Yep, does great job. Shoots well also, reloads, hunts, fishes, not scared of bugs or critters! She is what we call a keeper!

After 35 years i am surprised she has kept me !

BTW, during the "shortage" who was the member who graciously posted for sale ammo he scored at Walmart at actual costs to help fellow FSNers? He even had the ever elusive, uber rare .22LR!!! He was around Orlando I think.
Hey I remember that dude he was a good guy
was/is that you??
Fess up!
Lol no it wasn’t me. I think he was in the Kissimmee St. Cloud area

I was in the Wimauma/Sun City Walmart last night and decided to see what they had done with the 90% empty ammo display that I saw two weeks ago.

They filled it up!

With Ammo!

It was completely full, 9mm, 38/357, .22, .25, .380,.40,

White box, defensive stuff, Hunting, shot shells, Blazer aluminum and brass.

There wasn't an empty slot in the whole case!

For shits and giggles, I looked at the case at my local walmart and it was full as well, with the only empty spot due to a sale price special. Still wound up ordering a case of Speer 9MM from PSA.

Clearing warehouses, possibly? Do it before others decide to go that way, too, dropping more on the market and depressing prices?
Hurrah for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a Single Star.

Same here. I most certainly "got the best of that deal" with my wife. 41 yrs for us.

Academy Sports has prices that equal or beat Walmart all the time and if you spend $25.00 minimum a guy in a brown shirt will come by and drop it on your porch.

No driving, no traffic, no zombies staggering around, no room temperature IQ "Associates".

I got some NICE Browning truncated cone FMJ last week for $.17.

Same as Walmart gets for Aluminum case Blazer.

I was in the St Cloud WM on Saturday. TONS of ammo and about 3 dozen "hunting type" long guns on display. Joe

I stopped by Tarpon Springs Walmart this weekend and was surprised to find the shelves full.... Sounds like they are smarter than Dick's Sporting Goods and are selling through whatever they had warehoused and/or under contract to accept from suppliers.
