Walmart Is Not Ordering Anymore Ammo
Investment Watch ^ | 01/12/13 | Darrell

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...

I sent a letter thanking Walmart for their commitment to its shooting customers. (There is a letter writing campaign going on). If they enter into any premature agreement with the government they will be losing a giant piece of their business as gun owners tend to be very loyal with their family purse.

“If Jimmy Carter gave us Ronald Reagan, what kind of president can we expect after this regime?”

Could be the Second Coming, or maybe another Pinochet.

I’ll hold my judgement until I hear something official from Walmart.

With the stupitiy of the current EBT voters and the well greased fraud machine, what do you think?

Factor in amnesty creating millions more democrat voters.

These bastards have been planning for a long time, while Boner and the wimp RINOs postured and did nothing.

My local Walmart had just received .223 Ammo on Friday morning and quickly sold out. They are expecting more.

A recorded conversation with Walmart is on the site along with Walmart’s phone number.

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.

Means better profits for the ammo industry as they aren’t forced to accept a low take-it-or-leave-it offer from Walmart and can sell to other outlets at a better price for their bottom line, which will in turn likely bump the final consumer cost. But that’ll keep companies in business, ammo in the hands of those who need it, and money out of the hands of people who fold like a Walmart card table.

How long did you last there? I made it 9 months. I was in the Meat Dept. (No jokes) One of the most popular things we had were the white 10 lb boxes of hamburger patties.

For a while, we were just out of them. I'd show them the Telxon, saying 'Warehouse Out.'.

Well, can't you get some from the other store?(Two Walmarts in town.)

They have the same distributor as we do, so they're out as well. I'll be glad to call the Meat Manager there, and let you talk to him.

Never mind, I'll go there myself.

I'm sure when he got there he saw another Telxon saying 'Warehouse Out'.

That's a bad choice if I ever heard one. Never quit drinking.

The improper use of the word “anymore” is proof this is BS

This isn't your father's America. The moochers, looters and inner city tribal parasites outnumber the producers. The next POTUS will be even worse.

A local hallmark store is going out of business. The owner told me that over the last three years her regular customers and people who live in the affluent areas have significantly cut back. She said, however, that the EBT types are buying as if they have no financial worries. That’s because they don’t....for now.

We just had that replay election, and this time the GOP ran Mitt Romney against Carter, and Carter won.
