Big 5 pulls gun ads?

[GW]

Their ads are designed 10 weeks in advance. Which is why a month ago they were advertising Mini-14's even though there wasn't one to be had in the state.
Releasing ads for stuff they didn't have caused a lot of ill-will. Now I imagine they're playing it safe and not advertising anything firearm related because, like everyone else, they can't guarantee they'll have it.

They just don't have anything to offer....except 9mm at 29 dollars a box of 50!!!

The Big5 here in Sonora actually started displaying the evil weapons again although they are at full price. Colt .22, hK 416 .22, mp5 .22 clones.

I was considering buying a couple of the Maverick Pump SG's from B5. They were running about $230 for the 7 shot (20" Barrel). Now they are $300 at every location.
The Mossberg 500 I bought 18 months ago for $300 now sells for $400, when they have it in stock.
I don't see any sales happening for quite a while. People are lining up too pay full price.

Why do people have to jump conclusions before they have any information on why something was done and post it on the internet. Just as bad as the media.

So true. Geez..

last week the store manager said this almost word for word ^^^

The guy at my local Big 5 says they have been getting the shipments of ammo and people have been lined up waiting for it. Especially the .22LR and .223 which would be gone in minutes.
