All the stores here in my area in Pennsylvania stopped all sales of firearms. Some of them still sell ammo though.
I was kinda bummed when I found out about it.
The stopped selling here in Western PA too... Not sure how they can claim a regional thing when there's a ton of hunters and target shooters in PA and they don't sell guns in this region.... Pretty amazing though they still see a market to sell the ammo.
It's about marketing. How can you sell a lot of hunting rifles in a metropolitan area of Detroit for example. It sucks for people like me that do but I guess that means I just have to travel a little further that's all. Walmart isn't the only one, Sports Authority is doing the same thing. I just hope that Dunhams isn't next but then again, they never really had a wide assortmant including Magnums like Bass Pro Shops and Cabelas do.

Oh well, I consider buying a rifle a large and special purchase anyway so traveling a few miles won't kill me (unless car accident or something).
