This evening, I went to Dunham's Sporting Goods in Lansing MI (Lansing Mall) to purchase a Mosin Nagant 91/30 rifle (on sale for $69). Upon presenting my C&R License to them the Store Manager advised that Dunham's policy is to not accept Federal Firearms Licenses (both Dealers and Collectors). I informed the Manager that my C&R License, in accordance with the law, does allow me to acquire C&R firearms at any location (see 27 CFR Part 478, Subpart D, Section 478.50(b)). Having informed the Manager that I was a resident of NC, she also advised that Dunham's does not sell rifles to non-residents which I informed her was contrary to Federal Law (specifically: 27 CFR 478.29(b) & 478.96(c)).
I am aware that a Dealer has the right to refuse to sell a firearm to anyone they choose; however, I feel that anyone or any organization who does not honor Federal Firearms Licenses is not supporting the Pro-Gun movement nor the 2nd Amendment. As a result, I will not ever be a patron of any Dunham's Sporting Goods stores. Additionally, I am contacting Dunham's Corporate Headquarters; specifically Chris Cielak (Corporate Store Manager) at (248) 674-4991 ext 529, to ensure that they are made aware of my opposition to their store policy.
I hope you join me in contacting Dunham's to express your concerns.
Thank you.
