Default RE: So how do you like Wal Mart now?

I just called Wal-Mart customer relations and the guy on the other end told me that on March 6th they started to remove firearms from a total of 1000 stores accross the counrty. I asked if this included all hunting equipment and he said it did not at this time. I asked why this was taking place and was told that gun sales were not making enough in these stores to continue their sale.

I buy most of my guns at gun shows and small, local shops. But, I’ve got family that hunt and fish and can’t really afford to shop other places based on their like or dislike of Wal-Mart policy’s. I do buy some of my hunting equipment there after the season when stuff is marked down. I picked up a 15-ft two person tree-stand at Wally-World this past December for $65, a whisker-biscuit for $15, a $200 Nikon scope for $90 and there ammo is the cheapest in town. If they stopped selling equipment for hunting, fishing, camping, boating and such that would really suck for folks that don’t make much money and can’t really afford to go any place else.
