    Rumor or possible truth ?

    Was in a local Walmart last night talking to the ammo person who opens the cage for you. I mention to them how i've noticed they have been VERY WELL stocked these last few months and person said "Not set in stone but a possibility that Walmarts in Cali will stop selling ammo after Dec"

    Anyone else hear something like this ? It will suck because at the least Walmart has good prices , they may not have brands or certain grain you'd like but the price is usually good.

    My walmart guy told me they were getting new software and training certain employees to handle ammo sales. Same guys that do the fishing licences. But he could be wrong I suppose.

      I hope the software thing is the truth and it sounds like a good deal. I just kept wondering why there was so much ammo all of sudden so I asked , it seemed odd to me.

          Either way, are you putting your ammo future into ONE store?

          Better stock up while you can.....use the Walmarts and local FFLs as needed, later.

                  Yeah, Walmart Corporate Brass regularly update all the individual store sales associates. Not. The local Walmart employees know nothing more about future Walmart plans than what you read in the newspaper.

                    I will axe my brother in law. He works as a manager for Wally World. He should know or get a heads up. I will see him Saturday.

                      Funny, Walmart will probably one of the few retailers that won't gouge the consumer. If they stop selling, it all over for the middle income shooter.

                        The manager(sporting goods) at my local walmart told me that they plan on selling ammo next year and are going to comply with new law. So take that for what its worth.

                          Dicks already frisks you, ask ID and requires you to check US Citizen/Resident or Alien, before they sell you ammo, so not much change in procedure for them!

                          I think there will be a lawsuit filed shortly so lets hope this one gets sidelined.

                            I have bought ammo at Dick;s many times, they have never frisked me. You let them touch you?
