new update on Walmart

[jtmaze]

Just did a walk through at walmart to pick up some ammo and low and behold what did they have in the case but a Sig Assault rifle priced at $897 but no model number on tag. have bad pics on phone when get charged will post. Could this be a preview to Walmart starting to carry Sig products.

That would be a SIG-W model made in China...

[jtmaze]

it was in a locked case about 2 feet over my head the Sig wrap around the grip caught my eye.

Hey now I couldn't let that one slide by now could I.

[jtmaze]

With the light reflecting you can't tell much but it looked like an ar with a different forearm.

Well now, just maybe another reason to take that required Wally World Walk.

Why don't the stores in Nashville sell guns?

So a refresher? Or needed on renewal of HCP? Have to stay up on all your skills you know... LOL

Why don't the stores in Nashville sell guns?

Heard all kinds of weird explanations, but obviously has something to do with their perceived demographics. The two in West Knoxville are the only two in our area that don't, and that side of town is THE shopping area. It's like they don't sell them in the urban "upscale" areas. But they sell ammo, which of course gets sold out. Some spreadsheet reasoning mystery.

So I guess what your saying is that only the WW's that are in the sticks sell firearms. lol

Well, not exactly the "sticks" but sorta. We have three other Wallys, all in city limits that sell them, but they are in the less high dollar parts of town. And surrounding towns, Oak Ridge, Clinton, Lenoir City, Maryville all sell them.

Chattanooga same way, the one in Brainerd and the one on Gunbarrel next to Hamilton Place Mall (THE 'Nooga shopping mecca) don't.

Those Chinese Sigs are great. The paint job is a little gnarly, but they shoot good.

The one in hermitage had guns last time I was in there

[Sidinman]

Just joking about the sticks, I think all the WW's I've seen are all in the city limits of what ever town they are in. But I know what you mean, I think it has been discussed before on here.

Thats because they use lead based paint... you know so when SHTF you can scrape it off , smelt it and reload one more round for you or a loved one...

Probably not even real lead. They got that mystery metal in most of their stuff. I think it's a combination of zinc and rice.

The Hermitage Wally World sells a Sig Model 400 Hunter edition with a 20" barrell, and a Bushmaster with 16" barrell. They also have a Sig 522 for $497, I think.

I've been in Hazard, Ky for work the past couple days. I saw they also carried the Sig M400 Hunter for $897. Comes with Magpul MOE handgaurd, no sights and no rail on gas block. Has 20" barrel with no flash suppressor. Has A2 stock.

They also had an M&P-22, and a Remington R-15

A guy I work with wife is a manager at the wm in Milan and they carry more guns than the bigger stores in jackson because of demographics. She says that the Milan store is one of the top gun selling stores in the area. This purely has to do with demographics.

Walmart in Mt Juliet just started selling long guns. I don't recall seeing any ARs.
