we will not be undersold. Thanks for your support over the years and no we are not going anywhere.
KKR still owns Academy. Also, last time I asked for a price match at Academy I was told they do not match on guns and boats.
The "we will not be undersold" is catchy though. Gonna have to use that one some time.
