Do you have some links for the Pro Gun movement that thinks this or are just pulling it out of your...

I doubt few people have ever shopped Walmart for an Ar15. I've never bought a car at Walmart either.

They should be able to sell what they want to who they want. They don't need my O.K.

You can't buy a car at a Walmart unless it is a die-cast or remote control car.

I honestly heard about that Walmart is "un-American" for the gun ban, talking to my father this morning. I looked hard for an article but found none. However that still don't stretch out of the realm of possibilities.

From Douglas McMillon, Walmart CEO:

Quote:
"Our focus in terms of firearms should be hunters and people who shoot sporting clays, and things like that.
So the types of rifles we sell, the types of ammunition we sell, should be curated for those things.
We want to serve people who hunt and fish and we want to have a great sporting goods department."
Walmart said Wednesday that it will stop selling military-style semiautomatic rifles, including AR-15s.

I still don't understand why people are against ergonomically correct rifles that are rarely used in crimes.

Mine had a constant stream of them coming through. Windham Weaponry, Colt, DPMS, etc. Every week a different brand and I don't think they were sending them back to the distribution center.

Last week during an unadvertised clearance sale, most of the ARs were steeply discounted. I've seen pictures of the price tags showing $350.

I've bought a car through Sam's Club. $100 over invoice. Once of the easiest car purchases I've ever made.

Wal Mart doesn't get much of my money anyway, and that is just that much less they stand to get. I don't have a problem with that. It's their choice and their company.

I agree.

They still have the best price for .223 ammo unless I'm buying in thousand round bulk boxes online.
