Walmart plans to dramatically step back from ammunition sales after 'horrific' shootings

Walmart is also asking shoppers to no longer openly carry firearms in stores, in states where "open carry" is allowed.

Fuck Walmart. I never shop for ammo there anyway.

 

[DavidK]

Money is better spent anywhere, but Walmart--for anything

 

[Flyingbullseye]

Lol, in Alaska? That should go over well with the clientele up there.

You are correct. I believe Alaska was the only place Wal-mart sold hand guns anymore. I thought they quit for the "lower 48" around 2005.

 

[Lunchbox27]

I only shop there when I feel down on myself.

I instantly feel smarter and better looking.

 

[acudaowner]

I am more than sure local dealers will be thrilled to pick up Walmarts ex customers in that item . when one shop stops selling , another will follow the count de money . It's good to be king

 

[Mwalex]

Fuck em.

[Maser]

Handguns at Wal-Mart? Do all they have is Rossi revolvers?

 

[MtnCreek]

They used to have a book about 3" thick that you could order most any new firearm from.

 

[sabrecross]

No more open carrying there, either...

 

[P-Squared]

I'm torn. I like to go to the Subway in Wally Mart for lunch and sit at a table next to the windows that look out into the store. I refer to it as 'Lunch and a floor show'. Little by little they chip away at my fun.

Problem is it’s just the start of a sliding movement. It will get worse almost surely before it gets better and better will only happen when leaders and population seriously CHIME IN. It’s a prolonged battle.

The people who make their living selling ammo aren't going to stop selling ammo.

Fuck Walmart with a rusty piece of rebar

 

[Vodoun daVinci]

Just sent them a letter telling them if they are going to pursue this then I'll shop somewhere else for *all* my stuff including the roughly $6000 per year in groceries my Wife buys there. Wanted her to shop elsewhere anyway and this seals the deal.

Fuck 'em - let's run 'em out of business.

VooDoo

 

[TACC]

They will be just like Dick's, they could care less, they'll make it somehow.

The bulk of shitmarts business is public tit money.The reason they are taking a knee is because they cut a deal with uncle over tit money. Keep empowering your enemy it's working well,...

 

[Rlandry]

This is the direction we are headed. One by one the retailers are cowing to the bedwetters. If you have not been buying ammo to stash away, now would be a good time to do it.
If you reload and have not been stashing away components, now would be a good time to do that.
It would even be a good time to stash a stripped lower in the back of the safe, just for a rainy day.
The big item is ammo. If you don't have any, or can't load some, you might as well sell you stuff for food cards, or simply keep it for door stops.

 

[Gunfighter14e2]

With out Ammo, Fuel, or Electricity, most shit just becomes almost worthless. Much like many who depend on the public tit,...

I purchased a fair amount of ammo from White Trash Mecca up til now . It's close and price is comparable . Gotta say I'm pissed . Well it was time to get off my nuts and start putting my other reloading dies to work . I'm good with brass and I'll be saving money so eff em . Never really enjoyed watching all the illegals and hood rats from Trenton shopping their anyways .

 

[pmclaine]

Target sports USA and Palmetto State Armory than.

I hope the Chinese trade war makes WalMart understand its in America.

Im sure Mr. Walton would have an opinion on this shit and I doubt it would be "piss off part of the clientele".

Ammoseek is your friend fuck chinamart.

 

[Alphatreedog]

Ammoseek is your friend fuck chinamart.

Between Bayou Bullets and Surplusammo.com I'll be good . And yeah fuck that place .

 

[loveha]

Can't recall last time I bought ammo from Walmart. Buy it online because it's cheaper and can get exactly what I want. Doesn't effect me any.

Also this won't hurt Walmart. Do I hate them? Yes, will I probably still shop there, probably. Only go there a few times a year anyways.

SGAmmo.com

They already got a High-volume shipping delay notice on the site.

 

[Blue Sky Country]

What the fuck is "short barreled rifle ammunition" anyway? I swear, with each day these gun-hating extremist freaks spout off nonsense thinking they know a lot about firearms, the less coherent they are.

Walmart can go choke on a dick, and like others have said here, those smaller and much more honest and honorable businesses that make their livings off of selling guns and ammunition will only grow. The only thing that Walmart is known for nowadays are Worldstar videos and assorted hoodrat shit.

I only go to look at the hot chicks in spandex!

 

[Rthur]

Wonder why anyone hasn't sued them for denial of service for a specific item...

Kroger has joined the "Don't open carry in our safe space" parade.

 

[10ring'r]

Fuck Walmart. I never shop for ammo there anyway.

 

[marc.]

Seemed pretty inevitable... sucks to lose a cheap ammo distributor though. We already lost online sales here. Don't know how much further they can push this without taking all the options away. Then people will turn to "alternate" means of acquiring ammo.

Land whales in over stretched juicy shorts can hardly be considered hot. You start hanging out with Shankster?

No. Dirty D!

Never go in but would order online from time to time, done!

Good for you Sean ! ???

 

[Gunfighter14e2]

You have to wonder why they still sell the # 1, # 2. & #3 biggest killing items in the US, Tobacco, Alcohol, car/truck items. Plus they have both feet Firmly planted in the addictive drugs as well.

I heard, on the radio, that ammunition sales makes up for 20% of their sales. This all sounds like a Dick's Sporting Goods moment. They aren't doing so well right now. Happiness is seeing a "Out-of-Business," sign outside their doors.

I get most of my ammo in bulk from stores like:

https://www.midwayusa.com/

https://www.powdervalleyinc.com/

https://www.sgammo.com/

https://www.targetsportsusa.com/

https://www.wideners.com/

On occasion, I've noticed really good sales on ammunition from Cabelas. I order it online and have it sent to the closest store to avoid shipping charges.

And as always the LGS is a great place to buy from and give them our support.

 

[Longshot231]

I almost forgot. These guys have some decent prices on re-manufactured ammunition.

I quit buying rifle and handgun ammo from Wally World along time ago. Only thing recently I bought was the “value pack” shotgun shells. When they quit selling AR15s they lost me on the 2A. I am very lucky I have two Palmetto State Armory’s within a 20 minute drive. I don’t think you get any more pro 2A than them. They sponsor the local news here and I love it when they say “From the Palmetto State Armory studios Here’s what’s making news at this hour”......LOL It’s our local CBS affiliate and I am surprised they allow them to sponsor the local news.
