What can you say? Government by liberal intimidation seems to pretty well sum it up...

Guess the Obama admin was planning ahead buying - over the last few years - a few billion rounds of hollow point ammo illegal in international warfare use - prior to moving to make ammo unavailable to the public...

Sad.

I was afraid of this. Just when it looked like the executive order wasn´t going to work as planned, who needs one when you can threaten and get results like this? Has it really come this far?

Now we know why there was not more organized opposition to Obamacare. Scared, really scared of the Obama government. When gigantic Wal-Mart is scared too? WHAAAT in the world is happening...

The gun are useless without ammunition, of course. It´s much easier to control the availability of ammo than to locate and round up the guns.

Walmart is making a good decision for a retailer- don´t get stuck with inventory if the sale of certain kinds of ammunition may be curtailed or restricted. They are continuing to sell what they have in stock, but are not ordering anymore until they see what may happen with legislation. Walmart isn´t scared, they are just good retailers.

I just informed Walmart that I am not going to take anymore orders from them until the uncertainty of their stance on the 2nd amendment is clarified.

I just called the number given and was told they did not have any information from Corporate on this. Referred me to WalMart website for updates. I checked the Corporate link at the website and didn´t see anything. She did want to know where I read about it and I told her. She also asked for my phone number, I didn´t give it to her but surely they have caller ID.

I´ve just decided to suspend my purchasing of anything from Walmart pending the time they grow a pair and stand up to the bully tactics of the Obama Administration.

Bing search of "WalMart ammunition sales" brings up nothing... in fact, the first two hits were from the WalMart site, and it shows all the usual (including a Colt 6920), but indicates "In Stores Only", which is normal, as they don´t provide onlines sales of guns nor ammo.

There was a link to a message board about WalMart phasing out ammo sales, but that was dated 2009.

I have to wonder if this is bogus.

You have to actually read the article. Sales of ammunition has NOT changed so why would Walmart have any kind of notice on their website? They simply are not ordering any more of certain kinds of ammo and get stuck with it in inventory if laws are changed in the near future and it would be illegal to sell. Ever run a retail business?

1) There is not "Federal Gun Control Act" for the pResident to sign.
2) Joe BiteMe´s proposals won´t even be known until tomorrow.

And now Walmart has been bullied into the Vast Left Wing Conspiracy...

#11 So every other retail store that continues to resupply and reorder ammo stock doesn´t know what they are doing?

Simple response to this: Don´t shop at Wal Mart. They´ll get the message.

Don´t forget that idiot Sam Walton Jr. was a big contributer to Obama and the democrats.

Wal Mart is going to find out the hard way that once you start giving into the communists there will be no end of it until they are out of business. Fools and traitors.

I´m not shocked at all. Wal-Mart stopped selling handguns long ago in response to another gun-control surge. I bought a rifle there once--a single-shot bolt-action .22--and thought I was never going to get out of the store. I resolved then and there to take all my gun business eleswhere.

Walmart is making what probably will be a short term decision until they know more about what may be coming up. They have been remarkably successful, so I wouldn´t be quick to second guess. A profitable business is not run on emotion, it´s run on what is best to make a profit. So right now they are being conservative with their inventory dollars till more is known about any possible legislation. They´re not going to buy a lot of what they might not be able to sell because when they buy they buy in huge volume.

Ironic since you could buy 6 or 7 AR models there just weeks ago....let alone the ammo

I guess we know who and what walmart is.

I bought a youth model rifle for my daughter in 2000, when she was 11 years old, at Walmart.
They did the background check, I paid for the rifle, and they escorted me out the front door as if I were a shoplifter. I was not allowed to hold the package until I was outside.
Thanks, Walmart.

Ask ´em what happened to Smith & Wesson when it jumped on the Bildo Klintoon gun control program. Their stock lost 40% in one day, IIRC.

They escort you out to the car so nobody can say there was a straw purchase going on that they should have been aware of. Its just CYA on their part. Nobody there thinks you are a bad guy.

I called their customer service line; was told that they are considering a policy to no longer sell ammo at "some stores".
Any bets where those "some stores" are located?
