I heard they are having afire sale because they are stopping fire arm sales.. I don't know if it is true... my other walmart store had ammos, but they don't have firearms.

No they are selling off the AR's I was talking to the manager while I was checking out and he said they have orders for tons of rifles, walmart is getting out of the AR business. He told me they clearance a whole lot of stuff in aug because the next years stuff is starting to come in. Now it could just be hogwash from one manager, but they had prob 40 other rifles/ shotguns that were normal price.

You guys don't know how good you have it. Guns are always more expensive in the sunshine state. I paid over 400 out the door for my axis heavy barrel

Ill tell you something else about the (laws) in the sunshine state as they pertain to (buying) guns.
As a Florida resident, you are not permitted to purchase firearms in another state other than an adjoining state.
Not all gun shop owners are aware of the law but those that are in other states wont sell you a gun.
Grices gun shop in Clearfield PA is the largest volume gun dealer in the state. Over many years ive bought lots
of guns there. But since moving to Florida they will no longer sell me a gun.

I thought it was Federal law that a guy could buy long guns in an adjoining state, but can only buy handguns from instate. I worked the gun counter at the Hixson, TN Academy for a while, and that is the rule we went by.

I was informed when attempting to buy a rifle at the Grice gun shop that it was a Florida law.
Im not aware of what handgun laws are. I have bought rifles from other shops and the background
check didnt raise any flags over the residency issue. So those that dont know or dont choose to know will sell you a gun.

I'm a bit miffed that I can't find any of these super deals, and it's not like I don't have an Axis action sitting on my kitchen counter as we speak. I don't need another Axis, but at those prices it just seems stupid not to get another one!

Now, I should probably go clean off my kitchen counter.

at my local Walmart they had axis for $289.00 but when I asked about the $199.00 axis they found one in the back { counterman hoped to buy it when he got paid } ASK they might have one

@JWW123, things like this infuriate me. "Found" it? My local WalMart gun counter guys had a pretty good scheme going on 22's. Same thing, they would stash bricks in the back, and then sell them to friends. The 22's in question would then be sold at local gun shops for a tidy profit. The gun counter is now under new management. I asked where the old guard went and I was told the above story "off the record". What a shame.

I stopped and checked today. The sporting goods manager told me that sales were dependent on what needed to move at a particular store. She said that the Axis is a good seller and they didn't need to put them on clearance. They just finished blowing out all their AR rifles, however.

I finally found a Walmart that is still in the business of selling guns—that was the first challenge—and the only Axis was a .223 for $289. The counter clerk seemed a bit lost about guns in general, so I doubt asking about clearance Axises would have been too successful. Oh well, you can't win them all (though upSLIDEdown seems to have excellent luck).

I did make an interesting, Axis-related find at a gun store nearby, but more about that later.

WM here has a versa max for like 437 originally 800 something. Last is on hold pending background check. They guy on hold thought he was getting it at 600 something. Gonna be like x-mas when/if it comes back proceed now at another $200 off!

All I know is there are some buys out there on this stuff!
