Blaine Wal-mart no longer selling fire arms

[eelpout]

I know, "Dont shop at Wal-Mart" but anyway, I stopped at Wal-Mart tonight on 35W and Lexington, like I occasionally do, to see if they had any of the Die Cast character from the movie Cars, in stock.  While I was there, I figured it wouldn't hurt to look at the fishing stuff.  That's when I saw it, 2 empty gun cases.  I thought they had to be changing the lay out around, but decided to ask and make sure.  "We aren't carrying gun anymore" the sales person said, I asked, "Legal reasons, financial reasons?"  his response, "Moral reasons."  I felt since it was their moral obligation to stop selling fire arms, it was my moral obligation to help then spread the word.

I say good. now the mfgrs wont be pressured into making a cheap wal-mart production model.
that and the local gun shops will again see a boost in buisness. good for them :)

St. Cloud is the same way. I asked the gun counter clerk "Do you carry or can you order Stoeger shotguns?" He replied "No" I then said "Not necessarily right now but is it possable?" He then said "I can't order anything" I then said in a slightly louder tone "Why not?" then I got my answer as he said "We don't carry guns anymore" I then replied "You probably should have started with that... you have been MORE THAN HELPFULL!!!" His bloodshot glazed eyes and moronic response actually made me glad that they don't carry guns. I would rather buy my gun from someone that has shot one at something other than people or an unlit house. No matter how convenient Wall mart can be, purchasing a firearm is not a buy that I want to make from some 18 year old stoned fool. I want to buy my gun from some one named Bill or Larry, not some punk kid who doesn't realise the power he is handling or the responsibility that comes in handling a firearm.
