Holy post count batman.

Ok, Fuck WM!

300BLK?

Or everything shorter than a .30-06?

"short-barrel rifle ammunition that can be used with military style weapons"



Can these people just stop being retarded, for just one day?

This move might actually piss off and wake up some fudds.  Especially if they stop selling .22LR

no offence, but people like to verify things

Well that is handgun ammo.

I’ll never spend another dime there on anything.

Welp...I guess I'll just continue never going to walmart like I have my entire life.

Kind of shitty to basically call the deputy a liar, now isn't it?

Oh, here's your "memo":

Walmart

Good.

Maybe more independent dealers will be able to return to a profitable business model after being forced out by the big box stores.

Walmart has contributed more to the fall of society than any other corporation.  
They want to disarm us now just like the Democrats.

i guess i'll continue to not shop at walmart....and just add this to the ever-growing list of reasons why

fuck walmart

any chance we can dig up Sam and bring him back into the company?

Lots of future blading at 45....

Bought a Maverick 88 at WM couple years back and it was a pain to be perp walked out the front door

The only semis I can remember seeing at WM in recent times are 10/22s and maybe a rem semi .22 and a BAR.  Everything else has been bolt or shotgun but our WMs dont have a great firearm selection anyways.

As long as they sell 22lr and 12gauge...That's all I buy from wal-mart

I don't care...

I get my pistol and rifle ammo from another source....

Yes you should totally pay double price to support local shops.

If this is true I see a bunch of group buys being done in Kodiak soon or a bunch of rule breaking going on at the Coast Guard base.

If true, this could prove disastrous for the ammo and gun industry. I believe Walmart sells more guns than anyone else.

If they could stop then they wouldn't be legitimately retarded, and they are, so no.

apparently Walmart doesn't want poor people to be able to defend themselves

and yes I shop at Walmart

So Walmart is going Fudd.

Tbh went a few weeks ago. Did not see 5.56 or 7.62x39 on the shelf

Just came through on Yahoo Finance

it's the cheapest place for ammo in CA. no net sales. no walmart. LGS rape people it's unreal.

Yep

Sam Walton is rolling over in his grave.

I wonder if they will be clearancing all the shit they're going to stop selling. Looks like the WM clearance thread will be getting longer.

Exactly. One of the big brick gun stores in my AO has no prices on the guns. Everything is MSRP and when you ask what the price is they throw out a number like they are doing you a favor. You never know what a gun is going to cost from 1 day to the next. Screw that.

Walmart (WMT) is proposing bold changes to its gun policy that will end sales of certain weapons, following a deadly mass shooting at one of its stores in El Paso, Texas, and an incident days earlier at another location in Southaven, Mississippi.

The retail giant will keep its plans to end the sale of certain types of ammunition, exiting the handgun category completely, and asking shoppers not to carry firearms into its stores—even in open-carry states.

In a company-wide email, Walmart said it will discontinue sales of short-barrel rifle ammunition such as the .223 caliber and 5.56 caliber. Those are commonly used in some hunting rifles, but can also be used in large capacity clips on military-style weapons.

In addition, Walmart said it will completely exit the handgun category by ending the sale of handgun ammunition — including in Alaska, the last remaining state where they had been available.

“We know these decisions will inconvenience some of our customers, and we hope they will understand. As a company, we experienced two horrific events in one week, and we will never be the same,” CEO Doug McMillon wrote in an email.

“Our remaining assortment will be even more focused on the needs of hunting and sport shooting enthusiasts,” he added. “It will include long barrel deer rifles and shotguns, much of the ammunition they require, as well as hunting and sporting accessories and apparel.”

Asking shoppers not to open carry

The CEO also “respectfully” requested that shoppers no longer openly carry firearms into the stores, even in states where the law permits them to do, so unless they are authorized law enforcement officers.

Since the El Paso shooting, McMillon noted that there have been “multiple incidents” of people trying to make a statement by testing the store’s response to openly carrying weapons. One instance inadvertently caused an evacuation.

“We believe the opportunity for someone to misinterpret a situation, even in open carry states, could lead to tragic results. We hope that everyone will understand the circumstances that led to this new policy and will respect the concerns of their fellow shoppers and our associates,” McMillon wrote.

Back in the day the outdoors section wasn't bad at all. I bought lots of fishing stuff, hunting gear, clothing, ammo and guns there.

Walmart screwed the pooch by slashing and burning that section. Oddly they did the same thing with their crafts/quilting stuff which I believe has given Joann Fabrics a huge boost over the past decade or so.

They've let some real idiots take over, and they forgot who their customers are.

Just got a FoxNews flash on my phone that said they're even stopping sales in AK.

Same went out to local PD/Sherrifs.  Fuck WM.

something, something, their store, something rules, etc, etc ....

not trying to be edgy or cool but I haven't stepped foot in a Walmart in years, honestly years

Just on Fox, this is nation wide in states that allow open carry and they will stop selling ammo for short barrelled rifles!  ????????????????????????????  Walmart is the new Dicks!!!!

The upcoming walmart clearance threads are going to be epic. Neckbeards of the world are salivating at the chance to buy an entire store out at 75% off instead of fighting over one rifle/shotgun in each store.

Maybe the two cans of ZQI 9mm at my local store will finally come down in price.

I wouldn't shit in the bathroom of my lgs.

May I please pay 15.00 a box for that 9mm fmj sir? May I have another?

Fuck that

Extrapolated from;

The Bentonville, Arkansas-based discounter said Tuesday it will stop selling short-barrel and handgun ammunition after it runs out of its current inventory. It will also discontinue handgun sales in Alaska, marking its complete exit from handguns and allowing it to focus on hunting rifles and related ammunition only.

So;

10" and 14" Contenders are safe

We asked what that meant.  WE were told that meant 5.56,.223 and 7.62x39.  Of course, I could be lying....

he needs an open carry Glock 42
