So like, the Rifle Fairy just drops them off or something?

No, the Taurus stork flies over and poops out a Colt.

 

[DP1961]

And what would be the definition of a moron?

 

[DP1961]

And what would be the definition of a moron?

Somebody who doesn't understand sarcasm without the use of colored text or emoticons?

 

[DP1961]

Sounds good!! Or disused term for a person with a mental age between 8-12 years old, and a commmon insult for a person considered Stupid!!!

 

[rugertoter]

Nothing like that in the Wal Mart near me...too bad.

 

[DP1961]

Yep, the one I fondled in Terre Haute was.

What with your superior intellect and reading comprehension..........I'd expect our fellow INGO AR shoppers to be greeted by you at said place of sale.

 

[DP1961]

Thank you, glad you picked up on that!!!

Guys, drop it.

Wal-Mart is selling Colt AR-15s.

Guys, we are winning.

Can everyone focus on this?

 

[DP1961]

Sure not a problem. And I am always in focus. Especially of my surroundings. And I to am a Operator. ( If you are not willing to give up everything you have already lost)

Asked at my Wal-Mart today. It seems only certain stores can order. All other stores just get what they get. That is unfortunate as the closest store that can order is about an hour away from me. Oh well...

The Dept Managers at Walmart can order whatever they want. If they tell you differently it's b/c they either don't know or are to lazy to do it. When I lived in a very small town in Kentucky the tiny WM there had Weatherby and Beretta Over/Unders in the rotating rack. Found out the Dept Manager liked to shoot Trap. If they didn't sell within a certain time frame he got to mark them down and sell em off. I'm sure most ended up at his or his friend's houses. Each Dept has to order certain things but also has the freedom to order anything that is available to WM. Of course if a store doesn't carry guns they can't but if they carry them they can order whatever you want. Same for Cameras.

Must be nice the walmarts in the indy metro area dont have guns at all.

 

[stratum]

Haven't seen any in the Fort Wayne area, either (yet).

I have no idea what you're talking about, both the WalMarts at Emerson&465 and County line & 65 have guns.

You gotta get out of the uppity north side and get down with us hillbillys on the south side!

On MSNBC they had a special on how WalMarts ordering system is computerized based on sales. I guess you would call it an automated ordering process where trucks are leaving warehouses on a hourly basis. I wonder if WalMart has a warehouse of guns and ammo just stockpiling everything. Ammo seems to never be delivered in our town. I have no idea about guns because they don't carry guns.

From what one guy in sporting goods told me, yeah...I think they do have a warehouse of some of their "special order" guns. I had asked about a Howa rifle and the one I was wanting came up $150 under the same rifles, same caliber, with a different finish (I was wanting it in coyote tan/brown). He called and put them on speaker phone. I heard them saying that it was a discontinued model (just that finish) and the system showed that the last one they had was shipped to another store 2 days earlier.

As far as the Colts, the same guy from above told me they were going to be getting them but he wasn't sure when they'd start shipping (he told me about 2 months ago). I've seen a Sig 556 at the Walmart closest to me for $997.

If I was thinking of buying there I might have dropped this new found knowledge on the unlucky department manager that didn't want to do his job. The thing is I just don't think I could bring myself to buy a gun at walmart. They don't even have the best price out there I don't think.
