I have also contacted them and gave them my two cents worth.
If anyone hears back from them please post, but im sure they will not care, thinking thier to big. Maybe they are , maybe not.

Drove right by them today on the way to Sportsman's Warehouse, then Academy.

By far the highest priced of the 3 in these parts anyway.

I noticed that as well. I wonder if it is because they are sold out... I was in an Academy yesterday and as I mentioned earlier there were 3 that went out the door while I was BS'ing to one of the guys. Maybe 30 minutes. They only had 4 left to sell in the entire store. People walking up and just buying them.
So now, which I am not against, instead of having these guns in the hands of people that know them, want them. There will be thousands in the hands of folks who never thought of owning a gun before. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction........

Yep, most retailers are on fairly thin margins. If you hear of some kind of "support Dick's" movement, like the Chick-fil-A thing, that would be different. But there won't be. Adios Dick's, you crossed the line. Remember, there are always consequences for your actions. I'm a member of a nationwide forum and I am sure I will see the same thinking there.

Im sure many are being bought up, waiting for the ban, then sell and x2,x3,x4 thier money.

buy from them all the time but no more.. same here Same here. Also, if you've made a recent purchase, if at all possible,
return your items for a full refund.
I called and canceled an order with them earlier today. I made sure to tell them why the order was canceled too.

I doubt Dick's will even notice.
