    Probably alot. It's the only reason I go there is to buy ammo.
    Maybe motor oil and filters and those cheap cans of break cleaner they sell after buying some ammo.

    They went from white cans with blue and black/red label to all white with checkered black paint now.

    With this projection of tap on and off for ammo and making headlines only indicative of how WM wants to demonstrate some sort of distributive position on ammo maybe F(*( em. entirely.

    The majority of their inventory is mostly junk anyhow.

    Gainsville VA Walmart was still bare of both ammo and firearms.

    Haven't bought or looked for ammo in probably over a year. Are the days of getting 100 shells for clays at @$20 over? Couldn't find any there (Obv) or at cabelas.

    Walmart on Ordnance Rd in Glen Burnie HAD, 2-100 rd boxes of Winchester 12ga, 10-25 rd boxes of Winchester 12ga and 4 boxes of rifle ammo of which I am not familiar with.

    I took the 2-100 rd boxes of Winchester, and the guy behind me took the rest.

    The shelves are now completely empty.

    The other customer asked if they were going to get more ammo in, and was told, according to the manager, no.

    Just heard on the news that Walmart is returning guns and ammo to the shelves.
    Looks like the sales person I spoke with didn’t really know what was going on or did the manager.

    Quarterfield road Walfart is absent of guns and ammo too; as of yesterday.

    An empty retail gun case is a sad thing to look at.

    Germantown had ammo back in the case. Saw 30-06, 308, 270, and some 22 WMR; there were others, but I wasn't interested in doing a full inventory. Not a ton available, but it was on the shelf.

    I have 2 100 rd boxes of Winchester 12ga from Walmart if anyone is interested.
    You can have them for what I paid, $25.00 including tax for each box.

    I’m in Glen Burnie.

    I live in a small town in western Colorado. I was at WM two nights ago and noticed they have plenty of guns and as much ammo as ever. I asked the sporting goods manager about it and told me she was instructed to remove everything when the policy first went out, which they did, then after two days they were told to put it back on the shelf. So apparently this is only a policy in bigger cities with large looting populations.

    the walmart in craig, co (nor any other stores there) had no primers, but i did get two 1# cans of varget there.

    I've been able to get powder as well with a little searching, not easy, but what I've wanted. Also picked up some Varget. Was at Bass Pro in Hanover yesterday, and their powder shelf was super thin with not much variety. Lot of people buying guns though.
