Walmart to stop selling ammo.

[unc4corners]

Pistol ammo that is...
They are also asking costumers to not open carry anymore.
Not sure how you can enforce that policy.
This sux.  They have good cheap plinking ammo.

This guarantees there will never be another shooting in a Walmart huh?

[cincydawg]

They requested no open carry, which initially will invite more of it of course.

They are responding to what they perceive are market forces.  Most of their sales go to folks who probably favor "common sense gun controls".

Proper grip of course is part of that.

I buy most of my ammo from cheaperthandirt.com.

I doubt that they strictly enforce this in any measure in the South. Especially the open carry. I see people doing it regularly.

Of course, Walmart has been on a slow course to extinction for several years now.....maybe they decided to speed it up. Kinda like NASCAR trying to appeal to the left wing, Walmart can never win this course.

Regardless, I support their right to screw up their business if they so choose.

Walmart has been reporting record sales and profits of late.

[TakeThePoints]

I feel safer already.

I carry everywhere regardless of any lame "no firearms" signs.  (with the exception of schools and gov. buildings, of course.)

That is not always an indicator of long term health.

The only reason they're doing this is to limit the future liability they know will be legislated after Trump isn't re-elected.

The panic buying hasn't begun yet, but it will soon.

Now is the time to buy whatever you've had your eye on...

Yup.

I actually think it is more likely that Democrats win the Senate than the White House in 2020.  However if Democrats sweep, which is possible, you will see panic buying immediately afterward unlike anything previously.

No, but the recent history has been positive.  I don't see a core reason to think that will turn negative, maybe Amazon.  They appear to be handling Amazon fairly adeptly.  That said, I don't own any WMT stock.

Trump WILL NOT be reelected.

If the R's also lose the Senate there will be some chaos.

Buy now. November 2020 isn't the time to be trying to stock up.

Why stock up on something that is going to be confiscated?

Maybe you underestimate the backlash?

Or maybe it's just a good idea to be ready for the boogaloo

Let's make a deal.  You come break in and steal mine and I'll come break in and steal yours.
