Texas online gun superstore Cheaper Than Dirt posted on Facebook today:
Cheaper Than Dirt! is suspending online sales of firearms effective immediately. We are reviewing our policy internally, and will continue to be the leader in the outdoor industry with our full line of gear and accessories.
They have also removed all firearms from their website.
Another business capitulates. We don't need gun grabbers when our own side will bend over and do whatever they want. I have spent thousands at CTD but will hold off on any further spending until they do the right thing. Tell them what you think on their Facebook page
businesses continue their financial suicide.
DAMMIT! They’ve received thousands of my dollars, and now they’re capitulating to the socialists? WTF?!
businesses continue their financial suicide.
They’ve always been ripoffs, and now this. Bastards!
They are getting slammed on facebook. Thousands upon thousands of upset customers posting.
F’ing hypocrites. They should just stop selling all firearm related stuff if they’re so concerned. See how long they’ll last. I hope this drives them out of business.
I was just over there, yep, looks like they bit the pillow.
They're acting guilty, so they must have done something illegal.
Is “it” starting?
Their website is SLOW! I have to imagine they’re getting bombarded there too.
Some of the best deals on ammo and parts are on their site. I’ve never purchased firearms from them, but if they cave on arms, they’ll cave when the libs come blasting them over magazines, etc.
Company Lawyers have intervened, no doubt.
No. Buying a weapon through CTD was the same as buying a weapon from a gun shop. You had to have the weapon shipped to an FFL vendor who supplied his license before it shipped. It was then up to the FFL transferor to make sure the purchase proceeded just like in a gun shop.
I’ve heard that this was a hack job by Anonymous. I certainly hope so
Doesn’t make a lot of sense since they still have to ship their guns to local FFLs.
Just sent them an email bidding adios if they choose to NOT support the 2nd amendment. Sometimes you have to be ready for the backlash. Not sure how much of their business was dependent on firearms sales in any case. Don’t think they’ve been doing firearms for that long.
Share the lead.
Hmm, I ordered ammo from them on Sunday and got an email this morning it has been shipped.
I’ve been in their Fort Worth store and it is enormous. Hard to believe they bowed down to Hussein and quit selling guns on line. If you bought one on line, you had to pick it up at a gun store that would check you out on their FBI connection, complete that paperwork.
Maybe people think you buy it on line and they send it through the mail directly to you. That doesn’t happen.
Way to go, CTD!
Class and Bud's are way better, anyway.
