Wal Mart stopped selling assault rifles in 2015. I bet I can still find one. Others will pick up their slack. Like when the cops make a drug bust. U didn't stop drugs. U made a speedbump. Temporary pause.
I was addressing your first erroneous point of "who cares". That's it.

Guns are good and the more ammunition the better

Kill as many as you can, keep the gun companies delivering dividends to shareholders and get them wars on the go

"After selling through our current inventory commitments, we will discontinue sales of short-barrel rifle ammunition such as the .223 caliber and 5.56 caliber that, while commonly used in some hunting rifles, can also be used in large capacity clips on military-style weapons," Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said in a memo to employees on Tuesday.
large capacity clips ???
And that was sent out by the CEO of $350+ billion company.

They are "asking" people not to open carry?

I doubt that will create a shit-storm of idiots who will test their stance and show up at the local Walmart armed like Rambo.
/sarcasm

They already don't sell handguns. They stopped selling the "scary" rifles a long time ago.
They're still going to sell rifles that are MUCH more powerful than the "scary" rifles.
And they are still going to sell Shotguns.
And they are still going to sell the ammo for those rifles and shotguns.

I doubt this makes a dent in their overall ammo sales.
Nothing but a PR move.

Anyyone that open carries and buy ammo for their modern sporting rifles at Wal Mart is fucking stupid. Everyone knows you buy ammo for that online.

I'm a pretty big 2nd Amendment guy, but people who open carry - especially those who have rifles strapped to their backs in public - are real life trolls just looking for a reaction.

I saw a dude with a rifle walking out of a local (non-chain) coffee house a few months ago. It's stupid, alarming and invites confrontation. People who do that shit have a screw loose.

What are your thoughts on concealed carry?

I'm in favor of it provided that the person completes firearms training.

24 states though...

In responsible hands, ccw's are a good thing.

I'm in favor of background checks and mandatory training and classes, including live-fire demonstration of competency and safety.

I also think some sort of annual test should be necessary for renewing a CCW license - sort of like we do for a driver's license. The current CCW license is for 5 years, but most states allow them to be renewed online over and over.

Huh?

That's how driver's licenses work in FL except it's 10 years. There might be a requirement to do a vision test every so often. I don't remember.

Rifles yes.

I open carry now and then. Depends on the surroundings. You have to be very vigilant w your siuational awareness. Can't have anyone close to you.

I've had nothing but good reactions from ppl. I usually try to dress nice when I do it so I don't look like a tard.

Vision test in Ohio for drivers license is every 4 years.
Apparently that changes state to state.

I also think that as people get older - say 65 and over - that vision test should be every year for driver's license. But that's a different topic.

I'm just saying that if a guy earned his CCW at 22 years old that it shouldn't be an automatic renewal for the rest of their life. What if he was in an accident and is now blind? Still want him carrying? Like Ray Charles in Blues Brothers?

I'm just pointing out that it's illogical. Ie, Is 22LR (long rifle) handgun, short barrel rifle or rifle ammo?
I agree.

But my assumption is the .22 caliber would still be available, while something like the .38 would not be - maybe?

Although I'm sure there is a rifle out there that takes a .38 so I guess those guys are just shit outta luck.

Or they can just order their ammo online like everyone else.
