Alright, I know we have seen threads about this before. Many were making assumptions on the signs. This is in relation to the Charlotte, NC store. They have a clearly marked sign that says:
"All firearms must be cased before entering store.".
I personally spoke with employees who confirmed they do not allow CCW in their store. Apparently this has been their policy for a long while.
Now their aversion to CCW does not however stop them from selling firearms, and ammunition, CCW holsters, or hosting CCW classes. So they are fine with raking in cash from firearms owners, just not in respecting their rights in any manner that does not directly infuse cash into their tills.
I believe others on here have said their particular stores do allow CCW so this may just be a Charlotte, NC thing. I personally an sending all my big store business to Gander Mountain who does welcome us.
****This has now been resolved. After this posted, a number of calls went into management at this store. They contacted me and let me know they do allow CCW in the store, their employee was incorrect, and their sign, while misleading, is not intended for CCW permit holders carrying weapons for protection.
