WalMart Suspends Ammo Orders Pending Gun Control Decision

[Dale00]

"We take this issue very seriously and are committed to staying engaged in this discussion as the Administration and Congress work toward a consensus on the right path forward."

-- David Tovar, Vice President, Corporate Communications

Crony capitalists going along to get along and probably expecting a break in their Obamacare costs. The Bill of Rights is apparently not a consideration in their business model.

I'll be suspending my patronage of Walmart during their suspension of ammo sales and likely indefinitely. I order mostly online and there's plenty of other grocery stores.

If walmart won't sell me ammo then they won't be selling me anything else either.

I'll be sure to let them know precisely why they lost my business.
You do the same.

Should we organize a protest outside WalMart to let them know how mad we are about this? No camo plz...

I talked to my son earlier today. He's going to college & works as a WalMart department manager (used to be over sporting goods). He said his manager told him he got an e-mail a few days ago explaining they were going to get ammo from wherever they could. I guess the jist of it was they might need to use different sources to obtain ammo.

If this is true, something changed. Obviously, neither my son or the store manger is high up the chain. The e-mail could've come from a regional manager that didn't know what was coming. This is very disappointing if true. I hope it's temporary. We desperately need WalMart to back our 2nd amendment rights.

I see this lasting as long as it took you to type your post!

As long as I dont forget, I dont really like shopping at homeland but I'm gunna, maybe help out the Crescent grocery store and shop there, its going to be more expensive but it'll be fir a good cause. I'm going to take thst article and post it on Facebook, I know it will be spread there by a few hundred people.

Just got off the phone with them, and I'm sure what is being told is going to vary from Service Rep. to Service Rep depending on how loose-lipped they are; but the fellow I spoke to wasn't very forthcoming in any knowledge of possible changes that might be in place for ammunition sales. He just affirmed that WalMart will continue to sell ammunition as they have always done, but to keep an eye on the corporate website for any news concerning the matter.

What is in the pipeline will still come. No new orders are being placed. Ammo will still prob be there for a month. After that, probably all gone.
