Kroger surprises me a bit. A few years ago, I seem to recall MDA or someone protesting Freddy's allowing carry, and Freddy's wouldn't cave.
I heard a rumor last night at a gun counter that Arby's and a few other restaurants had put out (or will shortly) a statement that they don't want you carrying in their restaurants. Unsure it true, but I don't think we've seen the last of companies make a statement on the matter. _________________ Massivedesign wrote: I am thinking of a number somewhere between none of and your business. |

Except they say Springfield, Mossberg, Ruger...... |

Isn't it ironic that we can't trust an 18 year olds judgement with a gun but we should listen to a bunch of teenagers skipping school to inform our policies and legislative agenda.

Fred Meyer just announced they will discontinue selling firearms and ammunition. I suspect it wasn't a profitable area in the store based on their high retail pricing anyway.

I was in Kirkland Fred Meyer today and they had a sign on the BB gun / airsoft display case saying no sales of firearms or ammo to under 21. This particular store has never sold firearms or firearm ammo so I am wondering if they believe it applies to BB guns and airsoft guns and ammo. Couldn't find anyone in the department to ask.

Ehh it was all about money, I read an article that said they did 7 million in sales devide that buy the 130 stores that carried guns and it come up to a little over a grand a week average. Guns are not a high margin item if they replace the gun area with a higher margin item that sales more than a grand a week they make more money.
