I looked at Wal-Mart's online special order selection and it has indeed decreased significantly. There weren't any more Browning o/u's on it and it seemed like there were a lot fewer rifles too.

I don't buy a lot from Wal-Mart as it is, but I don't really blame them for not carrying firearms anymore if they weren't making money on it. Kind of like how we do not blame Target for not selling firearms or ammunition. Target just made the decision not to do so before it opened its doors.

Lucky for us that Cabelas and Outdoor World are opening more and more locations. You can still buy firearms at those stores and the Cabelas I visited in PA had one heck of a selection. The Outdoor World by me in MD doesn't have a bad selection either.

Galyans used to have a pretty good selection too, but they were bought out by Dicks Sporting Goods and the selection has gone to crap.

Now, if Wal-Mart decided to take guns off of its shelves because it got pressure from some anti group to do so, then I would completely boycott it.

Other than sporting goods for fishing and hunting and auto maintenance stuff, there isn't much that I buy at Wal-Mart.
