Only reason posting here is because of all the hits the classifieds get. Just called Dick's Sporting Goods, to see if they had an AR I was looking at. Sales person Said Dick's Sporting Goods Across the nation, pulled all the AR's off the shelves because of the recent tragic shooting. I Will not buy a thing there again. They're not supporting our 2nd Amendment and are supporting a form of gun control. Don't get me wrong, what happened was as bad as it could get, and my prayers go out to all of those who lost a loved ones. Oh, opinion, is $.02 cents. Moderator's can move to where this needs to be, but thought before anyone supports Dick's Sporting Goods, they should know being the holidays and all. Shop somewhere else.
Many threads in the campfire!
Where there is a will, there is a way. If there were not firearms someone would just use another means to accomplish the same results....bombs, cars, knives, tools....the list is endless. The trouble is that the people making the laws are full blown morons... Here is a prime example of what we are dealing with in our West Virginia law makers. This is a direct quote from the West Virginia DNR Hunting Regulations handbook...this is an actual law and is in the booklet they give everyone...now tell me if this makes any logical sense to you????
...btw its not a typo, it has been printed like this since I began hunting years ago...
It is illegal to:
� shoot a firearm within 400 feet of a school or church,or
within 500 feet of a dwelling, or on or near a park or other
place where persons are gathered for pleasure.
they should look up the school bombing from I think 1926?? ish...a school employee rigged the school with explosives and killed 40+ children plus several adults....no guns involved!
... or look at what has happened on several occasions in China the last few years - school assualts carried out using swords or cleavers. Gee, that certainly makes the violence easier to swallow!

Andrew kehoe.
And he had another 500 pounds planted that never went off. Blew one side of the school and then blew a carload full of explosives as the kids ran out the front.
Spent months setting it up.

I as well. But OTOH,Dick's will survive without us. Look at Sport's Authority. They dropped all their hunting and shooting inventory and deal with just the libsuckers.

Sports Authority and Dicks are owned by the same corporation.

Does this mean that a group of friends would be breaking the law if we were 500 + feet from a building and our idea of pleasure was to shoot guns?
Crazy for sure, I understand not shooting in a park where there are people milling about, but the language is rather open to interpretation.
I have written a letter to Dicks about the same issue. My family and friends will NOT do business with them again. Period!!
Mt 2 cents is if u kill somebody with knive or gun or what ever you should be put to death . no long waits no setting on death row for years , If there is pictures or tapes or they have you at the location an people were killed an your there to bad for u
I liken it to Obama's threats to Syria if they use poison gas.
Apparently it's OK to kill 40,000 people if you shoot them one at a time, or blow them up a dozen at a time. You are crossing a line if you gas them a thousand at a time.
Go ahead send them your gun, you feel safer now?
How about the gougers out there who are overinflating the black rifle to make blood money.It is deplorable.

You never took Econ 101 did you?
I also heard today that Cheaper Than Dirt would no longer have internet gun sales.

their website claims they are updating and improving their process and will resume sales soon.
Bushmaster is supposedly going under, I guess all of their investors are pulling out. Don't understand that one, since they're owned by Remington.
From what I saw Bushmaster is owned by Ceberas who also own Remington and they are saying they're going to put the company up for sale.
Lots of stuff floating around out there that's for sure.
I also agree that any store that pulls their products won't be seeing my business again either. You're either with us or against us and like someone else said they'll survive without my dollars but at least I know they have a few less!
I was told this evening that Academy Stores here in San Antonio had pulled their AR15s also. Don't have any verification on that but hope to get by one here soon.
Walmart also pulled their AR15 from what I read in the print media.
Principle, is everything with Dick's and Walmart. Either your with us or not. The're all such morons (our government). If they'd have kept their mouths shut, sales would have been normal. They talk a form of gun control, sends the country into panic mode. Now there is not an AR to be found in the country. The whole country went on a frenzy. Now "We the People" own more AR's and AK's than before. I love it! I do pray for the family's, Pray they have the strength to endure.
Are you selling anything?

i will never go into a dicks store again. and i have bought very few guns from them but bunches of other stuff. they will continue to survive and thrive without me i'm sure. there are millions of overweight soccer moms out there who need another undersized pair of stretch pants to cram their fat asses into. but my money will not go into their coffers again.
I'll take your opinion. PM Sent with address.
When I first moved to Texas I took a part time job working at Dicks in the "Lodge" or hunting and fishing and truth be told, they dont make chit out of that section of the store their bread and butter is in apparel and footwear so I dont really think they care. While I worked there 90% of the gun and ammo sales were off sales in weekly flyers. I never buy anything there personally regarding hunting and fishing since I quit working there (and lost my employee discount....grin) as there prices arent very good unless its on a good sale and their selection is quite limited. Chit a lot of the time I could get better deals at Academy even after my employee discount!
