If you really want to focus your frustration on a retailer today, I recommend it not be the one that was just the site of a terrorist attack and that stopped selling the AR-15 and similar weapons four years ago. I'll include a few you can contact instead in the following Tweet...
Here are three retailers that still sell guns to people under 21 years of age, along w/ the most recent PR contact info I have for them:

— Academy Sports allan.rojas@academy.com
— Big 5 Sporting Goods jmills@icrinc.com
— Dunham's Sports palmer@dunhamssports.com
I'll be reaching out to them shortly and will update the PR contact info if any of those email addresses bounce. You can find that info in the "Other Companies on Our Radar" section of grabyourwallet.org
Bass Pro Shops / Cabela's still sells assault-style weapons. PR contact here: press@basspro.com. So does Gander Outdoors, executive contact: russell.gentry@ganderoutdoors.com or
First and foremost, though, I think pressure should be applied to U.S. senators. That's the biggest lever for getting retailers to do what they should have done long ago. Follow the lead of people who work directly in the anti-gun violence movement. People like @shannonrwatts.
@shannonrwatts Just adding one more note to this thread to say that if you really want to send a message to @Walmart today, one thing it would be strategic & reasonable to ask for is the end of its open carry policy in states that permit it. You can do that here: corporate.walmart.com/contact-us/con…
@shannonrwatts @Walmart Here's better contact info for Dunham's Sports, a U.S. retailer that still sells assault-style guns. Chairman & CEO Jeffrey Lynn's email is jlynn@dunhamshq.com. Dunham's has 230 locations in 22 states. freep.com/story/money/bu…
@shannonrwatts @Walmart And here's better contact info for Gander Outdoors/ Camping World another sizable U.S. retailer that still carries assault-style guns: Jessica.Liddell@ICRinc.com, julia.young@icrinc.com, kevin.mckown@ganderoutdoors.com,
