Why not its the biggest seller around now. My Wal-Mart still sells long guns but I would like to see them sell hand guns

What state are you in?

Because Wal-Mart sells them around here.

Heh, they probably noticed it's one of those particular items that did not see a drop in sales despite the economy. Of course they will continue selling them.

My WalMart stopped carrying them a year ago, maybe more.  It's a store-by-store decision from what they told me.

They never stopped here.

There is one about 40 miles in a college town that never sold them, only ammo. I don't know the reason they never did. There is a Dicks about a mile from them that does sell.

He said the reason they stopped was because it was getting to a hassel but decided it was now going to be worth it.

Iowa and their is a Walmart 50 miles away that stil sells them, there are two in that town and ony one of them sells them. It will be nice having the one in my ome town selling them again.

My local WallyWorld clerk told me that the employees didn't want to handle firearms because the managers threatened them with their jobs if they screwed up the paperwork.  Apparently the risk of exceptions on an ATF audit isn't worth the reward of the WallyWorld wage.

Ours never stopped either.  



They do a thriving business in guns and ammo.

Every wall-e world within at least a 100 mile radius of me quit selling guns quite a while back.  I knew that they were still showing long guns on their website, but didn't realize that you could have one shipped to a non-selling store.  I'll have to check into that.  

Actually, a bunch that they show on line say "not sold online",  "in store only".  So that makes a lot of sense.

They used to list the prices online, now it's "varies by store".

It's still pretty competitive in pricing.  I've priced all kinds of stuff from them, and they are usually equal to or below the local shops (in most cases).  Sometimes local shops get big discounts b/c they order 100+ of the same model gun and have them "laying about" everywhere, but Wally World isn't too bad...

Maybe they can exert influence and get Chinese made M14 and 1911s imported again.
