Is Wally World keeping the ammo in the cabinet back in sporting goods or up at customer service?
at mine it's in the locked cabinet in the sporting goods area; though to get someone there to help may or may not be any easier then standing in line at the front customer service section and waiting your turn there lol
I recently bought a couple of boxes of 30.06. I had to ask for it to be unlocked from the cabinet. I have seen some 12 gauge out in the open as well as some other assorted. I honestly can't remember what...as I didn't need to buy any.
Ever think Walmart just stopped ordering a lot of it and are voluntarily cutting back sales?
I know, someone knows someone at Walmart and that isn't what they are doing. I mean, for sure they would tell you right?
Strange how you can walk into a lot of stores, buy it right off the shelf or simply offer the right price and get all you want but Walmart, the largest single retail outfit in the world can't get 22 ammo.
There is no shortage. There is a shortage of people willing to pay more money to buy it.
If California passes the law making lead bullets illegal, watch how much 22 ammo hit the market at the private sales level.
Remember the gasoline shortages back in the 70s? Some people always had gasoline and drove all over the place yet there was supposedly a shortage.

All I can say is that you can't find squat at my local Walmart but you can pick what ever you want up down the road at Academy.
Edited: I did some quick searching, Walmart Corparate spoke with Eric Holder and has since refused ammo orders. One more reason I refuse to shop with Walmart.

That is VERY strange. I would think that Wal Mart's sheer purchasing power would ensure they could get all the ammo they wanted, in ANY caliber. It is also strange that I can go into 3 Wal Marts in fairly close proximity to each other, and only ONE of them (the smallest) seems to have any consistent supply of the most popular cartridges. NO uniformity across stores whatsoever!!!

i have to wonder if they feel it's even worth it right now. Lets face it, some ammo buyers the past 6+ months have been real idiots out in retail (speaking especially of .22lr buyers). Many WM's hunting sections are minimal in size, and they dont staff someone behind the 'counter' 24/7. So to watch lines start each am by the front door, or listen to customers argue about getting the last box, all to make a little profit selling a box of .22's? To be honest, if i was a dept manager i wouldnt go out of my way dealing with it until the dust settled; and heading up the chain they may be thinking the same thing.
