Beautiful sight today (updated)
My local wal-mart seems to know everyone around here likes to go shooting on the 4th. So they made sure they had plenty of just about every popular caliber imaginable.

C'mon man, this has to be a trick. Was this taken in 1982? Next time you make a post like this you need to hold up a copy of the morning paper's front page in it
All kidding aside, looks good, thanks for sharing!

That doesn't look like the Walmarts around here. Their shelves are bare.
I think this is a trick.

Nope wasnt a trick, although i thought it was when i seen it. I actually walked back to the other side of the store and walked back just to make sure my eyes wasnt seeing things. Usually there is some ammo, but not as much as this morning.
My ole lady seen this pic amd asked how much I bought. I told her that i wasnt buying any at all. I wanted to give other families the opportunity to get a little ammo and be able to enjoy some shooting also.
My ole lady insists that i'm too nice of a person sometimes, lol

I've visited 2 of my local WM's and the shelves were bare.
Employee told me he hasn't seen 22lr in a long time.
Guess you were lucky finding this hoard.

Wouldn't have made it to the shelves here. It mostly gets sold as the boxes are opened. Sporting goods can then be shut down till the next truck gets in.

Yes. I didn't know they still make those old 550 ammo.
The new one being sold at Walmart is 525 and look like this now.

That's what I was thinking.
More like a green hand basket and still have room for two gallons of red capped milk and a box of corn dogs!

Just to show the world all of this isnt from the 1980's, LMAO. I figured I'd go in yesterday and buy the 3 box limit of some CCi Mini Mags at the wonderful price of $6.77 a box.
Receipt and all.......Happy Birthday America!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course today is the 5th. I did say this was from yesterday, which would be the 4th, lol.
Just check the date on the receipt just to the left of the bottom box.

I picked up a box of .45ACP at my local WM today and turned down some Tula 9mm and .40 cal. I commented to the department manager that it was nice to see four AR's on the shelf. She told me they haven't sold one in three weeks and they are sending her so many that she doesn't have room on the shelf in the security cage and has them stacked on the floor.
