Walmart ends all handgun ammo sales and asks customers not to carry in store

[DadSmith]

No. They can ask you to leave and if you refuse, you can be trespassed, but that's it.

Okay thanks for the clarification.

Waiting 'til the Fudds realize they can't get their one box of ammo they buy a year.

Will they take it bending over, or get angry?

 

[HKUSP]

Now they just did a release saying they were not bending to liberal anti 2nd Amendment groups. No AR -15 items no 5.56mm ammo. That's bending to liberals.

I think they realized that they just pissed off about 100 million gun owners. So they come out with that pothitic release.

Hmmm. They haven't even gotten my angry screed yet.

Well just for the heck of it (we needed milk and the Dragon Lady wanted a bag of beef jerky) I stopped at my local (Fishers 96th St ) WM.
The ammo case was full of most stuff and the Sporting Goods managet (Yassir) said they were told when ammo sold out ( he didn't know which type), there would be no more.
There was 5.56 in the bottom of the case.
I helped ease their burden of 50 rd 9mm in boxes by ten boxes. Now if they do stop selling it or any ammo I use, where else will I go?

probably, RK in Greenwood, maybe, LGS where the boxes are not $9.97.....
We shall see won't we!?!

Link?

I'd also like to see it before demanding my Sam's Plus membership to be refunded under their satisfaction guarantee... I've spent about $5k at Sam's in the last year... 3 boxes from them are coming THIS WEEK. If they're going to pull back their position, now is the time. If not, so be it...

Walmart is picking sides.

Another slap in the face to lawful gun owners. They are exposing their true intentions when they chose to throw in with that lot.

They are not gun friendly.

It's apparent now.

Meijer!

The last time I was in a Walmart was in May, in Shrevesport, LA when we were at Babes with Bullets. Half the people in the store were open carry. Pretty sure that store will lose money or keep stocking ammo.

Too funny.

In Indiana if they post a sign saying no weapons it now holds weight of the law correct?

Nope

No. They can ask you to leave and if you refuse, you can be trespassed, but that's it.

A posted sign CAN be enough warning to make an outright arrest for trespass but the specifics escape me. At least that is what judges have told me in court.

Yeah. Ive heard that as well. Believe we had a thread that got into the specifically on the NRA convention in Indy. Had to be posted in plain sight and be worded in a specific way. Seems like Moms who cant get action were trying to hand them out at restraunts

Been buying most of mine from Gander Mountain (or Outdoors, or whatever) for awhile... They usually have decent sales and free shipping over $99. Just gotta wait for it.

I've never bought Chinese Ammo before, and I doubt I start tomorrow.

When Sam died, the greedy ass kids ruined what was once a great American company. The left has always hated on Walmart, because, you know success. Walmart has thrived in rural America, and conservatives. We'll see how this affects there bottom line. I'm guessing they won't notice our outrage. To many people rely on Walmart, as it's the only choice. Not for ammo, but as a grocery or retail store. Drive through any small town Main Street, the grocery, hardware, and general retail stores are long gone. Now, they're head shops, or tattoo parlors.

Might be the thing that starts the 'rollback' of Walmarts from rural America?

 

[Sigblitz]

I need to go get a Starbucks and think about what to do about this.

Whelp, there's that.

I wonder what predators think of the news.

Mark this date on the calendar. A day Denny couldn't Denny. Is there a "little blue pill" type solution for this kind of failure?

Quick, somebody run over and evaluate Denny for a stroke. He's never at a loss for words/facts/info.

the "partnership" referred to in the linked article was established in 2008, per wikipedia

The current asshattery is just another logical step in that direction.

5 years or less, Walmart will sell zero guns or ammo.

An effective boycott could reduce that to a couple of weeks , which seems as likely as a Trump veto of UBC should it land on his desk.

Unsurprisingly, SGAmmo has its "Due to high volume" message in the header... at least its only up to a few days delay at the moment.

I believe it has to have some Indiana Code on it. There's a thread somewhere.

Scooped. I might look. It's late. I'm tired.

Chinese ammo has been banned from US import since 1994.

I'd like to see how a Walmart greeter reacts when they confront someone open carrying, who then simply pulls their shirt over their sidearm. I'd like a manager to explain to me how one style of carry is more acceptable than the other.
