Wal-Mart Gun Sales

[poorboy]

.im not saying wal mart is a gunsmith, so please dont assume that i am. what i am saying is. after repeatedly trying to contact mossberg, and that was a joke! i tried getting help from walmart and that was a bigger joke. they were more than happy to take my cash though. i do know if i had bought it from a gun shop there may have problems with the gun but at least i would have a individual to take it back to. or some one to atleast look it over, instead of being put on hold for a hour or two or three. but i have learned from my mistakes, i am not telling any one where to spend thier money. im just saying all of my future purchases will be at a gun shop.

Get the 10/22 you will be much happier that you did.

Nope, get a Marlin 60 or 795. way better but you can't pimp it out like you can a 10/22. So if you wanna pimp out a 160-220 dollar plinker then get the 10/22

Out of your area, but the Wally World in St. Mary's County sells long guns. The selection is up and down. Haven't seen any 10/22s but they do like to carry Henry .22s.

I picked up a Mossberg 500 at the Aberdeen Walmart about a year ago, for $180. They had a heck of a time finding a manager to complete the sale, and then had trouble finding the box, so when it was all said and done they gave me a 10% discount for my patience. No idea if they could order something not in stock, may be worth asking?

Wal-mart in Hagerstown had this afternoon a tag and space for a Mini-14 it was empty but it was there and the price was 617.

Dick's in Whitemarsh has a selection of 22's, but if you're out that way might as well stop into Gun Connection.

A friend told me Walmart could order certain lines of long guns, at Walmart prices. True?

Was at the La Plata Wal-Mart(where the discriminating white trash shop) last night and they had the s/s 10-22 for $239.(really wanted to buy it) At least I left with 3 333rd boxes of 22. It seems that they discontinue gun and ammo sales in areas where the overwhelming majority of the population cannot be trusted with Natural Rights. It is sad that we allow these "people" free acess to our society but there are no longer expectations of civility or responsibility so as our founders predicted this experiment with freedom is pretty much over. Sorry to tell you John B

I bought the display/last 10/22 at the Aberdeen Walmart on Friday. $251 after tax for the 18" all-weather (SS barrel, epoxy-coated aluminum receiver) version, I don't know when they'll get more in stock.

Yes, go to a Walmart that sells guns and ask to see the special order book at the gun counter. It used to be online but they revamped their website and I can't find it now, prices were ~80% of MSRP.

Some Walmarts are better than others. The Quarterfield Walmart has someone knowledgeable behind the counter about 50% of the time and whoever works the gun counter tends to be older in age and usually very polite. Quarterfield is local to about half of Anne Arundel, but I doubt that they'll have guns for much longer.

They carry what sells. The more purchases of an item, the more they stock. It's all part of Sam's model... stock what sells, do not stock what does not sell. A lot of decisions are made by a computer model with very little human input. It is not always political, just good business for a company that grew because the learned what their customers wanted and then made sure it was in stock at a good price.

So buy more guns from your local Walmart and they will carry more.

Not sure about Abingdon... I haven't been there in a while. Anyone else?

No go on gun sales...

The "Super" Wally World on Quarterfield had some 10/22's in stock as well as Remington 597's.

Are you looking to practice?

Might I suggest a Savage Mark II TR

Easton Md Wal Mart still sells guns, Seaford De sells em and Camden De sells em too. I bought my 870 from Seaford De. I saved on taxes and my wife works there so theres another 10% savings

 

[Redd Byrd]

The old story, WalMart comes in an area, promotional items sell for less than the wholesale prices to real gunstores. Shortly 75-100% of full service gun stores within xyz radius close up. No more places with semi intelligent answers or full line of gun stuff. Then WM makes a political apeasement, stops selling guns or ammo in wide swaths, and there are no other options.

Sounds similar to Home Depot and local Mom & Pop hardware stores that stocked items difficult to find else where. I was told one time that Home Depot only sold what "The Public" wanted

Wally Quarterfield's catalog even has Weatherby!!!

Does Frederick still? I have been thinking of crusing up there to see if they have a Marlin Mod 60 carbine in Stainless. The old man picked one up and is it every a sweet shooting sun of a gun.

Both Frederick WW's still sell guns.
