No problemo. Let them lose the sales. I buy from gun show and the internet.
BTTT
Southern NH is being infested by liberals from Mass. They come to NH because there's no income tax, and immediatly start campaigning for higher taxes. Go figure.
Good for you! Since Wal-Mart caved on this, what will be the next thing they cave to!
"...and immediatly start campaigning for higher taxes."
Same thing with the Chicago libs moving into NW Indiana where my mother-in-law lives. "OH isn't this quaint. Oh aren't taxes low. But you know, we need this, and this, and this, and this...."
BTW, I buy my firearms at a local shop (keep the little guy going where I can) and my lead at the gun show.
I have been looking for gun shows to go to in my area. Can you give any tips on where to find gun shows?
There is this person at forums I go to and he is really anti-hunting and condescending. I am sure here he was at FR and got banned.
The New Yorkers have done the same thing to CT... They moved out for the low taxes and then raised taxes.
"Contacting Wally Worlds home office is a waste of time. I have emailed, called, and written letters about their sorry customer service 2-3 times and never got a response. Taking the guns off the shelf should make the Wal-Mart worshipers on FR happy."
Nothing like throwing cold water on a guy's idea. Almost like a DU troll. I said almost in case you aren't.
I say still write the letters and call!

Don't know where you're at, but the American Rifleman NRA magazine lists gun shows every month. Beware, not all gun shows are created equally. Most I've been to have good eals on amm and lots of other stuff, but usually overprice guns.
You should also post this at some of the larger gun related forums. Here's a couple to get you started:

Just curious how you know this decision was based on "caving" in to anti-hunters. Are you certain it wasn't based on sales? Wal-Mart is all about maximizing revenues by the square inch. Were you told that this was a PR decision, not a business decision?
lol, well i guess gunshows won't be my thing then. Before Hurricane Rita hit I bought 10 boxes of 30-30 ammo for my trusty rifle and I didn't have an opportunity to fire a single shot. oh well, maybe there won't be a limit on the amount of deer I can kill this year. east texas has been overflowing with them.
Here in the South, we've had folks coming down from up north (land of high taxes and excessive laws) for decades, and once here they try to make us do things like "They did back there."
Southernors are real tired of these folks.
Walmarts in my area suck big time. Employees are bitter (for whatever reason, I think part of it is the fact that they are bitter they have to work instead of collecting a welfare check)and hateful towards customers. People need to start supporting their small town local businesses and give Walmart the finger.
