Thoughts and prayers just aren’t enough. At least not for Ed Stack, CEO of Dick’s Sporting Goods. Stack announced that the retailer will stop selling assault-style rifles at all of its stores following the Parkland school shooting earlier this month that killed 17 students and adults.

Dick’s (NYSE: DKS) will not sell firearms to anyone under 21 years old and is removing the semiautomatic rifles from its retail and online stores that include Dick’s as well as its Field & Stream brand. Dick’s Sporting Goods is based in Findlay Township, near Pittsburgh. It will also not sell high-capacity magazines and so-called bump stocks that allow assault weapons to fire at a faster rate, according to a statement from Dick’s, writes Paul J. Gough for the Philadelphia Business Journal.

Stack told The New York Times, which broke the story, that Dick’s was taking a stand and urged laws to ban assault-style rifles, bump stocks and banning the sale of weapons to anyone under the age of 21.

Dick’s sold a shotgun to the accused school shooter in November that wasn’t part of the guns that weren’t used at Parkland.
