Months after Dick's Sporting Goods made the move to stop selling assault-style rifles, the company is now considering removing all hunting gear, reports our sister station WLOS.

^^^In for a penny in for a pound.

Dick's sales are down 4% since they alienated gun owners by becoming anti 2nd Amendment. No matter what they do they will never get those consumers back in their store so to recoup that 4% they need to find a new market.

I know 4% doesn't sound like much but it's huge in the world of business.

I've bought a few things from Dick's when I lived Downtown but haven't been in that store for years. I buy my guns at either Big 5 or Cabelas. At least the ones I own now, looking into a 9 mm by spring. The Big 5 purchases I've just known what I wanted, with the 9 MM I'll go to Cabelas or Gallenson's for advice. They seem pretty knowledgeable.Mostly why I wouldn't buy anything from Dick's anyway. I asked a dude behind the counter a question on a Marlin 30/30, got a blank stare in return. No thanks.

I've never been in Dick's and they have guaranteed I never will.

I have an FFL and buy all my guns online directly from the distributor or I use Gunbroker.com if I'm buying or selling something special.

There's a Dicks here in American Fork which has only been open for just over a year. I drive by frequently and never see more than a handful of cars in their parking lot. I don't know how they've kept the doors open this long.

You should buy my Beretta. In great shape. I've had it probably 5 or 6 years but only fired 300-500 rounds through it.

How much do you want for it? I have to warm up the girlfriend to the idea (raging liberal). I do have her okay with me shooting any Trump militia that might be refusing to accept the outcome of the 2020 election so I think she'll be fine with it.

No clue what it is worth. Anyone know what a Beretta 92 FS is going for these days?

Gunbroker.com is your friend.

utahgunexchange.com is also a good local source.

Probably just be easier to upgrade your woman to hot chick that already has her own guns... just a thought...

The minute he mentioned she was a raging liberal we all knew she was at least 200 pounds or ugly.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181204/958d64d418cd7f4ffdba6441777c5a83.jpg
