That is a legal requirement just as it is for alcohol or tabbaco products. I have never been asked for ID at Walmart, but then I am wayyyyy past 21, but when they ring up the sale their screen show "is customer 21 or older?"

I just hit my 30's. For all I know, the guy behind the counter didn't know what was what, like typical wal-mart employees. I was waiting at the counter for 5 mins before I flagged someone down. They had to get a "manager" who looked younger than me, so who knows. I might give it another shot.

I've never had either of them do that at my local Wal-Mart? I wonder if this is a local store policy?
Same here, never been asked my ID at Wal-Mart.

It might just be the Wylie wal-mart, or maybe I just looked like a troublemaker. I'll give it another shot at another wal-mart as i'd rather be shooting WWB than Blazer anyway.

I don't mind paying 4.86 for blazer at acadmey, as it's not Wal-Mart, and they don't write my name in their "ammo book" and bug me for ID like Wal-Mart does.
