Figured I should go ahead and get one of these 'AR15' things before they get banned. I saw the CNN training video, very informative.

They over-react on the political issue of the day or appease a minority. Then when facts roll in and enough people call them out on it, they act like nothing ever happened.
These are CEO's of large businesses. You would think that they would be smarter than this. But LOL at them. Screw them all.

I conceal carry 50% of them time I shop at REI, too. No sign posted at the door.

edit
going along with the local law thing - a lot of businesses added these signs a few years ago when the open carry law was clarified - not changed - but clarified. IIRC a lot of LEO in the state were pretty against it and encouraged local businesses to put signs up if they felt "uncomfortable" with open carry in their place of business - even though open carry was legal before the change

Bread item delivery guy asked if I was LE or Military because I look like one.
Are we really becoming a nation of either fat slobs or long haired hippies where only being somewhat fat and having short hair = must be LE/mil? What is this world coming to?

I did change my drivers license address already though, however i have to wait 2-5 weeks for it to come in the mail. I don't want to wait that long to get my AR15
. If it's possible to go in use the old address on my current license, i'd rather just do that lol.

The 4473 does ask for "current state of residence and address". So, I'd want to put my current address there.

In Idaho residents are required to inform of the address change, but you have to pay extra money for a new DL. Will I get denied because my address doesn't match my address even though it really does?
If I ever am able to find my gun this is kind of a question I don't want to get screwed over.

Had to drive near the place where Billy Graham's funeral was, with Trump attending. I saw these bigass cargo planes that brought his motorcade and pulled in to take some pics. These things are yuuuuge. Damn near as big as the Antonov 225 I saw in the same spot last year. C-17 Globemasters I think?

found this other pic from Atlanta for scale

I'm not saying you can't pick and choose your battles. But knocking REI so heavily while justifying Walmart is just wrong. I wish I could boycott each anti-gun company, but it's not practical. I'll do what I can when I can't. REI is not one of them, unfortunately. Mountaineering gear is very specific and it would be virtually impossible financially for me to climb without their return policy and availability. I can limit my purchases to specific gear, but I can't completely get rid of them. This isn't a hill for me to die on. Maybe Walmart isn't your hill, but to justify Walmart as being "the most pro-gun" store like some of you are is stupid.

Is that what Walmart did? 21 for all guns and ammo? Did they do anything else? I still buy ammo there because some is still a good deal there...and their Fairlife is $1/bottle cheaper than the grocery stores (and I buy a lot of that ****). Walmart would hurt to drop...but

So Brownells cucked me pretty hard.
Was waiting for my tax return to get in for my purchase of that Aero OEM 16. I got the return to do it put in my order and the order "processes confirmation and everything on the web page"
My credit card gets pinged with the "test" charge.
Then the order disappears... Their support can't see the order. Now the OEM is sold out.
Can only guess is someone clicked confirm before me. Now every configuration I want is sold out or expensive. Feels bad mane.

Walmart sells ammo, and guns.
That's a pretty stark difference, dontcha think?
Walmart does still sell guns...I don't see REI selling any guns.
As to justifying Walmart, I said I don't know, it's tough/complicated. Because, well, Walmart is selling guns and ammo, and REI is so scared of them they won't buy from a company that is associated with companies that makes them I mean lol wow.
I do think it is an overall benefit for Walmart to continue carrying ammo and shooting supplies like cleaning kits, targets, eye pro, ear pro, etc. And it's probably an overall benefit for Walmart to continue carrying firearms. It's not like an 18-20 year old can buy a gun or ammo from REI lol. But, Walmart did turn it into a publicity stunt to take a stance more restrictive than law...

U.S. and Canada:

It's a free lifetime membership. They track your purchases and you accrue an annual dividend proportional to your spending there. They also do a member sale once a year with 20% off one full priced regular item and one full priced garage/clearance type item.
Cancelling the membership is a tangible step demonstrating the sincerity behind "I'm not shopping there any more"

So I have a few basic consumer goods I actually need to buy at a "box store". My options are Target, Shopko, and Walmart.
Target doesn't sell guns or Ammo at all has strong anti gun biases.
Shopko doesn't sell guns or Ammo at all has strong anti gun biases.
Walmart has a lame ass policy - but often has cheap ammo and does carry guns. Lots of hunting, shooting, and other items.
So if I need to pick A, B, or C... Why would supporting C for those needs not be the most beneficial choice?
On the other hand... For sports stores.
I have Cabelas - Not a kunt, but expensive. - Pro-gun
I have Sportsman Warehouse - Expensive and in Washington state - Pro gun
Dicks - Expensive, Anti gun.
Local Store - Cheaper + Progun
Under this option I can say DICKS is by far the worst option to support my interest. For box stores Walmart is the "Best" choice even if they are kunts.

Then why do you not support Dicks? Don't they still sell guns and ammo?
You blew up about Trump's anti-gun proposals (rightfully so), but now you justify supporting a company because they adopted exactly what trump said?
Who cares if they will sell X guns. They removed ARs and don't sell to legal citizens anymore. REI doesn't sell guns in the first place.

So I have a few basic consumer goods I actually need to buy at a "box store". My options are Target, Shopko, and Walmart.
Target doesn't sell guns or Ammo at all has strong anti gun biases.
Shopko doesn't sell guns or Ammo at all has strong anti gun biases.
Walmart has a lame ass policy - but often has cheap ammo and does carry guns. Lots of hunting, shooting, and other items.
So if I need to pick A, B, or C... Why would supporting C for those needs not be the most beneficial choice?
On the other hand... For sports stores.
I have Cabelas - Not a kunt, but expensive. - Pro-gun
I have Sportsman Warehouse - Expensive and in Washington state - Pro gun
Dicks - Expensive, Anti gun.
Local Store - Cheaper + Progun
Under this option I can say DICKS is by far the worst option to support my interest. For box stores Walmart is the "Best" choice even if they are kunts.

You blew up about Trump's anti-gun proposals (rightfully so), but now you justify supporting a company because they adopted exactly what trump said?
Who cares if they will sell X guns. They removed ARs and don't sell to legal citizens anymore. REI doesn't sell guns in the first place.

Doesn't make Walmart different from Dick's, but does make them different from REI.
Do you have Walmarts press release about "modern sporting rifles" handy?

Farley and Austanian, so you guys are unable to boycott them. That's fine. It's not your hill to die on. But to justify what they are actually doing is wrong. They are doing exactly what Trump proposed and what Dicks does. They are no better. My issue isn't that you simply cannot not shop there, as I explained with my continued use of REI, but that you're acting like it's not bad. Yes, it is. But the burden on you if you don't shop there is worse. My two cents.
