I noticed today that my local Walmart in rural PA no longer sells guns. Anybody else notice the same.

I'm not a big fan either but it's the cheapest place for groceries.

I daresay Aldi can beat Wal-Mart's prices. I know Aldi's selection is a little lame.

Here, It was common that most Walmarts sold guns then over the years some stopped selling because of low sales. End of July ALL Walmarts in NM speed selling guns thanks to new stupid gun laws

Sad to say but going to Walmart looks like 90% of the folks probably shouldn't own a gun shocked


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

I bought a gun from walmart about 8 years ago. After them taking a hour for all the paperwork and getting escorted to the door. I said never again. I support my local gunshop even if it costs a little more.

We only shop at walmart if we have to. I think I have been to it one time this year. Wife usually shops at aldi's and Kroger's.

I'm sure Remington and Savage are really hurt. Rural King across the way always has guns walking out the door.

most of the cities stopped a few years ago. Madison WI Walmart's have no guns , but Monroe and Janesville WM do.

sometimes a hassle with local laws and often just a not making money on them to justify the storage and employees .

How come they're never used in these mass shootings? For a while more minis were sold than ARs, back when there were only a few knock offs from Colt of the ARs. I bought my first mini in 1981 and have owned one ever since. Must not be "evil" enough if still in the wood stock. Had mine in a black nylon skeletonized stock for a while but end up hating it. Went back to the wood and added a home cut Maine birch forward grip. I like the action more than an AR. That sucker will shut 100% of the time, my brother's .223 AR about half the time without pushing it hard, haven't shot his AR-10 enough to form an opinion other than its a loud mother...

because the media convinced them it was no good

if you ever watched the A-team they never hit anybody with a Mini 14

but every delta force , special ops , marine recon , SWAT , ect.. movie ever made they hit everyone and they are out instantly.

keep hyping them as the most deadly thing ever and the weak minds who commit such acts will listen.

actually a benefit that they believe the hype in some ways.

the local walmart still has guns last time I checked.

however, between my house adn the walmart is a gun shop - guns, fishing, archery, trapping, its all there - and always somebody willing and knowledgeable to help.
thats where I get my guns, and most of that other stuff.

I like the way l1ranger said it. Why go to Walmart when you can buy stuff locally?

Plenty of guns at our walmart. They dont sell any AR rifles anymore, but they sell mini14s. Which i find hilarious. Plenty of ammo here too. Im so glad i dont live in a liberal cesspool. You yankees dont be getting any big ideas though, we eat tourists and yankees.

When .22 ammo was very hard to find, and when one did find it the price was through the roof, Walmart kept theirs at a decent price. The two closest to me were still selling guns and all related stuff as of last Sunday.
I was never a great fan of the stores, but shares I own in the company held up better than nearly every other in my stock investments this week.

Walmart still has guns here. We dont have many gun stores any more they were to high on prices and went under. Why would I pay 400 for a Henry goldenboy at the gun store when I can get it for 300 at Walmart. I wish we had good honest trapping and guns stores here, for the ones that do be thankful.
