Their loss, I doubt the company is going to recover financially after this.

They obviously do not know their customer base. Soy-boy faggots aren't buying outdoor gear or guns . . .
[–] Tubesbestnoob 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) 7 days ago
Dicks could start selling pegs for Mrs. Soy. That might keep them afloat.

Maybe they buy bicycles, although most of them weigh over 300 lbs so I doubt it.
I guess their goal is to be an overpriced clothing store.

I'm certainly not ever going to shop there now.
I didn't anyway because I thought thy were pretty shitty, but now I KNOW they are shitty!
[–] ilikeskittles 1 points 9 points 10 points (+10|-1) 7 days ago
One more store I'm not going to shop at anymore.

To be fair, these are their guns. They own them and can do what they want with them. I still won't give them my patronage however.

I, too, like to buy and/or make a bunch of inventory and then destroy it. It's been very profitable for me. Everyone should do this.

Super smart businessing!

I wonder what the shareholders thought about them destroying salable company asset for nothing more than virtue signaling. I used to buy my clays and sometimes shells from Dick's. Not any more.
[–] weezkitty 0 points 0 points 0 points (+0|-0) 7 days ago
Since shareholders are often in the pocket of "the agenda", I kinda doubt they give a shit.

Mutual fund managers are more like " Bitch better have my Money!"

So every single sporting rifle has to be checked off against it's serial number when being melted down? $700 or so bucks a pop and they'll take that as a loss? yeah right! they'll just return to the manufacturers and get their money back cost price the same as they paid for each unit. Retail cost of an AR-15 bushmaster is about $750 thats the basic model say $500 cost price per unit. 1000 units, shit thats a lot of scrap steel at current prices worth less than an RSJ (steel beam)

"brownshirts".
Come on goyim, don't you know that fascism is everything you dislike? (((Democracy))) is the only way to have rights within a society. It's not like we're using it to take your freedoms and guns away.
[–] Behuvius 0 points 1 points 1 points (+1|-0) 7 days ago
Noone needs them anyway. There are tons of independent online retailers out there. I've bought all of my ARs (for the libs: ARmalite not Assault Rifle) online and received them through mail.
