Re: Academy, You're Fired!
I find it interesting that Academy didn't remove all the Glocks.

I'm not sure from what exactly they need to seek cover.RoyGBiv wrote:Below is a post I made on another gun forum......
It's much easier to MMQB Academy's response than it would be to explain to their shareholders why they didn't seek some cover when the libhadis started lobbing mortars their way. Academy is one of the retail faces of the Second Amendment. When's the last time you walked in to a Daniel Defense retail store filled with golfers, tennis players, weightlifters and joggers.?
Do I like what DD did? It certainly has some marketing panache. Was it risky for them? I'm guessing the folks that buy DD don't do so at Academy in big numbers. Just a guess.
Am I ready to throw Academy under the bus? Not nearly.
If your first move in this chess match is to fall on your sword, I don't want to play on your team.
However, as a shareholder, I'd want to know why the revenues from modern sporting rifles tanked while demand was at an all time high with no real pending litigation.

Seeking cover is not nearly as egregious as scalping.
