Are you required to show I.D. to buy shotgun shells. I finally found 3 boxes of 12 gauge 7 and 1/2 shot at Walmart. It is what I use for turkeys and I couldn't find any all fall. Anyway when I checked out the clerk asked for my I.D. I was so surprised I just handed mine to her. Is this normal or just something they pulled out of their behind?

They are barnyard turkeys. We shoot all we want from the front door, nothing but avian rats. I have harvested many with a 410 and 6 shot.

Merriams are barnyard turkeys. There have been studies done and the belief now is that the merriams are actually descended from populations of semi-domesticated birds kept by pre Columbian native americans. If memory serves this idea is based upon DNA and presumed an origin in Central Mexico that was similar to but distinct from the Gouldsboro. The article I'm trying to recall speculated that it might have been a now extinct sixth subspecies they originated from.

If memory is correct Wamart stated that policy after Sandy Hook. That's also when they and Dicks started pulling guns from shelves

Who buys ammo @ Wal Mart? Go to a real gun store. Like a mom and pop gun store.

Gun store in town can't get ammo. I buy it where I find it.

When it comes to certain specialty food items, I have found Wal Mart to be the higher cost option. Your mileage may vary.

6+ yrs, ago Walmart closest to me . Clerk wanted ID. & NYS pistol permit to sell me 9mm ammo . I told him sorry pal , but I have a marlin camp rifle to use it in. Besides just about all so called handgun ammo can be shot from a Long gun today. Never did show proof, walked out with 2 X 50rd boxes . Today that store has no long guns or ammo on shelves . Rant Over...... Tut

I do when they have it. Much cheaper than anywhere else. Today I bought some from a mom and pop store though, they had the most ammo I've seen in one place in a LONG time.

They don't ask for ID here when buying ammo.

I bought an antique cleaver online and we have to have someone over 18 sign for it with FedEx when it arrives.

If they keep control, in the future, the liberals will probably make us show ID to buy a 5 gallon bucket or dry cleaning bag. They want complete control of our lives.
