NRA member speaking here : Buy them somewheres else.
WalMart is hardly relevant , give your business to the private FFL or smaller Mom & Pop gunshop is better , in my opinion.
For those with net aptitude ,there is always GunsAmerica , Auction Arms and Gunbroker.com online as well.
Leave WalMart to carry the cheapo Chinese junk that they love to sell so much of.

Agreed. In full. With applause.

Buy from folks who know firearms. Big box discounters are great at selling cheap toilet paper and frozen peas, but the folks who work in those stores rarely, if ever, know beans about guns.

Agreed. I just bought my first firearms -- Remington 870 and S&W 9mm -- from a local sporting shop that has been around for a long time and has a good reputation for quality. The guys there were very knowledgeable, patient, and answered every question I had. I doubt I'd get that level of experience at Walmart.
