    Walmart lifts restiction

    I don't know is it's been mentioned yet or not but I'm inside my local Wally mart here in Tracy and I just noticed that they lifted there 6 box limit on ammo. I was delighted that I bought 10 boxes of 22 ammo that I badly needed. The 22 ammo is spilling off the shelves!!

    I bought some Federal Auto Match at Vacaville on Friday(3 boxes) and had to go back Saturday to get 4 more boxes, maybe they did not get the memo. After the Vacaville stop, I hit W.M. in
    American Canyon and they said I could buy as many boxes as I wanted, go figure!!!! They didn't have anything that I really needed though.

      Bout time. I thought it was strange that there was a limit by the box. I told the cashier that it was stupid because some boxes had 50 and some had only 5 or 20 rounds. "So, you're telling me that I can buy 300 rnds. of 45 or 9mm, But only 120 rnds. of 5.56 or 30 rnds of buckshot?" I showed him my middle finger, Told him to stuff it in the suggestion box, and left with the ammo I was going to buy still on the counter. To limit by the box and not the roundcount was just LAME! Haven't been there since.

        In Bakersfield,the person at the counter told Me that there is a 6 box limit when My wife and I were there.So in unison we took one side step away from each other and we bought 6 boxes each.It pissed the lady off to no end.enough for her to say"I'll allow this stunt this time only" we said whatever and split w/our 12 boxes

              The lady at the sporting goods counter said I can buy the whole ammo cabinet if I wanted to. I had to stand there and think about it for a minute.

                Several months ago, I actually had a guy approach me at Wal-Mart and asked me to purchase 6 (more) boxes of .22lr for him. He was headed to some kind of shooting event, and need as much .22lr as he could get his hands on.

                I've also used my wife to bypass the box limit. Not sure if the Milpitas Wal-Mart has lifted the restriction yet. Now that I'm reloading the only ammo I need to buy is .22lr.

                  Yup all restrictions lifted from the San Bernardino and Redlands stores. In the three days, my shooting buddy has bought 4k Mini-mags and 1200 Stingers, and that didnt even dent their shelves. CCI products galore, they're stocking plenty of Mini and Maxi Mags, shorts and Stingers now.

                    I swung by the Mountain View Walmart today. They had lots of 5.56, 9mm, 40 S&W and 308 among other things but no .22LR and no .45ACP, I have not seen either one of those at this location since Hussien got elected

                          This is good news but I am still glad I reload. Wally World sells shot-shells so cheap it is hard to reload that - at least yet.

                            you are fu*king stupid and rude. The cashier didnt make up that rule and if you spend a moment to think about that rule in your little brain of your you would agree.
