Walmart to stop selling .223/5.56 and all handgun ammo

[V-Tach]

So no .308 for hunting?......No 6.5 Creedmoor? 30-06 is machine gun ammo....

Don't they know that damn near any hunting caliber is now available in a MSR platform?

WTF are they going to sell other than .375 H&H..........

Can y’all tell me where to get my 9mm online? I usually shoot Winchester white box.

Deals are popping up all the time. Between here and r/gundeals on Reddit I'm about covered. The last 9mm I bought was a case of Fiocchi for $159 shipped from LAX Ammo.

Academy will also sell ammo online with free shipping and they've had a few deals lately.

Alternatively, I could wear the tightest, thinnest stretchy cover garment that prints so badly that you can probably tell what kind of sights I’m running.

Just make sure you carry hollow points and not ball...

I'm thinking WM knows full well and are doing just what they have to do according to the junk science pushed by the Fugly Mom groups. But have no fear, I'm sure someone will come along eventually and use an AR10 to kill a bunch of folks and WM can use that as a reason to not sell .308 or whatever else.

You don't need reddit to go to gun.deals

No but I'm there anyway.

Pretty simple--if they ask you to leave, you leave. I wouldn't shave the semantics between "ask/tell/make" too finely, were I you. Just saying.

Walmart simply said they will "ask" people not to OC in their stores. Whether that means they will post 30.07 signs or have their managers ask those who do OC to leave has yet to be seen. Until such time as effective notice is given, it's not enforceable.

Remember they claimed they were going to check LTCs when OC first went into effect, and that never happened either.

Plus, their claim to allow OC when a "law enforcement officer was present" only muddies the water further.

I could swear I heard some early report that Ator used an AR-10. Not that I think it would be accurate.

On the local news here in DFW this morning (Fox 4), the reporter stated that Walmart was discontinuing the sale of "handgun and short barreled rifle" ammunition...

Was not aware short-barreled rifle ammo existed.

Edit: removed reference to reporter being a nitwit. (Thanks Hoji!)

Reporter was just repeating what Walmart said in their memo

Thanks; edited original comment as prudent.

The paper said (yeah, I know) that they would be posting signage. The "Law enforcement officer present" has been reworded to "except for law enforcement officers", meaning LE will be allowed to open carry.

And their "memo" clearly demonstrated a severe lack of knowledge and proof that feelings trump logic and truth...............purely political in nature.........

I have never bought guns nor ammo from Walmart. I support my local shops. Almost Always
Walmart can do whatever they see fit. Bothers me non and I don’t buy my boots at Tractor Supply.

I used to buy all of my pistol ammo from Walmart, until a couple years ago, then their prices were no longer as competitive as online.

thought this was interesting, saw this on Twitter. Hornady hasn't done business with Walmart since 2007.

"As long as there is a Hornady at Hornady, we will never sell Walmart direct. They don’t support our industry." - Jason Hornady, 2007

Do LEs need to wear their badge openly also? Ridiculous.

Not that I would, but how would they be able to distinguish one of these from an actual LE badge (again, given there's no signage)?

I'll just keep using these this
