“We found out that we sold this kid a shotgun,” Stack said. “That’s when I said, ‘We’re done.’”

So why didn’t he destroy all the shotguns?

Don't be a Dick

The new horse-face president is begging for some stiff medicine.

That’s sounds like a load of crap to me. It would have been cheaper to just send them back to the manufacturer.

I'm a little suspicious myself.

I suspect that the cost is way inflated, and that the weapons might have been re-directed or returned, and that since the alleged CEO doesn't know what means "assault rifle", that we could be looking at a high vis con.

We want proof, meaning makes, models, and numbers (not a few pics). .

By golly, you’re right!

$5 million of guns that just evaporated so Ruger got paid for them and gets to make more!

Don’t be a Dick’s Sporting Goods stockholder.

If I need anything they might have, I always try to find it somewhere else.

Get woke, go broke.

“Dick’s CEO Says They Destroyed $5M Worth Of Assault Rifles”

And where did they manage to acquire $5M worth of “Assault Rifles,” since they are largely illegal to possess or acquire.

He's worth a billion dollars. So he has his own private security (with guns) no doubt. What does he care if you can't defend yourself against criminals?

“Off the Street”? Why would they be “on the street” if they were legally purchased with full background check cleared? They would only be “on the street” if Dick’s was irresponsible.

Stupid a@@ argument they are “cleaning up the streets”. Anything but— they are endangering people who would want a semi-automatic rifle for self defense.

And ... idiot boy at Dick’s... GET IT RIGHT. You NEVER ever sold an “assault-style rifle” which would be... a “style” like an assault rifle— which is a SELECT FIRE Machine Gun. If you ever did sell a MACHINE GUN you would be in crap loads of trouble without the correct Class IV permitting and licensing. So— you NEVER had an assault rifle in your inventory— EVER!!!

“If I were a stockholder, I would force a vote for his resignation.”

So, $38 is all that is keeping him from office?

How can people be so stupid?

The bad guys will have these guns. Just know that.

So we can’t have them to defend our family?

Who made our small children and wives hostage to guys like this dick?
