13,000.

WHY: The clasp can open unexpectedly if the strap is not fastened correctly. This would cause the tree stand to fall. The company has received two reports of people falling, including reports of a broken pelvis and arm for one user.

ADDITONAL INFO: By phone at 888-542-6337; by Web at www.gandermountain.com or www.cpsc.gov.

Just want to make sure all our hunters are safe. If you have one of these stop using it and return it.
