Our Dicks has stopped selling guns

[SinGin]

Stopped by today and they are getting out of the hunting business. Said they were out because there is a Bass Pro, Academy, and 9 other places around to buy guns

The only people Dicks has to blame is themselves .. no need for them to blame Bass Pro, Academy etc...

The only reason I still occasionally shop there is because I purchase stuff for work there and I use my rewards card when I make the purchases.  Otherwise I don't go in there anymore.

X2 on that

I'm hoping them and their sister, Field and Stream, go bankrupt and to be honest, Johnny Morris too. Bass Pro has ruined Cabelas

[Gooserbat]

I don't understand why people still shop at Dicks.  I've not been in one since the AR debacle.

I went into the dicks in daphne, AL today to see if they had started putting out any turkey stuff and the whole outdoor part of the store was empty. No guns, ammo, camo, nothin.

Guess it wasn't just about the AR now was it.

[Spitten and drummen]

Good ridence. I agree. Did it to themselves.

Having seen the inside of things in the firearm industry, i can accurately state that they are getting out of the hunting business for one reason and only one reason.  Because the CEO is a gun hating communist that killed their hunting business so that they could avoid selling guns.

Then, Dick's actually hired anti-gun lobbyists to attack YOUR fundamental right to self defense. 

As a result of all this, we boycotted them hard and their commie CEO then got his wish.  No more guns in Dick's stores. 

I will smile hugely when they go bankrupt.

Don't forget field and stream is really dicks outdoors

Their upper management made a COMMAND decision, a couple years ago, to stop selling any gun to anyone under 21 (which included rifles and shotguns).  Our local Dick's store had a 20 year old male working in that outdoor department at the time.  He could sell guns to customers over 21 but he couldn't buy one.  He resigned almost immediately and became employed at a local family owned outdoor store that didn't have the 21 rule.  I've never been a fan of Dick's.  Probably only been in their stores 3 times.

I may be wrong about this but I am pretty sure I read here that some if not all the Field and Stream portion of them was purchased by a pro hunting company.

Edit: They sold 8 of them to Sportsman's Warehouse

Good. Sounds like the whole chain needs to close. I'll support the outdoor stores that support what I believe in and that is owning lots of guns..
