It is MANAGER policy. There are about 4 stores in thr ftw area that will sell after hours. Most just don't want to hassle with it.
Same "Manager" policy in three states. Sure. "rlol"
Ok Einstiene ....If its not manager (or regional) policy then explain why I can go to 5 different stores in ft worth area and buy anytime and several other stores the manager refuses.....
You just have to find the right store and talk to the manager...not an employee.
OK people, no name calling. :nono:
And, if you ARE going to call someone by the name of a genius, you should at least spell it right!

Is that when they close down the register? I remember I have gone to Walmart very late at night (after work) to get ammo, and the area was deserted and locked up. I did manage to track someone down who had the key, and they did open the case for me but said that they would have to walk the ammo with me to the front since the register was already closed. I don't remember if this was at 9pm or 10pm. Did get a shocked 'You mean people can just come in and buy all that ammo this late at night?!?' comment from the lady behind me in line (I was only buying a 50 round box of 9mm WWB).
No, this is strictly an ammo policy that has been in effect for at least the last year. During the first shortage you could buy 6 boxes at 11:59pm and 6 more at 12:01am. Can't do that anymore.

The few Wal-Marts that I frequent to look for ammo, DO have it posted on their ammo case. It says some thing along the lines of "Ammunition will only be sold from 8am to 6pm." I don't believe those are the exact hours it says, but it is something to that effect.
Everyone I've been to the cutoff is 10:00pm.

Like I said, long story short, it was two employees AND the manager I was having this discussion with. They all three insisted it was law, even when I pulled out my phone and offered to look it up for them.

My understanding is that this is a very common thing for certain managers/employees that are anti gun. I was also told one other time (by the same Walmart) that I would need to come back on Monday for a hunting license as all the official offices were closed.
No one said the employees you were dealing with are very bright, just that it is Walmart policy which in fact it is.
