JAX - no more AR's or hi cap mags.

I asked JAX about this on their Facebook page, and this was their response:

Quote:

: "The unthinkable tragedy in Connecticut last Friday reinforced the reservations we have been feeling for some time about Jax selling both paramilitary semiautomatic weapons and large capacity magazines. These products do not align well with either the Jax mottos of "Grown-up and Still Having Fun!" or "Life is Better Here." Effective immediately Jax will no longer reorder, special order, or replace any AR15 or other paramilitary semi automatic firearms or high capacity clips exceeding 10 rounds of any kind."

I guess I know where I won't be shopping anymore.

I researched. It was a toss up anyway. Plus I try to buy in my community cause I own a business in my community.

And I had instant enjoyment instead of waiting on shipping! [ROFL1]

Never been to a JAX and now have no reason to ever go.
We are now simply weeding out the sandy-vag wanna be gun stores from the real ones.
Only issue is, less stores, more demand = nothing available.

Piss on JAX, fuck CTD and Dicks can eat a FAT DICK.

Well put. But this IS the time of people who a preoccupied by anything shiny and textty. As long as you don't harsh their mellow they could give a fuck. You know how hard it is to get people exited about anything of substance. Especially the under 22 crowd.

Well it's confirmed JAX will no longer be receiving any of my business, I wonder if I can cash (aka refund) in the gift cards I'll be getting for Christmas (from the in-laws, was a tradition...)

Well someone should ask "In light of the recent tragedy in China will you also be ceasing knife sales?"

I havent seen anything on sportsmans warehouse or bass pro? Any word?

If they paid in cash for any of these items, they were told to take down a description, just in case. They even had the contact info for the CBI sitting right there on the counter... WTF is that about?! Talk about vilifying your customers! I'm as sick as the next guy over these supposed 2A supporters bending over to take it up the rear, but sometimes you have to recognize a wolf in sheep's clothing earlier folks. Don't forget that.

DHS/FBI went around to all mil-surp/prepper and I'm sure gun stores about a year ago asking them to "voluntarily" participate in this "citizen watch" program of theirs. I read their letter and was a little spooked by it.

Walmart is supposedly still selling AR's (if you can find one), they just removed it from their website.

Cheaper than dirt was selling a 20 round box of PMC Bronze for $20 around noon today, now down to $12 and some change. Black Pmags were going for $50 each. FDE are now $29.97. Now I have nothing against free market capitalism but this is ridiculous. They wont get any of my money ever again.
I was in Dick's tonight and was told by the gun counter guy that they were instructed to remove all AR's from the sales floor. They aren't doing anything with them yet so who knows what they'll do. Dicks and Sports Authority had sales on select ammo of buy one, get one 50% off. Makes me wonder if they are going to get out of the firearm biz.

I hope they do get out of the biz, dirty pricks!

I find it most odd that CTD was the first to gouge last time around, and now they are bailing?

I guess on second thought I shouldn't be that surprised.

Are you going to get any, any on order, whats the deal..........

He final stated "well some rules may change and we may not be able to sell anything over 10 rounds".......

Thank you sir!! CLICK

I was just going to drive down there to confirm for myself in person but seeing as how you've already done it I don't need to ever go into that store again. Sad, we used to shop there a fair amount. I think I even have a gift card I will throw up on Craigslist now. Too bad because we liked walking the dogs around there while we shopped on cold days like today.

Oh shit! On top of that I just realized what is on the back of my truck:

Good thing it's sat in the garage for a few days before I could do any more free advertising for them. Heading out to blade it off right now...

Put a big ol' X through it with a sharpie, then when people ask about it, you can 'educate' them.

What about the Hi Cap CLIPS??? news morons keep refering too.

An even BETTER idea! So glad I procrastinated this time.

Needs a Calvin sticker pissing on JAX

I was upset that Jax was doing this but then again, I'm not selling my mags or ARs right now either.

For different reasons. Their purpose is to sell goods for profit. Our purpose is to spend money on items to own. Wasn't aware that Jax was playing the firearms futures markets.

I was pissed to see this too. I liked Jax in Lafayette due to them having a little bit of everything, and I always got their $5 off coupons. What a bummer they jumped on the wagon

Had the same problem with the store in fort collins. Found them at jensens in loveland and always fair on their prices.

I used to like shopping at JAX back in the day. About the last 3 years it started to become more of a yuppie run, yuppie outdoor store. I will defintely not be doing any business with JAX in the future over this little stunt.

I doubt Sports Authority is going out of the firearm business, they had the same sale on ammo last year around this time. Then again they only really sold hunting rifles and a few select revolvers anyways, at least at the ones I frequent.

I bought the last AR-10 Jax in Lafayette had in stock (no price gouging on it). I'm torn as to whether I should be pissed or pleased about that. Regardless, that's the last time I'll purchase from them. It's a shame too because they were the only local place that I was able to find a lefty Remington 870 so I was kinda keen on the store. I guess I can say that at least I got what I wanted from them before they turned into a pussy outfit.

Wow, I didnt believe it as they are a major surplus dealer, but after seeing it first hand on their facebook, I believe it now. I'll be sure to tell everyone I know about those collaborators.
