U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., this week met with Dick’s Sporting Goods CEO Ed Stack and came away impressed with his moves to change store policy on gun sales.
The former San Francisco mayor and author of the long-expired federal assault weapon ban visited with Stack in the aftermath of the big box retailer’s adoption of a controversial policy banning gun sales to those under age 21 across their 700 locations nationwide, including 26 Field & Stream stores.
“I was delighted to meet Ed Stack, who I think is a great American,” Feinstein said. “He’s a supporter of the Second Amendment and a gun owner, but also understands that we need reasonable controls on who can buy guns and what guns they can buy.”
In addition to barring sales to adults under 21 — which has drawn at least two lawsuits and driven some employees away in protest– Stack solidified an earlier decision to stock modern sporting rifles such as AR-15s and magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds.
“We’ve promised that we’ll never put the assault-style weapon back in the Field and Stream stores or the Dick’s stores,” said Stack after his meeting with the California Democrat, before advocating to “fix” background checks and bring back one of Feinstein’s favored proposals.
“We feel that we should have high-capacity magazines banned,” Stack said.
Dick’s predicts this year could see a decrease in store sales as a result of the company’s new firearm policies.
Ed is a Dick.
so stop selling Guns and make Dicks a Gun Free Zone ,LOL
Ge is certainly a dick.
He.
I hate dick’s. They ruined Galyan’s by buying them.
“”””Dick’s predicts this year could see a decrease in store sales as a result of the company’s new firearm policies.””
Your shareholders will bitch and your competitors will laugh.
I rewrote this line, changing it from the Second to First Amendments. This is exactly how it reads. Still think this person believes in the Constitution with this stance ?
I have not spent one cent in this worthless store since they first stopped.selling black guns.
I spend my sizable dollars in stores that are of my political.persuesion or stay neutral.
Your stockholders should fire your sorry butt.

Cabellas and Basspro support this decision.
See you on the other side Dick!
Diane Rosenstein.
Now there is an endorsement every true outdoorsman is looking for.
Notice Ms. Feinstein......that they're all animals.
You're disgusting to think that ordinary guns (including an Ar-15) are meant for hunting humans.
Trump should have the BATF revoke the FFL of Dick’s (the entire chain) as well as Wal-Mart.
“Ed is a Dick.”
A prick with ears.
Dick’s CEO is a dick.
They have surely stepped on theirs.....
““I was delighted to meet Ed Stack, who I think is a great American,”
Feinstein never met a dick she didn’t like.
Dick’s will blame Trump and the NRA when they go out of business.
