Dick’s Sporting Goods Stops Selling Assault-Style Rifles
(Undated) — One of the nation’s biggest sports retailers is no selling assault-style rifles. Dick’s Sporting Goods said today it’s ending sales of the firearms, effective immediately. Dick’s also says it will no longer sell high-capacity magazines and it won’t sell any type of gun to anyone younger than 21. The announcement comes two weeks after a teenager was accused of using an AR-15 to kill 17 people at a high school in Florida. Dick’s CEO Edward Stack says the new policy is a direct response to the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.
