Does Dick's Sporting Goods Sell Ammunition Now?

I’ve been trying to keep up with all the changes at Dick’s Sporting Goods, especially regarding the sale of ammunition and firearms. A few years back, they stopped selling guns and ammunition in many locations, which was a big deal for a lot of hunters and shooters out there.

I’m wondering if they have made any updates on this front recently. Does anyone know if they currently stock ammunition in any of their stores or online?

Here are a few things I’m curious about:

  • Are there specific locations where they do sell ammunition again?
  • What types of ammunition do they carry?
  • If they don’t sell it anymore, what are some good alternatives for purchasing ammunition in-store or online?

Any insights would be greatly appreciated! It helps a lot to share experiences and knowledge, especially as we’re heading into hunting season.

Yes, Dick’s Sporting Goods does sell ammunition now! They focus on specific calibers, primarily handgun and rifle ammo. However, the stock can vary, especially around hunting season and holidays.

That’s great to hear! Has anyone noticed what kinds of rifle ammo they typically carry during hunting season? I wonder if they stock up more then.

4

Based on my last visit, they had .223 and .308 in stock! They seem to rotate their inventory based on the seasons, so keep an eye on their website for updates.

Nice! Are their prices competitive? I remember them being a little higher than other stores.

6

To be honest, their prices can be a bit on the high side compared to local shops, especially for hunting season. They occasionally have sales, though.

I agree with johnbrewer; I’ve seen better deals at local stores, but the convenience is nice! Plus, they have a good return policy which helps.

8

That’s true! Also, does anyone know if there are limits on how much ammunition you can purchase at once?

I believe they do have a limit, usually around 3-5 boxes per customer, especially if the stock is low. This seems to be a recent policy change, likely due to demand.

It’s good they’re trying to manage stock. I noticed the last time I visited, they had a section for popular calibers which was pretty organized.

Glad to hear that! I think seasonal variation is key here; does anyone know if they offer anything like discounts for first responders or military?

12

Yes, they do offer discounts! It’s generally 10% off for first responders and military, which is a nice touch.

13

That’s great! Definitely good to support those who serve us.

On a lighter note, if I buy too much ammo, I might need a bigger safe! Anyone else struggle with that?

15

LOL, to be honest, my safe is already bursting at the seams! We need designated “ammo rooms”!

16

Yes, Dick’s Sporting Goods does sell ammunition now! Their selection is decent, but I’ve found prices can be higher than other retailers like Bass Pro Shops or even local stores.

17

That’s good to know! I’m mostly looking for practice rounds. Do you know if they stock any reliable brands?

18

I’ve bought Federal and Winchester at Dick’s, and I found them to be good quality! Just be aware the prices are slightly inflated compared to online options.

Thanks for the info! Have you noticed any sales or discounts while shopping there?

I saw some promotions a month ago! The sales on ammo come and go, but it can be worth checking back regularly if you’re looking to save a bit.
