, I gotta say you're good. Some people you just can't reach. I for one will skip Walmart and go to Academy for my next ammo purchase to offset this "boycott" 
I was only trying to give an example that might sink into this guys head.
Look kid, you keep getting on here and making noise about someone not reading the post; and not knowing what they are talking about. Where is my age listed as me being 47. You are the one ranting and raving and don't have a clue about what you are talking about. Just as stated by me and a few others; on here that feel the same way about Academy and most of its employees, and the way they treat people you are proving my point. You are coming up with quotes and ages that I have not even disclosed to you on this site. I can say this much: if I was the 47 year old fart that you are accusing me of being; and you being 23 and talked to me that way I would come to Academy to bring you a towel to wipe the wet spot behind your ears, and explain to you a lesson your parents should have given called respect for your elders. Oh and by the way; I joined the military on the GI Bill and graduated college and I am in senior management at a local plant. I figured my time in the military taught me alot, in life and it taught me to be a man. I did apologize to you for working for the company that you work far but the more you post the more I feel you deserve each other. Rules are rules and they can only be adhered to, if all players know what they are going into the game. If Academy wants to do things different then the other stores then by all means post your rules so everyone is on the same playing field. Me personally I could care less, and I would never read them because of the rudeness of the Manager in Kenner irritated me to the point I will never step foot in another Academy store. And you also stated that if he went somewhere else he would be delayed just like at Academy. Go back in the post and you will see he was delayed less than a day at a (GUN SHOP), he picks his gun up Saturday after the morning hunt. So I guess the point that I am trying to make kid at 23 years young, maybe you do not know everything and if you sit back quietly you could learn from some old farts. Beings I had already done everything you had suggested prior to me hearing it from you. You have offered no advice to me that was useful. And by the way I do not want fries with my GLOCK.Or maybe, you can understand that in life things don't always go your way, and sometimes, its not really anyone's fault. I would think being an old fart of 47 that you would have learned this lesson by now, but apparently not. Also, you shouldn't make it a habit of generalizing and offending people that you don't know, especially when all they were doing is trying to help you out. That is like me saying something stupid like people only join the military because they can't cut it in a higher form of education just because of one person that did something that didn't go exactly my way, but I would NEVER say that because I know that it isn't true, and I'll bet that you have been in an Academy Sports before and had someone help you with something. I am almost willing to bet anything that your "conversation" with this "manager" went nothing like you said it did and that you misconstrued it to try to make them seem like more of a big bad wolf for not changing a corporate policy just to appease you. I've tried to be nice to you, I've offered my advice "from the inside," invited you to the store I work with if you ever needed anything there, and am willing to help out by posting deals and inventory at the store for you and every other Bayou Shooter member. Sure, I got aggravated and lashed out a little in ONE post because you obviously didn't read any of my posts and kept ranting on about things that I was trying to explain to you. Everyone who looks at this thread knows my stance, and I will continue to try to be proof that your posts and attempt to "boycott Academy Sports" is just foolish by being the best employee that I can be and continuing to treat all customers that I meet with respect. Hopefully, others see my point and don't pay mind to you. I hope I get the chance to meet and deal with as many fellow Bayou Shooter members as I can.
Disclaimer: In no way shape or form do I think or have I ever thought that my hypothetical example in this post was true. I have the utmost respect for all past and present military and try to shake the hand of and thank anyone I see in uniform for their service to our country, I even buy their meals sometimes when I see one or two eating at a place that I can afford as a "burger flipping shoe salesman"
I am down with that. Like I said I am ex military I am not scared.I dont, lets fight!!!
