Went by the local walmart tonight to see if they got anything in. Nope, and the display case that formerly held rifle and pistol ammo is now full of car stereos and radar detectors. A couple of other people walked down the aisle and said
 . It wasn't like that yesterday.
The boxes of 20ga and 410 shotshell are still there, but have not been replenished in quite some time. |

We used to buy guns and ammo at Target when I was a kid. Go figure! I got my first firearm there, a Marlin 25 with a Weaver V22 scope for 40 bucks.
Times are changing. |

Already happening, the Walmart by me has no gun related stuff at all. Guns at nearly every Wal Mart are no longer sold. I wouldn't doubt it a bit if Wal mart got out of the ammo business as well. The future will be online ordering of ammo my friends. That will be your cheapest option as it gets harder find locally every year. Gander, Scheels, etc. are a complete joke on prices, so they are out of the question (and were really high priced wayyyy before all this Obama/AWB stuff). |

When I was a kid you opened up the Christmas catalog from Sears etc. and they had guns. You filled out the paperwork for your order and sent it in and they delivered a nice new gun to your house. |

Quoted: I saw a grocery store in Virginia that sold guns and ammo, including handguns. This was about 12 years ago, near Harrisonville.Quoted: Quoted: We used to buy guns and ammo at Target when I was a kid. Go figure!
