Can remember a time when Dicks Sporting Goods was just a Familiar store were families purchased gear for what ever sport season that our kids were involved with. No firearms just sporting goods for Hockey,baseball,football and basketball. They also carried a decent line of out doors camping and running items.
Dick's is structured towards middle income families. No junk,nothing really over priced,great selection of products,no,don't have any connections,just like to shop these folks. The firearms thing took me by surprise when we first shop their new format. They never needed to add these product lines. Hopefully they dump the firearms and stick to what made them famous.

I am sure how much you can mark up a camping backpack versus an assault rife.
