Just got back from Walmart, no ARs on the shelf at all. I asked the clerk, says they got a memo from Walmart, that’s all he knows. Anyone know anything about this?
Walmart here no longer stocks AR15s. Store clerk stated the company will stop selling the kind of “assault weapons” used in mass shootings. Another clerk stated Colt no longer makes ARs…
.
Our local WM manager told me they are not going to stock any AR’s but you can order them.
Hate to hear this.
.
ours still has 6920s???
Still have the Windham guns on the shelf here in GA. I’m not sure how you would buy one though as NOBODY is ever at the counter!
All the local Walmarts here sold out last week, not coming back anytime soon. They did let some models go as low as $499, don’t think it was colts though.
If your Walmart still has ARs go get one rung up. I’ve seen guys saying they bought Magpul 6920s for 499 and Bushmasters for 250. Only thing is they weren’t advertising the sales. Needs to be rung up.
I wasn’t looking, but I saw a Mini-14 or Mini-30 at my local Wal-Mart.
Not really the same thing, but, you know. Evil black rifle.
223 is assault weapon ammo
308 is sniper ammo
22lr is Saturday Night special and assassin ammo
And Target is taking down signs that say Boys or Girls Toys.
They sold out American manufacturing, you think they won’t sell out the 2A?
Yep, looks like Wal Mart dumped ARs. Wish I had known about the $499 sale.
At any rate, regardless of who wins what and who is running, the 2016 election cycle is going to be a full on panic buy that will be worse than any we’ve seen before. It has now become a cyclic fact of life. There is no possible Democratic nominee who won’t scare the hell of the the gun community and quite a few GOP candidates that give us the same concerns.
If you really want an AR-15, buy it NOW while they are cheap, and pretty much in stock everywhere. Get ammo too, don’t balk at the price. Come November 2016 people will be paying $3 a round for 5.56mm. It’s going to get stupid.

I have never seen an AR-15 at a Wal-Mart.
The only one close to me that carries guns only has lever actions, 10-22’s and pump shotguns. They had a Mini-14 on the shelves one time about 2 years ago and I haven’t seen one in there since.
I had friends go to Walmart during this sale.
It was posted. But the Colts remained at $907.
Wind ham, bushmaster, etc were $499-629
A buddy of mine picked up an AR-10 for $600.
The 3 closest to me don’t carry any either. They also keep what little ammo they have locked behind glass. You have to summon an employee for assistance. **** them. With the availability of firearms/ammo right now, there’s no reason for me to shop at WM for that stuff.
I would venture a bet that the things werent selling. The AR market is in the dump right now. WM will probably start stocking them again after the next panic heats up.
All Walmarts here stopped carrying anything firearm related around 1999/2000. That being said this isn’t the first time WM is dumping guns. The market is saturated and most likely they are not selling much

Happened here too. What a deal.
Arik,
I’ve bought 2 Colt LE6920’s at my local Walmart and as far as I know they continue to sell them, plus ammo, though I haven’t been there in 2 weeks.
Last time there, I bought 2 boxes of Federal 9mm.
Our local WM hasn’t bothered to restock the scope display in months. It’s like they’re selling off their current inventory and not reordering it.
