Bud's and Cheaper than Dirt.

No past luck with CTD. THey messed up 2/3 orders for me. Dicks has low quality accessories for excessive prices. I only stop their if I need something last minute.

I am wondering if the traces on those guns lead to CTD and Dick's though. If they did it would be a BIG hit on both unless they were well out in front before it hit the news. ATFE would be all over them just to placate their handlers along with all the NGOs. If I were an FFL and sold those guns I might close shop for a while. If that turns out to be the case I can't hold their decisions against them. If it isn't the case I will.

We have not pulled AR or any rifles for that matter. We are simply sold out of a lot of models. We will continue to list them as we receive them from our distributors. We will not stop selling them!"
 
Just got a email from them saying that they will not stop selling firearms. Just stopped at the moment to update their policy due to the overwhelming demand. They will continue to sell firearms in the future.

On another note. I wonder if Romney was president. Do you guys think he would not have been involved with a gun ban? Or at least pressured too like our president has been. I mean I know you guys are seeing him coming under fire for doing nothing in the last Four years to strengthen Gun laws. And also being under fire right this moment for not putting in to act sooner. I mean I love you guys like a brother but please stop the hatin.
 
Confirmed by CheaperThanDirt Online Chat. The following is a transcript from a chat with their customer service that ended moments ago:

06:41:16 PM [Brian] I'm curious about the sudden "Cheaper than Dirt does not sell firearms."
06:42:20 PM [Milo] Welcome to Cheaper Than Dirt! Tech Talk. My name is Milo.
06:42:42 PM [Brian] Hi.
06:43:18 PM [Milo] Hi Brian, we have temporarily halted sales to rework our system to handle the sudden increase in sales volume.
06:44:17 PM [Brian] Oh. Ok. What is the time-frame for resuming sales? I don't know if your company is aware but the timing of the change, corresponding with the tragic events in CT, has people wondering.
06:45:27 PM [Milo] I know it has people talking. But with the huge spike is sales we started to lose our customary order quality and changes must be made. We will get back up and running soon.
06:46:21 PM [Brian] Ok. Thank you for answering my questions. Glad to hear it.
06:47:04 PM [Milo] You are welcome. Can I do anything else for you?
06:47:10 PM [Brian] No, that's it.
06:48:10 PM [Milo] Have a good night and a merry Christmas
06:48:16 PM [Brian] You too.
06:48:39 PM [Brian] and thanks for still saying Merry Christmas too! ;-)

Not quite sure how to interpret this--I am in complete opposition to the POTUS's advocating a reinstatement of the AWB or any further controls or regulations of guns other than what currently exists. Does that qualify me as a "hater?" I do not believe so.

Keep in mind that as far as I can tell from preliminary reports (and someone feel free to correct me as I do not pretend to be a legal authority of any sort), the horrific crimes committed by this madman were done so using guns that would be utterly permissible even within the scope of the previously implemented AWB environment (*unless they were to broaden the scope of the AWB definition to include semi-auto handguns...?). Moreover, the two known crimes committed by the madman were already subject and in violation of currently existing law 1) murder 2) stolen property.
