Dick's is coming, again.

Recommended Posts

Dick's and the 2nd Amendment don't go well together.  I won't be shopping there.

Get off the ban Dick's van wagon already. They stopped selling AR's not all guns and ammo. How is this different from a local dealer that only sells to hunters? Should we boycott them?

 

I am more pissed at Taurus because they are the reason we have the smart gun law. They were the ONLY company to fund the research into the gun ten years ago.

 

So let's all keep the Taurus love going on this forum.

 

 

Who is John Galt?

I am so excited I figured out how to change my signature.

The new Dick's in Wayne opened yesterday.  I stopped by to check it out.  It's quite an impressive store, and much to my surprise, they will have guns and ammo!  Spoke with one of the sales clerks, and he said they had their FFL, but were awaiting approval form the NJ State Police (isn't that a surprise).

So they only accessories there yesterday, but should have the good stuff soon.

Let me say this clearly. If they have 22 ammo for less than 10 cents a round I don't care if they have sales associates in assless chaps.

 

The store in Paramus regularly has 40 round boxes of American Eage for 2.49, stoped by tonight for some 9's but they were sold out, but had plenty of .22.

They lifted the 3 box limit on everything except .22

Oh, and no Chaps

I'm sorry, but this is the most ridiculous logic ever... That's like saying Dianne Feinstein isn't anti-gun because she didn't want to ban all guns, and in fact, wanted to specifically protect several ones used for hunting.

 

It's your choice, and I don't hassle anyone about it, but I personally no longer set foot in Dick's (nor will I buy a Taurus for the reason which you stated, among others).

If Dicks was so anti 2a they wouldn't be selling guns and ammo like they do. Yes, they screwed Troy. No, they aren't anti 2a.

Dicks sold thousands of those rifles to people, including people that paid for them in full. It was the deal of the century. I know at least one of those people. Then Dicks told them to F off, they couldn't pick up their bought and paid for rifles. Of course, they couldn't find any ARs for under $2K after that because of the panic. Then Dicks sold those same rifles at their wholly owned Field and Stream stores at twice the price.

 

Not only are they anti, not only did they screw Troy, they violated contracts with thousands of their customers and then sold the rifles at double the price to other people.

 

I don't know of any company that has screwed firearms owners worse.

Cheaper than Dirt?

 

And thanks all for the heads up on Taurus. I realize that every company has made some errors, however that is a pretty big one.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
