Dicks's Sporting Goods
« on: July 05, 2012, 10:31:56 AM »
I have reason to believe Dick's Sporting Goods is opening a store in the Spokane Valley.  This may be old news but I am atarting to see contracts coming across my desk.  Valley Mall it looks as if it is where Sportsman Warehouse once was.
It's a TIKKA thing..., you may not understand.

I have found Dicks sporting goods to be a waste of time, just an oversized Big-5

Dicks has good deals on Sports clothes, No hand guns and limited hand gun ammo.  What ammo they do have is pretty cheap though.
They must have idiots ordering their rifles and shotguns, very few are worth even concider to buying. They have a ton of very low quality shotguns and rifles.

I used to go to Dick’s in Asheville, NC, to outfit my son and daughter with baseball/softball gear – when on sale.  I found it wasn’t good for much more than that.

It's usefull if you need something right that second and it's too late to order from anywhere else.

No... but I don't see a lot of difference between the two. Or Big 5.

About half the ones around me do. Not really worth looking at or buying from them though. Big 5 has a better selection.

When they opened their store in Renton I went in to purchase a rifle for my son.  They had a great deal that if you spent $500 you get a $250 gift card.  They have a  large gun counter but it is deceptive.  At first glance you see 100+ rifles but when you get closer you'll see that they only have about 20 models.  Most of them low end.  Only one guy seemed competent and I had him special order a Tikka T3.  I got the $250 gift card and picked up a scope and some binos with it. 

They have a decent amount of stuff but I liked them better when they were out of state so that I could order online and not pay taxes.   :)

Not a true outdoors store but a notch up from Big 5 and Sports Authority.
