Walmart Ammo policy

[VERT]

WalMart in Seymour has/had a two box limit. I think it is still in place. I don't mind, they have plenty available in all the flavors I like. If I need larger quantities I can hit the gun store. Otherwise it is nice to be able to pick up a couple of boxes now and again.

Interestingly enough the last .223 and .40 S&W I bought had stickers on the box that said something to the effect of: packaged for WalMart and to please report if it you find it at another store. Guess they got wise to the resellers.

NO limit Fishers 96th Street Wal-Mart for now..............plenty 9mm and .40 in stock, (sorry thats all the calibers I look at) but they had .45/38/357 etc in the case.

About 2 weeks ago, we (Wal-mart) got a notice from Home Office to remove all ammo limits.

I was in the Plainfield store yesterday and was going to get some ammo,but they had huge signs up saying " Due to unforseen problems we cant sell anything out of the locked case"

Thats been like that for 3 weeks now. They told me that someone lost the key. I told them that a lock smith could make a key for 50.00. They stared at me like sheep......

The 6 box limit signs were still hanging in the Goshen supercenter last Wednesday.

Westfield Wal Mart has removed their limit on ammo. Had plenty of 9mm, .40 and some .45.

Hey here's an idea, lets tell everyone on the internet that the limit is gone, that way someone will go buy it all, then the rest of us will be struggling to get ammo, and guess what the limit will come back. This is what I hate about the internet, some people just can't keep their mouth shut!

 

[223 Gunner]

Follow up to my last post, why not just go buy what you need and want, and let other people discover on their own if they can buy more than 6 boxes, why tell everyone and screw it up for everybody?

Just a guess, but I doubt that EVERYONE on the internet reads INGO.
I'm guessing that very few can go buy ALL the ammo at ALL the Wal Marts.
If you have to STRUGGLE to get ammo then you probably shouldn't have a gun.
If the limit comes back then it'll go away again.
Just a hint for you, part of what INGO is about is passing on information to other members.
Hey here's an idea, until you have something productive to share why don't you just read and not post.

Seems like you think wally world is the only place that carries ammo, funny...

I mainly buy from AIM, but if my memory serves me, too many people buying everything that Wal-Mart has, made it tough on all of us.
There have been many times I check Wal-Mart for .45acp and they are always out everytime I check. Other Cal.'s have made a come back, and yes there are plenty of people with disposable incomes that can buy all that a Wal-Mart has on hand. Someone in this thread stated that he and his brother bought all they had. And no I won't keep my mouth quiet, this is a public forum.

And yet you tell other members that they should keep their mouths shut. So your rules only apply to other members, not to yourself.

 

[223 Gunner]

I don't announce to everybody reading where they can go buy all the ammo, so that it is all gone when I need some.
No I am not trying to state a double standard, I was trying to be polite to you Dogman, and not word it any harsher. I have plenty of good info to pass along, you can always check my profile and look at past posts. It just gets frustrating, when I check a few Wal-Marts and they are always out of .45acp. I don't want to run the steel case stuff through my nice 1911's.
And posts like this telling everyone, who may be looking for ammo where they can go buy it all, and then try to re-sell it on here or Hoosiertopics and gouge people.

Funny, telling people to keep their mouths shut isn't how I was raised to be polite. Well now I'm going to go make a sign about Westfield Wal Mart not having a ammo limit and put it out in my front yard.

Dogman, I am going to call a "cease fire", I don't know you, but I do respect your opinion, we are all entitled to our own opinions. This could drag out all day. I don't like to argue with anyone. So whoever is reading this or will read this, they can form their own opinions and think about what I had too say the next time they need ammo and can't find any at Wally world and have too pay more for it elsewhere.
I have a cook-out to host, and we all should enjoy our long holiday weekend. We both said what we had/needed too say. So for now I will be signing off.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

+1

When I post spotting something at a local Walmart, my intention is for the info to get to a member so he has a chance of getting there in time. The people that wipe the shelves dry and have it marked up at the next gun show already have their ways of knowing, such as checking daily. Posting the info I feel is one of the best ways to let members know so they have a chance.


So true ! And as I go to more meets and shoots meeting members, the more I realize this.

Evansville walmart no longer has a limit

 

[Vince49]

Such problems! I just wish I had enough jingle in my pocket to find out there is a limit!! As it is I can only read about it here!
