Dick’s, Major Gun Retailer, Will Stop Selling Assault-Style Rifles

One of the nation’s largest sports retailers, Dick’s Sporting Goods, said Wednesday morning it was immediately ending sales of all assault-style rifles in its stores.

The retailer also said that it would no longer sell high-capacity magazines and that it would not sell any gun to anyone under 21 years of age, regardless of local laws.

The announcement, made two weeks after the school shooting in Parkland, Fla., that killed 17 students and staff members, is one of the strongest stances taken by corporate America in the national gun debate. It also carries symbolic weight, coming from a prominent national gunseller.

I quite like Mr. Stack.

Someone under 21 should sue their ass right away.

For what? Not selling something they no longer want to sell? Oh....is this what the RW wants? To force businesses to sell certain stuff?

Dick's is actually a PA, a walk in store selling goods. If they deny a sale to a 20 year old, and their are age discrimination laws in place, they can be fined or sued.

The reason stores don't get in trouble not selling alcohol or tobacco (where the law applies) to under 21 people is because the law tells them not to.

And before you go to the cakes, I have always stated there should be no discrimination in actual Public Accommodations, involving point of sale transactions.

Show that age is in your state's PA laws.

LOL it's all coming to an end for the nra and their rank and file loons


Dick's Sporting Goods, the nation's largest sporting goods retailer, will stop selling assault-style weapons like the one used in the Parkland, Florida, high school shooting.
The company said it will also raise the minimum age for all gun sales to 21. Dick's (DKS) will not sell high-capacity magazines that allow shooters to fire far more rounds than traditional weapons without reloading, as well as other accessories used with weapons similar to the AR-15.


Dick's Sporting Goods will stop selling assault-style rifles

First of all the profit from firearm sales by retailers is quite tiny, they make most of their money off of accessories. Most firearms if taken care of will last longer than people live.
Firearms are part of the fabric of society. Dicks sporting goods is the largest sports retailer, not the largest firearms retailer. They can do what they want no one should give two shits about it.
BTW... an ar15 is just a sporting rifle nothing more nothing less... lol

Circling the drain, they are. Jumping on the SJW bandwagon is not a good idea, no matter what you see on the news. Apparently they didn't learn their lesson with Sports Authority. Whatcha gonna do?

Doesn't make a lot of sense to buy a firearm from a dealer intent on shooting themselves in the foot anyway ...

I made the mistake of going in one to look at golf clubs! Talk about over priced.

Someone should inform them that they didn't sell 'assault type' rifles before.

So, they would say they are operating as 'business as usual'.

That bit is explained in the article, which apparently you didn’t read.

You understand that there is no such thing as "assault style' rifles, right?

You understand that you are a lying son of a bitch? Any rifle that can be fired 30 times in under ten seconds is an assault rifle. And should not be sold to the general public. As has been proven in Vegas, Texas, and now Florida, lethal when a crazy gets their hands on it. And in the meantime, the NRA defends arming people with mental problems.

You're a lying ****.

An assault weapon is a fully automatic weapon.

Fucking moron.

Wrong....a fully automatic weapon is illegal. Assault weapons are also semi auto...

You can see the delusion and Down's in her face and eyeballs.

project much?

 

[Theowl32]

So people will buy from Academy or Bass Pro Shop.

watch, they will follow

Well now, that ends that. I am sure that is where all of those brown people from chicago buy their...."assault rifles."

Ooops, I forgot. The left dont care how many brown people are killed with guns by other brown people.

I have to admit. I dont give a shit either.
