interesting walmart sale

[Len-2A Training]

Although it confuses the hell out of them when you say "both" (I was buying .22LR).


Len, how would they even KNOW you're from MA unless you tell them? Do you have to show some kind of ID in NH to buy ammo?

Yes, you have to keep it real simple for the simpletons that work in places like Wal-Mart. Answers like "both" or "machine gun" cause a melt-down of both working brain-cells in most of their clerks.

Wal-Mart Corporate has directed all stores near the MA border to query ALL people for ID. When I show them my NH Permit it has a MA address on it, that's what befuddled the clerk (an older guy I've bought from before).

When I bought ammo at the Manchester, NH Wal-Mart, no questions and no ID asked for. It was far enough from the border that Corporate allows them to operate under NH rules (only if person looks <21). The cash register still queries the clerk (>21 yo and pistol/rifle), but he doesn't hassle the customer for proof unless he feels the person might be underage.

Look, folks, it's a FEDERAL law that any FFL is required to 21 and over for pistol ammo, and 18 for rifle ammo, REGARDLESS of state law.

Want to know just how some states are?

Vermont, the age to sell ammo to is 16 and up. Yes, a Sixteen year old can legally buy ammo from an non-FFL store that sells ammo.

Now you know exactly WHY.

rindge,nh walmart is a great place for ammo, shotshells right out on the shelf, no questions or interrogations at the register,to bad they stopped selling long guns,it used to be my main source,now i have to go to dicks in leominster where they refused to sell me slugs during deer season because my ltc under state law was still valid for 90 days was 2 days expired

DANGER: There are dead wrong statements in this PDF. I've emailed the NRA to suggest they have GOAL review it for them... no response.
