Again? Didn’t they take this virtue-signaling stance before to their detriment?

[Sasparilla]

Dicks stopped selling the dreaded sport utility rifles quite a while ago. Bet you can still get 5.56 there.

[snoringbear]

Who cares? I haven’t been in Dicks store in at least ten years. And, I’m for sure not going to start shopping there now.

[CAluvdubya]

Dick's is at it again.

I believe they were the ones to stop selling ammo or something after one of the shootings.

This is not a surprise and won't help their sales. The people that they're catering to wouldn't have bought a scary, evil, black gun to begin with!

[mn-bush-man]

Bye, Dicks.

I’m surprised Academy sports hasn’t put them clean out of business yet. A bit over priced IMO.

Geez.

"...We said, ‘We need to do something,'" Stack, whose father, Dick, started the business 70 years ago, explained. "And we’re taking these guns out of all of our stores permanently."

[Skywise]

I’m done with them.

[KingLudd]

I never cared for dicks.

[Hot Tabasco]

I wouldn’t purchase any firearm from a sporting goods store anyway. Batting gloves and sweat pants, yes, but no firearms......

[southernindymom]

We didn’t shop there anyway. Now we have another reason to not shop there.

[southernindymom]

Living up to their name.

[caver]

Dicks sucks.

[indthkr]

As a general rule I try to avoid buying sporting goods at Dick's.

Most of their gear is cheap Chinese-made s#!t.

Dicks stopped selling ARs years ago
...and I stopped shopping there.

One would think that Dick’s would have noticed what happened to J.C. Penney when they blew off their true customers and went for the pervs. Now Dick’s is doing the same, and siding with the gun grabbers. So, that’s it for Dick’s. Let them starve!

[FlipWilson]

Great move by Dicks. I mean, it’s not like a big box sporting goods retail franchise is in trouble or anything. They are the only show in town. Where else would one get shoes and other sports equipment in this age of the internet? Where, I wonder?

So yes, Sicks can afford to alienate over half its customers (cause we know how those snowflakes love physical fitness). Great move!!!

I have a Sportsman’s Warehouse, Academy, and Palmetto State Armory nearby. Why would I go to Dick’s?
