I picked up one early in the week, then whined until the wife told me to go for it.   Friday at noon at a local Walmart - in line. Guy in front of me asked if they had any AR's in stock. Clerk said yes - guy said I"ll take them all. He wasn't even interested in the brand. He ended up with two colts, two windhams and a bushy.

I would honestly FO on all of them at that price. Depending on what the future may hold, theyll only go up in value.

Which of those three is the best deal

Bushy
Windham
Sig

Well?

Dunno but I would buy 1 of each and probably a couple of the Windhams.  Hard not to make money at that price point.  Its killing me that I can't find any WM's near me that have these...

It is weird - the Walmart closest to me does NICS on everyone (even CCW holders); the one nine miles away doesn't.

I find it especially weird because people were STILL buying $900+ Colts in my area. They'd often sell out a few days after being put on the racks.

Mine have never had ARs and nothing they do have is being liquidated.  They have a stainless steel 10/22 takedown that is like $330.00.  Unless, when they scan them, the prices are different, no liquidation in my area, SW Virginia.

Where the heck are you in sw va? I grew up in bristol and the bristol va walmart at exit 7 off 81 has had AR's many many times.


Also, not sure why you can't layaway it cause the gun counter guy at mine said several people layaway'd several of the 150$ x300u's.

The clearance prices vary wildly. My closest WM had one Colt and one SIG for $699 each. Another poster here picked up two Magpul Colts for $500 each. And then theres the OP's pic. No rhyme or reason to the prices or the stock- and its not like you'll get accurate information if you call around.

Ya, lucky bastard...I went out last night and all the black guns were gone.  They did fill the cases back up with regular rifles and shotguns....cases were full.  Ammo was almost full again on the shelf again, besides .22....its the only thing missing.  BUT, I did get 3 50rd boxes the other day...after like 5 years...couldn't believe it when I saw it on the shelf.

Mine was filling up the gun area with hunting stuff.  Full of ammo as well, even 22LR, CCI Standard Velocity.

There are 11 Wal-Mart's in my area.

5 of them do not sell guns. But thats OK, as they still had the scopes, rings, Ammo on sale.

The remaining 6 were a crap shoot. However, Thursday was a pretty good day.

They are getting out of the "Tactical" lines of all their firearms.

Not completely true. You will still be able to order one though WM, but they will no longer be stocking them in stores. Same for tactical style shotguns.

Our WM is sold out of ARs. Counter guy said they just weren't making money on them anymore. Market being flooded with cheap ARs. They do have a lot of .223 and 5.56 ammo though.

Went by my Walmart again.  No ARs and no more home defense models of the shotguns.  All the AR stocks/rails had been clearance and were mostly gone.  Also the 870 collapsing stock they had was clearanced out also.   They even clearanced out the surefire flashlights.  Seems like they don't want to cary anything remotely "tactical" now.

I've hit 5 walmarts in my area this afternoon.  I'm currently stuck in one of them while Noah's storm is raging outside...its been at least 45 mins stuck in here and it's like being in purgatory.

So far, no ARs.  No anything interesting actually.   I think north Florida is too full of neck beards and renecks that I'm too late haha.  Going to try and check two more, but even with all of these places selling guns, no ARs on the racks.  Hell, not even one of those DPMS .308s


Edit:  make that 6 walmarts I've been to now.  Still nothing

Right so, I ended up going to 8 walmarts, one of which lost power and wouldn't let people in.  Not a single one had any guns that weren't fudd.  

My consolation prize at the last Walmart was a Nikon p-223 3x BDC scope for $74, marked down from $150.  Not a bad score...figured I'd find a use for it.

And 233/556 in evil packaging, 'ammo cans, plastic green boxes and black boxes' along with some 9mm that's marked nato 123 gr.  I have bought over 3k in ammo at walmarts from Ms to pa in the last week because of this, 556 62gr lap 420rnd. Metal ammo cans on clearance for 140-170 depending on your walmart and 120rnd plastic boxes of federal/lc 55gr for $30, Zqi Single Boxes Of Nato 9 Mm For $8 And Zqi 308 Nato For $14. Stock up homies walmarts are getting out of anything but bird gun, .22 and Fudd shit. Anything that's tactical and not air soft or bb gun related is clearanced, even a tactical single shot pellet rifle in the 1200 fps range was clearanced for $40 from $95 in the last week.
