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

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

So, they would say they are operating as 'business as usual'.
Good point. The correct description is "military style assault weapons."
 
I wonder, does anyone know anyone that has ever bought a gun from Dicks?

They do have a good selection of compound bows ...
If the Duke boys are looking to get ripped off at the register and having their data sold to the highest bidder ... :dunno:

.

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

Would never get new golf clubs - last years top models can be had for 1/4 of the price on fleabay.
 
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.
Playing the "That Isn't What You Call It" game is getting old. Everyone knows what we're talking about. I agree we need a word that describes it more accurately than "weapons of mass destruction," but until that happens, you might do better addressing the actual issue rather than playing semantics games that won't get you anywhere.

Your side can't say "ban semi-auto weapons" because you know it will never happen. so you make up soooper sceeery words for them, and hope you fool enough people to get legislation passed.

The Democratic control proposal would ban all semi-autos, even handguns.

BUT BUT BUT I THOUGHT THE DEMS WEREN'T GOING TO BAN GUNS!!!

either you are all liars, all idiots, or somewhere in between.
I am not saying "ban all semi-auto weapons" because it has been explained to me that most guns in this country, whether rifle or handgun, are semiauto's in the sense that a bullet enters the chamber as soon as one has been fired. The argument is not against all guns, so saying "all semi-auto's" wouldn't be accurate.

They’ve never had much of a selection for firearm enthusiasts... Plenty of other stores will fill the little void they left. Lol
 
Never heard of ‘em.

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.

Dick's is huge in the Northeast. I had dreamed some chains might do this, but I figured it would happen when pigs fly.
You've made my day, Witchit. Thanks.


You are not very bright...are you? Any semi automatic civilian rifle they sell is the exact same rifle as the AR-15......the only difference is what design covers the firing mechanism..........

I hope they fail.....

Then why in the world are you afraid of the AR-15....which is the exact same gun as all the other guns you just said you don't want to ban?.....your response is not rational or thought out.....

"Military-style knock offs" might work, since that is what they are.
Of course, the militia men will be all over you. They think they're going to shoot down the government's missiles, when they attack us, with their AR's.

Very true. I am always a year or two behind on drivers and do not change my irons all that often. Though I might be due this spring for a new set!

The AR is not "the exact same gun" as the others and your response is the one that is irrational. I'm not playing that game with you anymore, Guy. You know weapons and you know why people buy them and why mass shooters choose them most of the time. So telling me I'm irrational and not thinking doesn't fly.
 
Progressives are not much into sport, they much prefer participation trophies for everybody
 
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.

lol... Nobody buys from that overpriced seller anyway.

And my NRA rank and file is growing by the day

-Geaux

Agree. They are big-time over-priced. Not just on weapons
but on accessories and apparel.

And for as large as their locations are...they sell very little local
or state team apparel. (Now that may differ by location, I don't know)

I haven't seen one with more than one or two racks of college stuff on
it. 'Course, I don't go in there anymore, so maybe they changed.

They are not rifles.

They are carbines.

Or you can call them assault weapons, like Adolf did -- Sturmgewehr.

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.

Not NY, but 19 states and D.C.
