Last night at 9:45pm, i was in Wal mart. I usually pick up a box of WWB 9mm, and a WWB of .223, just to build up my stock. It comes in under $20.00 so I'm a happy camper...

Anyway I head over to the counter, there is a preppy guy there waiting for the clerk.

He asked the clerk for a "box of .380". the clerk go to pick out the WWB 100 count and the guy goes, "Is there a smaller box?". Clerk then replies, "might as well get the 100rd box its just a bit more and you get twice as many." Preppy, "Ill never shoot them all."

So as the clerk has the glass open, he asked me if I need any ammo. I replied, "yes give me 2 boxes of WWB 9mm 100 count, naw make it 3 box's, and 2 boxes of the WWB .223 40 Rd's." Clerk just smiles.

Preppy guy says, "Wow thats allot of ammo". I reply, "I try to keep at least a couple thousand rounds of each caliber. The 9mm eats 100 rounds in a few minuets." Clerk just gives me a big smile.

I wonder what was going through the preppies head...

clerk: "whatcha gonna do with all that ammo"
You: (pause) and with a non blinking stare, slowly say: " You'll find out in the papers tomorrow..."

or

You: (give them the WTF look) Haven't you been listening to the news?....It's been all over the TV and Radio...." (then promptly walk away).

Either way you're gonna really mess with their heads.

Classic. Good opportunity to educate, did ya?

I usually get from the clerk: "Anything else, there are two more boxes?"

I'm not a big WalMArt shopper, but I'll have to buy some ammo there next time I go.....as it appears that I've never had an incident of anyone asking me why........

Me thinks you are missing an oportunity for bringing them to the dark side.

Say something to the effect that you are teaching a few ladies to properly and safely defend themselves.

Then ask :Don't you think women should be able to defend themselve and not be forced to rely on some unreliable guy somewhere?"

Works for me.

Some will even ask to go along.

But then that's just me. I like to get more people voting with me than a'gin me.

That is all, carry on.

Don't bother. Most women in the NE would sooner die than defend themselves using deadly force. They'd sooner be victims. Why? It's how they are raised.

Girls in NE are also famous for saying "my taxes pay for the police to help me, so I don't need anything else"

Only got hassled at a Wal-Mart once, must have been around Christmas 2001. I'd been in full holiday party mode days, then one morning me and friend decide to go shooting.

Walked into the Wal-Mart (in very rural Texas) wearing plaid pajama pants and a blue and orange jersey. (Not my normal attire for sure, but hey, it's the party season!). Went directly to the sporting goods counter and requested a box of WWB 9mm. The 148 year old man behind the counter must have stared at me (and my ID) for about five minutes before he decided he would sell me the ammo.

Once the transaction was complete I just smiled real wide and said something to the effect of "thanks man, I gots to feed the MAC y'know!".

This is a funny quote. But in my case this almost happened. I work outdoors in the winter months doing snow operations on a toll road. I was going to Dicks to get a ski mask when I noticed they had .223 on sale.

So I picked up a box and then picked up a ski mask on the way to the front of the store. When I got up front to pay I noticed all teenagers at the register. Needless to say something had to be put back between the mask and the ammo.

Damn my face is getting blasted this winter!

I once bought 2 cases of AA shotshells from Wal-Mart. When the check-out lady realized that there were 20 boxes in those two cases (OMG!!! that is 500rounds of death in the form of #8 shot right in front of her

) she pauses and nervously says to me "I don't think its legal to sell that many bullets to one person". I think she half expected me go into Terminator mode and seemed releaved when I simply stated "I'm pretty sure you are, why don't you call the Manager". Ten minutes later I was finally out the door.

Not to hijack your thread but I went into a Super Walmart to pick up some tax software Sunday and I asked the dumb woman in the electronics department where the computer software was, she took me to the blank CD's. I said, no I need the software, she said "I don't know what that is"

. I don't stutter, lisp or speak in a foreign accent.

Since I was only there because I had a gift card to spend, I bought some ammo instead. At least the little old mad behind the counter knew what that was.

Hell, I rolled up to the checkout registers with 300 rounds of 12ga trap load and 270 clay pigeons, the foreign cashier asks me, "Why do you enjoy killing animals?"

Uhhh, last time I checked, very few living things consist primarily of petroleum pitch, but my answer was even better.

"Because they are delicious and look great on my living room wall".

Now, if Wal-Mart stocked 7.62x39, they'd see me in every couple months buying flats of it.

The only ammo I buy at Wal-Mart is .22 and occasionally value-packs of cheapo-shotgun shells. Everything else they have is very over-priced. I don't know if it's just my Wal-Mart or what, but the Winchester Whitebox value packs here are very expensive. I think a box of 100 9mm is about $17-18.

Mine has it too, but it's about 50 cents a round.

But it's expensive non-Wolf ammo.

I think the simplest answer would be "whatever I want". The two possible meanings will leave the clerks head spinning.

The only problems I've ever had is the tan vests not knowing where the .223
ammo is. It seems to get moved around alot.

.40 and, 12 gauge is usually ok though.

My local Wally word doesn't ever seem to carry any .223,
but the one in the next town over carries three of four different, deliscious
flavors of it.

I usually go to that one anyway, as thier tan vests are better at
finding ammo.

What you guys have to keep in mind is that these folks are asking because they are ignorant. They are not anti-gun, they just dont know. Educate them and tell them nicely that you go shooting and that to go through several hundred rounds is nothing.

I think they will accept that answer and will not ask silly questions next time.

But being rude and nasty will only turn them to the dark side.
