So Walmart is dropping most ammo

Don't care. Don't shop at Walmart and haven't for the last 10 years. Their parking lots suck because of their clientele. You have to be worried about leaving your car in the parking lot and wonder if will still be there when you get back, or wonder if someone hit it and took off, or burglarized it and stole your stuff. Also, because of their clientele, the parking lot is full of land mines in the form of soiled diapers that people intentionally dumped in the lot.  :-[  It amazes me why anyone would shop there, except for illegal aliens and ghetto dwellers.

I'm one of the people who hasn't spent a dime in a Walmart since Old Man Walton died. What his heirs have done to the corporation is a travesty to the Walton name. So if they slide a little further down over this, I don't care.

Dick's Sporting Goods did the same thing with assault weapons first, and now they are eliminating ALL firearms from some of their stores- eventually all of them. In a recent interview Ed Stack, CEO of Dick's and son of the founder, said that if individuals won't make decisions then corporations have to do it for them. His removal of assault weapons cost the company $250,000,000. Yes, that's "ONE QUARTER OF A BILLION" in sales and destroyed merchandise. He says he is willing to take a bigger financial hit to control gun ownership in this country.

I don't care either way. Personally, I never had a use for Dick's, Sam Walton's passing changed the demographic of Walmart's customer base, and I will still fight for my rights  regardless of what corporations do.

Was in my local Walmart yesterday. All guns, ammo, anything gun related is gone including slings, scopes, cleaning kits, etc. I'm going to assume that the decision as to what they sell is somewhat controlled by the sporting goods manager. My nephew says his Walmart is out of guns and is having fire sales on ammo but everything else is being restocked. I've personally never shopped Walmart for anything gun related. My local gunshop is cheaper.
In regards to Dicks, I've only been in their store once right after they opened their first location here. All I saw was grossly over priced clothes. The gun counter prices were so high I could buy the same gun at my local gunshop and save 30-40%. I've never bothered to go back. If Dicks closed up I wouldn't even notice they're gone. They don't do much business here.
