    Agreed, good idea.

    I found out they are expecting a truck Mon the 31st but will not put ammo on shelves until Tues morning. They're never sure what they will receive and do not expect prices to increase.

    On an aside, very few handguns in the case and all Academys no longer display ARs, you must ask to see one. They will show only one AR at a time, no matter how many customers are waiting to see them.

    Thanks for the heads up. Might have to go up there Tuesday.

    Damn, are they giving in to the media pressure too? or is there another reason for this new policy?

    I was told academy gets their shipments early Monday morning (like right now) and it is typically on the shelf after lunch sometime. I'm heading to two of them at 2pm to check it out

    No Academy closer to Crosby?

    I complained to the Conroe guys about same. One AR at a time is current CORPORATE policy and the locals have no say so. Locals didn't like it either.

    I assume shipments were made to all stores on Monday but I only addressed the Conroe store since that's who I was talking to.
    My best guess is by 2pm they will no longer have .223 but Conroe still had some "expensive" 5.56 on the shelf Saturday night.

    If you look it up on walmart.com you can search store availability (also gives you a date and time of accuracy). Always ask associate to check the locked cabinets, I have found 2 cases of fed .223 in the last 2 weeks doing that in stores that had none in the case.
