I worked at the Greenwood Galyans from 2001 through the buy out by Dicks, into 2006. there is no comparison between the 2 companies. Galyans stressed training and knowledge of your department. Dicks stresses sell through. at galyans if you wanted a paricular firearm and we didn't have it, we could order it even to the point of sending out FFL's to new manufacturers. Dicks theory is sell whatever junk might be in stock. If they don't have what you want, " you are misinformed, this H&R single shot is a far superior firearm to the Browning over under you want."
I expect that Dicks will get out of the firearms business in the near future. there personell are not properly trained in firearms sales procedure. when I took over the washington square hunting dept, I found so many mistakes in 4473's and log books that i spent 3 months just trying to correct them.I finally left when i was told by coorporate to quit looking for problems. ATF will come down on there sloppy procedure one day, and they will just get out.
I could Rant for hours about them. just suffice it to say they take there name very literally
