If you're destroying rifles, arbitrarily increasing the age limit for the legal purchase of firearms AND using your profits to hire anti-gun lobbyists, then you are definitely NOT pro-2A!

You guys do know Dicks sold Field & Stream in rochester

Dick's might as well change it's name to Dicks Camping goods....

Yeah I read that article too.  Said they've lost hundreds of millions in hunting goods revenue IIRC.  Good, backstabbing prick.

Their stock price has gained since they made this change.

Because the guys who buy the stock are not the guys buying the guns and ammo in there store  doesn't mean much .

They will absorb those losses and keep on trucking . They may not gain as much as they originally  estimated  but shareholders will get there money . They dont care about hard goods . Bigger profit on clothes . Soccer moms and there yoga pants . Destroying 5 million dollars in guns  is a PR stunt that  will be more effective than a years advertisement .
