No more Field & Stream/DSG. Period. Done with them, unless they reverse this horse chit Field & Stream is not related to Dick's Sporting Goods at all Dick's Sporting Goods owns a brand called Field & Stream Incorrect,"Field & Stream is a retailer of hunting, fishing, camping, and related outdoor recreation merchandise that is a subsidiary of Dick's Sporting Goods. Despite its name, the retailer has no association with Field & Stream magazine, the seminal outdoor publication, founded in 1895. There is widespread public confusion about this point, and the retailer has done little to dispel the mix-up. "On February 28, 2018, Field & Stream announced that it will no longer sell assault-style rifles, also known as modern sporting rifles; and it will no longer sell high-capacity magazines. Field & Stream said it would no longer sell firearms to anyone under the age of 21. Field & Stream said it has never, and will never, sell bump fire stocks that allow a person to modify a semi-automatic firearm to fire more rapidly.[10]"

I stopped shopping there in 2012 after their last round of idiocy, was more insulted by the hypocrisy of them opening F&S stores and selling the items there. I have a long memory and have never gone back into their stores.
I can't leave them again.

Does anyone ever actually buy anything at Dick's? I used to drop close to 1k per year on fishing gear, etc. When they pulled their stunt after Sandy Hook I have not spent a dime.

I could appreciate their right as a company to not sell a certain product. But when they issue a statement advocating for the restriction of my 2nd amendment rights, Fugg em. I liked the field and stream store in Birmingham and their ladder stands are the best value I've found. I will not be shopping there again. I hope ALL hunters will follow suit and put them out of business. This is my thinking too ^^^ ... On a separate issue, the first the ATF tells a new FFL or an old one for that matter I would assume, is we have the right to refuse a sale to anyone for any reason...If you came in wearing an AU T shirt and I felt that indicated you were mentally unstable (  ) I could refuse to sell/transfer a firearm to you and there is nothing you could do about it.... I didn't realize who I quoted when I posed that scenario, but it fit so I went with it ...

They also tweeted out a list of “common sense” gun laws they would like to see implimented.
Ban assault weapon
Ban high capacity magazines
Ban bump stocks
Raise the age to purchase a firearm to 21

Does anyone ever actually buy anything at Dick's? I have spent a grand total of $30 there. I haven't been in the store in a couple of years.

I lived in Tampa and had to drive along ways to BP Shop.

If you’re a common sense person, you probably don’t feel you have a home in this world right now. If you’re a Christian, you know you were never meant to.

Why not just stop selling them? Without a press release. Just don't put them out. How many people would have really noticed? Not near as many as do now.

The true mark of a man is not how he conducts himself during times of prosperity, but how he conducts himself during times of adversity.
