I have felt this is the end of that sporting goods store.
You can only sell so many cheap Chinese shoes at an exaggerated price and keep the doors open.
Giving 'the finger' to Americans and their rights won't work well for them.
I stopped shopping there recently.
It's only a matter of time.

I'm quite pleased with mine, as well. Got mine in a drawing at RMEF. Sweet.

Mossberg and Hi-Point have joined in

Ruger, too, last I heard, although their independent supplier model complicates a complete severance.

It's the best title ever, c'mon. I'm glad to hear Mossberg cut Dick's off, too.

People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Yeah that's more than a little disappointing, isn't it?

Does anyone even read F&S anymore? :bdid:  Last time I looked in one it was like looking through a catalog.  Nothing but product endorsements... I guess now I know why.

I don't believe that is correct.

Bob, if you continue to waste our time with facts, you'll face a permanent ban. You're on notice!

There was a copy at my doctors office I tried to read when I was an hour early for my appointment. I tried to read a couple articles and they were all garbage. Very dissapointed glad I stopped my subscription years ago when at least a couple things were still left reading in there

Actually looking into it further, there is a Field and Stream store but has no affiliation with the magazine.
