Walmart has instituted a new corporate policy that bars its stores from selling semi-automatic AR-15-style rifles and semi-automatic shotguns that have a magazine capacity of seven shots or more. The chain denies politics played a role in the decision. Seems political to me.

Plenty of gun stores that will be very glad that big box competition has gone away.

Sounds like a huge boon to Mom and Pop gun shops around the country.

Another reason why you shouldn't shop at Walmart. The line to kiss the meatiest part of my butt begins with them.

This is not political? Walmart stops selling AR-15 style rifles and home defense shotguns...

It is probably not "political" on their part. I am sure it was based on a careful cost-benefit analysis. I am equally sure anti-gun groups and potential lawsuits and protests (all three political actions) factored into the "cost" part.

I think they made the wrong decision, but I don't think they were trying to take a political stand. Instead, they were trying to get OUT of being in a political fight.

Their rifles are garbage anyway. Basic DPMS rifle/carbine.
