We have a long heritage as a company of serving responsible hunters and sportsmen and women, and we’re going to continue doing so. Our founder, Sam Walton, was an avid outdoorsman who had a passion for quail hunting, and we’re headquartered in a state known for its duck hunting and deer hunting. My family raised bird dogs when I was growing up in Jonesboro, Arkansas, and I’m a gun owner myself.

Hey, Fudd, 2A has not one damn thing to do with hunting. Some ass was just on Tucker making the same argument. Tucker didn't correct him.

There is less expensive ammo available. Have it shipped right to your door.

As for the Red Chinese stuff you can get at Walmart - try to avoid it. Yes, I've bought some of it but find it harder and harder to justify.

That was a good find in regards to the knives. Get them before the tweakers of Walmart do. :)

It never occurred to ANY of these pinheads that if there’s going to be another ‘horrendous shooting’, the perp ain’t gonna care about local gun laws or honor ‘pretty please with sugar on top’ polite requests. He’s going come in with blood in his eye and start emptying mags. I’d rather be in a Walmart or a Kroger with every third person packing heat (including ME), rather than with a herd of compliant sheep with targets on their backs. As far as Walmart goes, there are thirty sporting goods stores within driving distance who would love my business, so eff them and the horse they rode in on. Besides, I order my bricks online and get it cheaper. But keeping inventory of nine different calibers can be a real bear.

Fill your cart then ask for ammo. When they decline, leave your cart and head to the exit..They might get tired of re-stocking.

***Everyone carries handguns in AK everywhere they go outside of town.***

I have read that once you step outside the city limits of any Alaskan town, you are no longer at the top of the food chain.

I was there a few weeks back in 1968 and 1969, along with Goose Bay Labrador.

Never would buy a gun at Walmart anyway. Much better places online....

I hear that lots of people ‘stocked up’ on inexpensive handgun ammo from Walmart years and years and years ago........so, meh.

They seem to be OK taking it out on us.

To stop selling handgun ammo in AK is plain stupid. Why TF would they do that? It makes no sense?

This would make me stop shopping at Walmart if I hadn’t stopped in 2012 when they gave 0bungles a $1 million dollar campaign contribution.

Walmart is just a shell of what it was when Sam Walton was alive anyway. Once a majority of products were made in the USA. By 2000 it was almost all made in China.

People in the U.K. and Australia issued this warning to us years ago. Pay particular attention to their words for us near the very end of the video.

Wow. Walmart made so much money off of this ammo. Guess I wont be going there any more since I have no reason for it now. They might as well close shop because their hunting ammo choice is of very poor quality and specialty shops is where people go too for this.

I will buy ahead supplies online.

I haven’t looked for ammo online since the end of The Great Ammunition Shortage.... now, the first one I found is called ammo.com

I can’t vouch for them but I like what I see... the mission statement, cost, website (design and ease of use). There must be many other good sources of ammo online.
