Stopped by my local Wal Mart this morning. They are out of almost every kind of ammo. I asked to talk to the person in charge of ordering to see if they had any information on this subject. The manager I talked to said they had not heard anything…BUT. She tried to order some .223 as I was standing there. She said the order was being rejected by the corporate...

>> If Jimmy Carter gave us Ronald Reagan, what kind of president can we expect after this regime?
Good question. I hope the last couple of GOP candidates aren’t indicative. :-)
Lt Col Alan West (in a perfect world, but of course I would not vote for him because I am a racist conservative /SARC).
223 getting hard to find but I just bought 3 boxes of .40 cal FMJ and 3 boxes of 40 cal JHP at my Walmart today in Florida.
Nor do I. I’ve heard this same rumor repeatedly over the last few days, almost word for word. Conveniently, they never have a link to anything official. I have a hard time believing Walmart would drop all of its ammo orders at a time when people are buying like crazy.
And why should’nt they? EBT shoppers care less about the prices since they are spending your money and mine. More profit potential for Wal-Mart, who is in the business to make profits, not philanthropy or justice. I noticed the same trend at Grocery stores. The EBT shoppers buy $200+ at a time and have their carts loaded and overflowing. We only buy sale items and bargains.
I work there. Ammo came in on Thursday truck. Two things about a manual order.. it will say warehouse out if that is the case or the store itself can be on “no manual order” status. The second one is the most likely case. After Christmas manual orders are pretty much taboo. Store needs to clean up the backroom so it relies solely on point of sale ordering. If you notice a lot of empty sidecounters, POS ordering is the reason. As far as catering to EBT sales.. yes of course. 47% of grocery dollars are now supplied that way.
On vacation but I will check as soon as I go back, but nothing has been said about cutting of ammo in Ohio stores.
The Democrats knew many months ago that if Obama got reelected that gun control was going to be a top priority during this term. They knew there would be a run on guns an ammo and that is one of the main reasons that every agency bought millions of rounds.
Time to boycott Wallmart.
Dunno... perhaps we'll get a Konrad Adenauer?
[post-war Chancellor of West Germany]
Maybe they should be looking over their shoulders. They start a war they will NOT win.
One term of Jimmy Carter gave us Ronald Reagan.
One term of Barack Obama gave us Barack Obama.
Sadly, the tipping point has been reached and we are a different country now.
Is it Johnny Red or Sam Adams? I owe you a beer.
DOES OBAMA CONDONE KILLING?. DID HE AUTHORIZE AMMO ON EBT CARDS?
It’s somebody’s tin foil hat blog.
Where’s Humblegunner?
Holder probably said -
“help us out. Stop selling ammo for a few months. And we won’t push a union on you...”
Humblegunner rarely works on the Lord’s Day.
I sent a letter thanking Walmart for their commitment to its shooting customers. (There is a letter writing campaign going on). If they enter into any premature agreement with the government they will be losing a giant piece of their business as gun owners tend to be very loyal with their family purse.
Agree. I bought two boxes of 45 ACP on Friday.One was Federal Premium low recoil #20, and; the other was PDXI DEFENDER 230 grain #20.
