    Wal mart to donate unsold ammunition to Law Enforcement Dec 29th

    Take it as you will. I ran into a friend just now that’s employed in sporting goods at my local Wal Mart. They told me that word was given to them that all handgun, .223/5.56, and 7.62x39 that is unsold by December 29th will be donated to area LE agencies.

    Unsure if it’s been posted previously or not. If it has you can disregard.

    I'll have to check with the local Walmarts and find out if they are doing the same thing. We have small agencies with limited training budgets that could use some help.

    It saddens me that there is unsold ammo in the first place.

    Could be because once WM jumped on the anti-2nd bandwagon most folks went elsewhere for ammo even though dropping in the local one to pickup an extra box or two is sometimes convenient.

    I mean, at the very minimum it's going to a good cause. Not like the crap Dicks pulled with their AR15 inventory.

    Yeah, screw WM. Glad cops are getting ammo, but screw WM.

    That describes me. I can't bring myself to buy ammo from them anymore. I still wander by the ammo case and see what's still there and it's quite a lot. Less 9mm than usual but plenty of .45, 5.56 and .40 sitting there in bulk. Seeing their near-full shelves lets me know I'm not the only one who feels that way.

    While I agree with ammo going to agencies with poor budgets, it's a virtue signal in itself implying that only law enforcement is able to responsibly possess the kinds of ammo they have deemed evil.

    Here’s a thought...

    Instead of just refusing to buy ammo from WalMart, perhaps you all should just not buy any of their shit, period?

    WalMart sucks. From their poisonous Indian and Chinese medications to their crap food, to just about everything they sell and their entire way of doing business in general.

    Do what you want, but not buying the ammo that they are going to stop selling isn’t really making a stand or a point, when you co tinge to give them your money...

    Or they could do one more price drop to get it down to what it can be bought on line for.
