I am from Nebraska.,where that store is common. Be prepared for poor selection, prices marked not honored at the cash register, ammo purchase limits...

I heard earler today that Dicks is to build a store in BA near the Target sometime soon . Anyone been to one ? Will it be any better than Academy ?

They are all over the Chicago metro area.

The stores themselves tend to be nicer and better-maintained, and they have better general outdoors stuff (like kayaks) than Academy, but they suck for gun-related stuff. I don't know if that's a problem shared by the whole chain or just a thing with IL's gun laws.

I've bought very little from Dick's, they're definitely nothing special. They actually feel like a sporting goods store for the "upper-classes". I don't know if they intend that or not, but just how it feels. I go to academy for ammo and quick shooting supplies. If you want good outdoor supplies, hit REI.
