The Walmart story was a fabrication to gin up 2A defenders.
Walmart is in the same predicament as every other retail supplier.
They can’t supply what can’t be got. Hell, I go to my local Walmart and ain’t nothing on the shelves.
This happened in 2008 and after about a year I could suddenly find ammo after two years gun prices started to rationalize, as did supply.
Both “can’t supply” and “on hold”.
Two first person accounts on this very thread.
