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

I have six more builds on order right now including two AR pistols.
I built one of those. I recommend you add a Flash Can muzzle device or you will go deaf and blind.
:lol: :beer:

Or, hopefully you have it chambered in .300 blackout. You can get subsonic ammo that completely burns up all the powder before the bullet leaves the barrel, unlike the 5.56/.223 (flame thrower from hell).

Haha...you’ve built a few I see.
Yes, definitely....300BLK and muzzles for these 9”
 
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.

Do they really? EVERY gun control idiot I've seen on the media had /zero/ clue what any of this shit means. They say crap like "scary big gun" and "military grade" and when you tell them that like 99% of the guns out there in America today are semi-automatic, or that fully automatic guns have been banned for ages, or that there is no such thing as an "assault weapon" - they're clueless.

Fuck even NBC can't figure out the difference;

And yet, we're expected to believe that these same dumbasses are "only" going after the "assault rifles" oh wait no the "machine guns" wait no the "AR-15"

Shall we take a guess at how many dumbasses, who ya'll think should be dictating policy and taking away American rights, believe that the AR stands for "Assault Rifle"?
Well, what would you propose we call military style civilian knock offs, the same as an M-16 except for the full auto option? Tell me the name and I'll use it.
and yet it isn't that same . You thinking it looks scary isn't cause to trample on my rights. Get over yourself you are not that important. While we are at it your ignorance on this topic is astounding. The fact that you try and debate when it is obvious you know nothing about the topic borders on delusional
Can't think of a good name for them, huh? You could have simply not responded, then. Your talking point insults are old and tired and have nothing whatever to do with my posts.
 
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.

The Dems just proposed a law that would ban all semi-autos except a few rifles.
The Republicans in the House added a poison pill to the FIX NICS bill. That can't pass the senate. What is wrong with having a background check actually include all the background it is supposed to? What does CCW reciprocity have to do with it? Why should one state have its laws not followed because a visitor from another state comes there? A person from Colorado can't go to Jersey and smoke dope recreationally just because it's legal in Colorado. He isn't IN Colorado.

The Republicans are terrified of having to vote on any gun legislation. They will wiggle out of it any way they can.
we already have that.
You already have what?
Background checks thanks to the NRA
If not all the information that is supposed to be in it is there, shouldn't it be revisited to make sure everyone that is supposed to report, is?
 
Looks like im going to bass pro shop for my fishing line saturday instead of dicks.
Its almost 40 minutes farther away but at least they arent knee jerking faggots

It is the corporation choice to stop selling certain things and I support theor right to do so than have the government pass laws that are worthless.

So I really see no problem with Dick's choice to stop selling certain product.

Just my opinion.

The problem is in some States you can't discriminate in a PA due to age. Guns are not banned for people under 21 in those States, so Dicks is breaking PA laws there.
 
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.

Dunno how prominent he is. I'm sure he's a fine fellow, but he makes stupid business decisions (see above) based upon the emotional reactions of others.

He probably doesn't sell a lot of "assault rifles" (whatever those are), but I'd wager he just alienated a good number of general customers.

CVS Pharmacies in this region stopped selling cigarettes awhile back, in a noble attempt to appear noble and stuff.

People just went to the 7-11 half a block down.

It is the company choice and prefer the companies regulate themselves than have more government laws that do not work...

In today time people can order most stuff online, so does it matter?

Someone under 21 should sue their ass right away.
Obviously most conservatives are truly this ignorant of the law.

I've been hunting for 12 years now, since I was 22. My teachers, thee older gents from around here, are the best. I've met hundreds of hunters and sportsmen. They use my land and rent my barn. Outside of a few clowns from Illinois, no serious sportsman who comes here hunts with an assault type rifle. Those are for scared urban people.

Then let the lawyers of that state deal with it. I believe if they are breaking the law then they will have to make the choice of either selling to those 18 or above or don't sell firearms at all.

I do agree with their right not to sell certain firearms which is their choice but you are correct they can not stop an 18 year old from buying a product if it is not against the law and they sell it.
 
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.....
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.

The mechanism is exactly the same for almost all semi-automatic rifles.

Know what you are talking about before you get a position on something.
Then why are so many people screeching about possibly needing to buy one of these "exact same" other rifles?

It's not the rifle, it's the simple fact that

1) The law to ban "scary rifles" won't help anything
2) The actual law being proposed by democrats would ban all semi-auto weapons, despite their pleas that they don't want to "ban all guns"
3) That people who support RKBA simply don't trust anyone who can't get the technical things right, or won't even try
4) That people who support RKBA simply don't trust gun controllers period, mostly due to things like item 2.
Marty, I have been asking this same simple question for days and no one has answered me. Including you.
Can you answer it, please?

Why do some people prefer a Corvette over say a BMW?

So you want a new law that will magically make the government do what the old law says? Lmao

Quick Google search reveals six places within 15 miles that will happily sell me an AR 15

Hey, they can do whatever they want. They just have to face the consequences.
 
You understand that there is no such thing as "assault style' rifles, right?

It’s been posted here....a Mini 14 and an AR are essentially the same rifle...the 14 is often used for hunting.
One has tattoos and piercings, it’s appearance scares pussies....the other is a computer nerd so no one pays attention to it.
Both equally capable.

Whats an "assault ype" weapon

Dick's is still a private business.
I guess you could sue for equal protection under the law ... But I doubt it would make that much of a difference.

I would rather move away from the government's ability to regulate private business ...
Not necessarily support precedence for enforcing their will on private business.

Let Dick's hang themselves ... Or do what they think is best.
It's their business ... And you don't have to do business with them.
