I made a post there as well.

Of course after posting stuff on face book I will probably be locked up and permanently detained at obamano and never heard from again. I made a long post answering my great aunts question, "but Trav, why do we need assault weapons" [Mad]

I've bought several guns from them (Mainly because some girl I knew managed their IT stuff and she was hot). I can't knock them for not wanting the publicity. Am I disappointed? Yes. Fact is the AWB is coming and they're just getting ahead of the curve and doing some damage control at the same time... Unfortunate situation.

When the smoke clears we will know who has the balls to get my cash (no homo).

When capitalism fails, so does a free society.
Every place that makes this "moral" move makes it that much easier for the Antis.
Nothing like falling on their own sword.





Pussies, every establishment that gets "Moral" all of a sudden can F,O and D.
How many of these places are spooked at becoming the place that sold the next nutbar their weapons

Years ago I scored a sweet 686 357 with some trigger work for under $400 actually made money on that deal last year they even did a transfer on a AR lower receiver for me but there sales people seemed a bit uniformed on guns.

They are an "outdoor mercantile" who also sells kitchen crap so I'm not terribly surprised by all this but I still feel pissed about their lack of back bone and support of the 2A.

seriously mods can we get a sticky to put all of these anti 2A shops into?

Dont forget Brownells in the list, who sold me some mags then cancelled my order and jacked up the price over night. FOOKEM!

Once upon a time Jax had a gun friendly staff and selection. At that time they were on 14 (mulberry) where the RENT 2 Own place is/was, north side of 14.
THEN they moved to N. College and away went the guns. The owner has never been firearm friendly. I believe IIRC the gun dept mgr came back and they resumed selling guns, not the BRD style. Then they carried,some, now they do not.

I reply to those people..."well...why do you need a new bmw/merc/audi/insert any car of your choice? I mean...wont a cheap well price economy car do the same job as that bmw you own?"

When they get confused I usually just say..."and that is why People like you should not be making judgements or passing misleading information to others until you get a clue."

I was also irritated that the owner posted that there are thousands of places to purchase "assault weapons." Just another sheep that fell for the hype.

No way...Brownell's too, now that makes me sad, seriously sad.

so is anyone keeping a consolidated list?

and Brownells, they really cancelled existing orders, not just jacked remaining stock? Cancelling an order is much worse than just bumping prices IMO. An agreement has already been made. SportsmansGuide did that to me around 5 years ago, cancelled my little preferred buyer thingie and never went back.

I just commented to the owner of Jax on Facebook. You will see the thread under the heading "New Vision Charter School". The owner (Jim) seems to be a very PC guy and buys into the evil black rifles idea...

Haven't really seen any hard evidence on Wal-Mart yet. A few maybes though.

Bummed about JAX. Loveland store gun shop made me some good deals. Got a lot of good-quality outdoor apparel from their clearance racks for a song, too.

I can't imagine the long-term revenue these retailers are giving up, basded on knee-jerk reaction decisions.

Screw em... I used to like that store too. It is (was) my go to store for nightcrawlers, because I go fishing right by there all the time in FTC.

Lots of stupid comments on their facebook page... People thanking them for having the courage to stop selling "assault weapons with high bullet clips"
