OMG! Dick’s Is Selling ARs Again! Bushmasters Even! OMG!

Dick’s Sporting Goods famously demurred from selling frighteningly black rifles in the aftermath of Sandy Hook. Now they’re opening newly-branded Field & Stream hunting and fishing outlets and they’ve obviously fallen back in the thrall of Big Gun. Not only have they gone back to their old evil ways of selling AR pattern rifles, but in a blatant display of money-grubbing shamelessness, their first F&S store which opened last week is stocked chock-a-block with…Bushmasters. “’We have a full stock,’ said a clerk who identified himself as Gary. He said the guns retailed for $800, and that the gun counter was ‘really busy.’” The NBC News Investigations piece makes sure to recount the praise Dick’s got for spiking their AR sales last December, though they refrained from the obligatory quote from someone with the Brady Campaign or the VPC feigning horror at the change in company policy. It won’t be long now, though.
