and all the guns had been removed in the sporting goods area. Felt weird seeing no guns as we passed. Apparently you will have to be 21 in the state to purchase a firearm.

He should check in on FB to let the masses know.

FWIW I don't think Id buy a handgun from Walmart even if they had them.

A good cheap rifle or shotgun, sure.

About 10 years ago I heard Walmart had a good deal on Windham Weaponry AR-15s and would have bought from them, but I found out a local gun dealer had the same price and I'll never screw over a local business for Walmart.

Since you haven't been keeping up with the law changes in your state.

quote:

• Raise the minimum age. The bill would change the minimum age for all gun purchases to 21 from 18 — a provision that would have prohibited the Parkland gunman, Nikolas Cruz, 19, from legally buying the rifle he used in his massacre. This is a divergence from federal law, under which people cannot buy handguns from licensed dealers until they are 21, but can buy shotguns and rifles — often much deadlier than handguns — at 18. (Unlicensed sales, such as at gun shows, have looser restrictions.) Governor Scott and Senator Marco Rubio, a fellow Republican, endorsed the age increase last month.


quote:

• Create a waiting period. Prospective gun buyers would have to wait three days, or until a background check is completed, whichever is longer. There would be some exceptions, including for police officers, members of the military, licensed hunters and licensed concealed carriers.


quote:

• Ban bump stocks. Bump stocks are devices that can be attached to rifles to enable them to fire faster, and they will no longer be legal in Florida if the bill is signed. (You can learn more about them here.) They came to public attention in October, after a gunman in Las Vegas used them to kill 58 people and wound hundreds; with the devices, his semiautomatic weapons were able to fire almost as fast as fully automatic machine guns. After that massacre, the N.R.A. said it supported a national ban on bump stocks, an extremely rare gun control endorsement by the group. But the proposal languished in Congress, and while President Trump told the Justice Department last month to issue new regulations, thus far it has not.


Florida Gun Bill

Walmart could probably just sale ammo, I am not joking, i don't think I know anyone who has ever bought a gun at walmart.

I swear by the effectiveness of those things. Chartreuse dollar spinner. I've caught more bass on those than any other lure. Swap it out for a 6 dollar spinner and won't catch shite

At first I thought you were going to make a comment about the increase in self check out lanes.

The one by my house even has “price check guns” at the entrance to pick up so you can scan and bag as you roam around the store finding stuff to buy. You then scan the register and then pay and leave. It is almost a breeze.

That is illegal and will be shot down when challenged.

The NRA filed suit about 12 seconds after it passed.
