Dicks to stop selling that nasty AR.

Posted on 02/28/2018 5:10:01 AM PST by Slingwing

Did Dicks make the corporate decision to stop selling the dreaded AR, high capacity mags and change the age to sell a firearm to 21 on their own or were they pressured? At any rate I will not be shopping at Dicks any longer over their stupid heart string tug decision. The AR has never killed a sole or creature without the assistance of a human to make the interaction function as designed.

They pulled this stunt before and I won’t step foot in their place because of it.

Walmart, Big5 & a couple guns and ammo stores are nearby.

Corporate virtue signalling, obviously.

Dick’s ads during the Olympics were over the top SJW drivel. Frik them. We don’t have one around here anyway.

Yes - and I think this announcement is only cover for the discontinuing of AR sales at Dicks-owned Field & Stream retail stores. They already quit selling ARs after Sandy Hook.

Good luck there DICKS with attempting to age limit the sale of a legal product by purchasers age (all other parameters met). AGE DISCRIMINATIONS WILL FLOOD YOUR HQ.

Can stores legally allow sales to adults of a certain age but not another age?

I’m referring to them only allowing gun sales to those over 21.

Wonder if this is allowed in all the states they operate in. I know age discrimination laws are usually for employment, but maybe some states have it for sales also

No problems, but the last time I went there their ammo prices were higher than Sportsman’s Warehouse.

“Our Dicks stopped carrying firearms at all several years ago. No reason for me to go to Dicks anymore.” “Our Dicks stopped carrying ~ ~”.... could have some fun with this 😉.
