“As of right now WalMart is not going to be making any new orders of ammo because of the upcoming decision on the Second Amendment. As of right now we are unsure of what new legislation might be coming, and because of this, we are suspending new orders.

“We will continue to sell what is already in stock in stores and at our distribution centers, but any new orders will not be shipped until the issue is resolved.”

Copied this off the internet , heres the num to call the corp. headquarteres 1-800-925-6278

Looks like it is just a "heads up"

I checked 3 different wal marts in my area for ammo. All 3 are completely wiped out. Sad that the crazy people in America are causing all this and Barack is as unamerican as you can be by trying to ban certain weapons.

Don't complain about the decision Wal Mart has made. STOP SHOPPING there! My wife and I spend will not another dime in Wal Mart until they come to their senses. If every legal gun owner would refused to shop at Wal Mart over their stupid decision, I promise they would reverse course in a matter of weeks. Remember, it's all about money for these retailers and they'll come to their senses if you hit their earnings hard.

I haven't bought anything from walmart in a long time but I'm sure they don't miss me. It would take millions of people to stop going there before they even noticed.

Heres the story that started this.

BREAKING & CONFIRMED: Wal Mart Is NOT Going To Order Any More Ammo

"Stopped by my local Wal Mart this morning. They are out of almost every kind of ammo.
I asked to talk to the person in charge of ordering to see if they had any information on this subject.
The manager I talked to said they had not heard anything…BUT.
She tried to order some .223 as I was standing there. She said the order was being rejected by the corporate office. Said she had never had that happen.

She called corporate as I was standing there.
And was told this. “As of right now Wal Mart is not going to be making any new orders of ammo because of the upcoming decision on the second amendment”. Said, “As of right now we are unsure of what new legislation might be coming, and because of this, we are suspending new orders. We will continue to sell what is already in stock in stores and at our distribution centers, but any new orders will not be shipped until the issue is resolved”."

In talking to the local management their calling it a hoax. They said all inventory needs are software generated, they do not call in orders.

I don’t believe anything about this story.


Yes! A Weatherby does kill them deader.

You're spot on about taking millions of people before the notice, but last numbers I heard was the NRA was 4.5 million people strong. One would hope the NRA would make a push to start punishing these retailers with boycotts.

Another comment from a Walmart employee.

"You are absolutely right! Everything on the shelves is scanned into their computers and when it is scanned at check out it is recorded and reordered, if stock is getting low, and the corporate office decides to continue selling the product it will be reordered. It is a little more complicated than what I just described but no employee at a Wal-Mart store can just pick up a phone and place an order. Heck even the Temperatures of their coolers and freezers are monitored and controlled by their corporate offices."

I can second the orders being rejected part. I was talking to the sporting goods manager at a local Wal Mart and he said the same thing. He told me they still get ammo in daily but they only get what the distributor sends them. They cant actually pick what they want right now.

Another comment.

"All merchandise is replenished automatically based on demand and current inventory levels in their inventory management system directly to their vendors.

The very notion of a sales clerk lifting the receiver for that purpose is laughable."

I agree with one of the previous statements....quit shopping at Walmart!
I think every hunter, shooter and for sure every THF member should boycot Walmart for everything.
I realize that collectively we may be a pimple on an elphants rear but if everybody takes the attitude that their vote means nothing, then it will.
You have a choice and a voice, excercise it as best you can.
As was previously stated Money talks.

I also think every hunter/shooter should support the NRA or SCI or any other organization trying to protect the 2nd Ammendement

You know the old saying "money talks and BS walks". We shouldn't let the retailers treat us law abiding citizens like $£@T without making them hurt financially.

I this is true, each one of us should take a stand and stop giving them our money. I've read for weeks on this forum just how passionate everyone feels about our Right to Bear Arms and willingness to fight. If what everyone has said is really true, then take a stand! Will it be inconvenient to not shop at Wal Mart, will your wife be unhappy and will it cost more to shop somewhere else? The answer to all of these questions is probably YES, but so what.

Like I said, retailers are about making money and boycotting these stores is the most effective we can fight.

If you read my post a little more careful I said "If this is true". No hysteria on my part, I'm just voicing my opinion of what each of us should do it the story were true.
