Springfield Armory severs ties with DICKS

[Hodgie]

I know some of you want to forgive S.A. and I'm not picking a fight with that, but it seems to me that the gesture is about as empty as Dick's gesture to not sell firearms that they already didn't sell.

I haven't been in a DICKS store since being educated here 4 years ago, so my understanding may be in error, but how many M1A's, Saints, or handguns did Dicks have on their shelves? Do they even sell handguns? This is like saying S.A. won't have ties to Walmart. Show me a S.A. firearm in a Walmart store

To my knowledge Dicks has never carried anything from SA. I’ve never been in a Field & Stream so I cant answer for them.

I keep forgetting that "Field & Stream" is part of the equation. Never been in one either

magazines at any rate. I honestly have no idea what their business relationship has been in the past.

Looks like field and stream does carry some handguns along with magazines.

Thanks for the education! I don't know Dicks/F&S procurement method. It would be nice to see major distributors taking the same stand

No problem, whether they actually sold any Springfield products was a good question. Hopefully more do step up. Even with their anti 2nd bias, they are still a large distributor of goods. Hopefully other gun companies will take the same stance and stop selling through Dicks.

Kyak sales are gonna take a big hit....especially for those who wanted to fish and shoot pretty much on the same day...

Ok make fun of SA but why hasn't Remington, Mossberg and others done the same? Also Hornady doesn't sell to Police anymore which is a good thing all these anti gun laws has provisions in the if you are law enforcement or retired law enforcement you can have what ever you want that's so they bring the cops in line time to cut ties with all of them! So I say GOOD FOR SPRINGFIELD!

Hornady just got selected to provide the FBI their duty rounds..... the critical defense 135 grain +p round.

Hornady just won a contract with the FBI to provide them with service ammo.

Federal received the training ammunition contract which was for something like $15,000,000 worth of lead free primer high end ammunition.

Are you sure its critical defense and not critical duty? Critical defense is typically pretty underwhelming, IMHO.
