Dick's is huge in the Northeast. I had dreamed some chains might do this, but I figured it would happen when pigs fly.Never heard of ‘em.
Dick’s, Major Gun Retailer, Will Stop Selling Assault-Style Rifles
One of the nation’s largest sports retailers, Dick’s Sporting Goods, said Wednesday morning it was immediately ending sales of all assault-style rifles in its stores.
The retailer also said that it would no longer sell high-capacity magazines and that it would not sell any gun to anyone under 21 years of age, regardless of local laws.
The announcement, made two weeks after the school shooting in Parkland, Fla., that killed 17 students and staff members, is one of the strongest stances taken by corporate America in the national gun debate. It also carries symbolic weight, coming from a prominent national gunseller.
I quite like Mr. Stack.
You've made my day, Witchit. Thanks.
We have them all over in Colorado. It's a smart financial move on their part, because they don't only sell guns, but fishing, hiking, camping, ski equipment, bikes and clothing which the younger generation will buy. Now they have a shop that agrees with them on guns--and Dick's sporting goods is the place they'll be headed too.
Bullshit ....they'll loose business because of the stupid pandering...Kmart sells guns they should save their business and sell more guns ..cater to real Americans ..Not the pandering, blithering, idiots
