i really don't understand why so many formerly great and iconic brand retailers have to cave to the conglomerates and hedge funds. if they bob and weave a bit, which would not be easy, maybe a reset is possible.
but who knows, maybe it opens the door for start ups setting themselves apart
Its all about ownership. The founders get offered some serious coin for their business, they gotta retire some day right? And they're taken over by huge holding companies that don't know or care about hunting, shooting or the lifestyle. They hire efficiency experts to stream line everything in to buy and selling junk the more with their logo the better. Race to the bottom.
