my mom is actually a big-wig manager for one of the top grossing walmarts in the country.

we had a conversation about this a while back because i've had the same issues, even going into her store where they know me.

She said it basically boils down to liability and that sooner or later walmarts are going to stop carrying guns and ammo alltogether. She said the stores have been sued several times and forced into settlements for even selling ammo and guns legally. They had one guy go into a store, buy a shotgun and ammo and go into the parking lot and blow his own head off. She said on that one the family sued everyone from the greeter at the door to the checkout person to the managers on duty.

At least in her store it's very open policy that if you dont feel right about a sale you refuse it. That was kind of a foreign concept to me but she said she's done it several times herself.

They have pulled the guns out of her store entirely and she said they are slowly doing it with all the stores. She said the ammo is next on the list.

I can't say i blame them on those decisions. The laws need to be fixed so that you can't hold every tom-dick-and-harry responsible for your own silly actions.
