I fully understand no longer ordering additional inventory and to eventually stop selling them but why destroy the remaining guns?
Its a public PR play.
They saw a big uptick in free-press and popularity among anti-Trump people. This is just milking that a little bit more. I'm sure the cost is negligible to them in the grand scheme.

I get what they are going for, obviously destroying a frick load of expensive product is a PR play. It just doesn't make sense why a sporting/outdoors store feels the need to impress the anti trump crowds. It's not like they were hurting for business that would cater to that side
