The only place I've had worse customer service than Walmart is DICK'S. I'm starting to see a theme running through this...I stopped even going to the Walmart ammo department when I joined "Target Sports". Heck, I could never get anyone to wait on me anyway.
I go to Whole Foods whenever I need good sausage and bagels. Walmart isn't even on my radar for that. I also pick up my firearms and photography related Amazon purchases there.
Well, I'd strongly disagree with you there, although it could be a regional issue. The Wal-Marts up here sell metric crap-tons worth of ammo daily. Also, WM is consistently one of, if not, the cheapest retail (store-front) source of (most calibers of) ammo on the West Coast, particularly up in the PNW.
Not the one I go to. I've carried there many times.Does WF in Ohio, have carry ban signs like they do in TX?
Not an attack, just honest skepticism. I was serious about the business opportunity though. If there really are no decent places to get ammo in that big of an area and there are that many shooters, you probably could sell a fair bit. I don't know the exact procedure but every hardware store in this area sells ammo so I'm guessing it's not too terribly difficult.Why the attack?
Last time I even considered getting ammo at Wal-Mart was a 20 round box of 9mm HST. $36 not including sales tax, just sticker price.
Two reasons. One, back in my younger, dumber, open carry days, I was confronted by managers in two different Walmarts in different states and asked to cover my weapon. Two, I looked up the policy on the corporate website after that and it said that they didn't allow open carry. No idea if it's even possible to look up past policies like that, so I can't prove it.Why are you saying this? It is NOT true.
Walmart policy has been to go with the laws of the state they are operating in.
That must be a store by store policy as I see open carry in the Walmart's around here.Walmart has had a no open carry policy for years, just FYI. That's nothing new.
The current Walmart price for 9x19 Federal HST Micro is just over $24 per 20.

I've been looking since this afternoon for this "oh so more cheap" online ammo and haven't found it.
I would get 1k rounds of Federal brass for a little over $170 out the door from WM.
Anybody care to share a link for online brass cased that isn't more expensive?
Attached is a link for that search from Ammoseek. I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for, but it's a good resource.

I appreciate the link but just perusing the first page I'm not seeing anything that would be any cheaper after shipping than what I was getting at WM. I also wont buy reloads.
And their entire store full of chemical and preservative and corny syrup laden, prepackaged industrial food.... and their pharmacy...Since WM wants to stop selling things that can be misused and cause death and injury. They should immediately stop selling beer and wine.
Perhaps I misread the policy. It was quite a while ago. Or perhaps the managers in some stores don't enforce the policy.That must be a store by store policy as I see open carry in the Walmart's around here.
