Dick's Sporting Goods in Gaithersburg got rid of its whole firearm section. Most of the gun owners that I know have been boycotting that place because of its anti-Second Amendment stance even before that and most of us are not just firearm enthusiasts but also camp, fish, and do water sports. I am guessing that they believe that the Sports Authority business model will work this time.I live near NAS Pax River. The Dick's Sporting Goods store here is the only one in the Sales District to still have a gun counter and ammo. I worked for them in Illinois from 96 - 05, was The Gun Guy and had a lot of repeat business. Dick Stack's son Ed is the one who led them away from the anglers, hunters and campers that built the business.
Fortunately, there are a couple of local shops who have knowledgeable staff.
