Dicks sporting

[Virgil Co.C]

Well just stopped into Dicks , guess now there name matches there policy. Haven’t been in for a bit but guess it’s another company bowing to the agenda. They are doing away with there hunting section . I thought this was for a few stores because the one in Columbia hasn’t had a section in a long time. Stopped at Glenburnie store today and it has shrunk significantly and was told it will soon no longer exist. There was a little bit of ammo some guns on sale , maybe 50 to 100 off. But not much of anything . They like Walmart where convenient as far as getting some things , prices where decent. The Ar thing didn’t bug me to much because they never sold them in the store anyway. Guess this is good for the smaller shops which I do get ammo but feel condemned to shopping at Bass pro who in my mind is expensive. Guess more online shopping now which I don’t like . I want to see/ hold what I’m buying.I would think though if they where taking a financial hit they wouldn’t be doing what there doing. Minimal shopping there now if I can go somewhere else I will just for the satisfaction of not giving them any money.

I don't deal with them at all and rarely did to begin with. Much of their policy is virtue signaling...some individual stores may make a business decision based on local buying conditions or lack thereof. Still...I don't spend any money there. There are better places that give better service and I prefer locally owned places if possible.

Why they wanna be selling the same kind of stuff people can buy at Walmart and Amazon and have delivered is beyond me it's a strange business model in this day and age

Once you know what you’re buying, buying on line is far easier. I understand wanting to see and hold (and try on) things I buy. But ammo? No. I know what Federal 124 grain 9mm looks and feels like. And I’m sure you know your ammo well, too. You don’t need a store to touch and feel it. Of course, it’s quicker to buy at a store, if you need it today. On line ammo shops have good prices, but they don’t ship right away and they usually charge for shipping. Amazon Prime has spoiled me that way.

What gun owner actually shops at Dicks or Wal-Mart after their BS? Way too many businesses that deserve our support to shop at those virtue signaling stores.

$50-$100 off? That doesn’t sound like a bad sale. Might have to check this out

I wouldn’t go in if their shit was 90% off. Funny how so many gun owners will cut off their nose to spite their face to save a little in the short run and cost so much in the long run. Nobody was going to shop at Walmart until they blew out their remaining ammo....

LOL I was just about to say that!!!!!!

 

[DirtyHarry45]

If a corporation is anti gun but still wants to sell me a gun/ammo at a heavy discount...yes, I’ll take that discount, thank you very much. I know that my statement is an oversimplification of the overall situation but to Ammo Johns earlier point; when Walmart dropped prices everyone went there to stock up.

While I won't fault anyone for shopping there, I'd drive to ten Mom&Pop gun shops before I bought from a Big Box.

Might have to saunter over to the Dick's in Wheaton. First time in there, I was surprised to see guns.

I work next to a Dick's in central Maryland. Can confirm they're downsizing.

Since their firearm policy, I haven't been in a Dick's. As my granddaddy would state "frig them"

Bought a shotgun at Dick’s 4 years ago. Haven’t set foot in one ever since they started going all moms demanding action

Dicks sucks....or do I have it bass akwards....


It's the old vacuum cleaner conundrum.

 

[calicojack]

What do they sell now? Trampolines and whiffle balls? They cater to Soccer Moms who watch MSNBC.

All I know is Easton hasn’t been the same since BJs and Dicks came into town.
