A couple of people on these forums have mentioned that you can special order firearms from Walmarts that no longer sell them in-store. I was told you can ask them for the special order catalog and they will give it to you from behind the counter, you look through and find what you want, give them the order number and in the matter of a week or two, you get a call that your gun is in and ready for pick up.
Well... I just talked to sporting goods "experts" at 5 local Walmarts and by the look they gave me you would have thought I just asked them the square root of maple syrup. No one had a clue about this mystery catalog. Some locations said it doesn't even make sense that a catalog would exist because firearms aren't allowed on the premises so even if they were able to order a firearm it couldn't be delivered to that store.
So, I guess I'm out of luck. But I was just wondering if my area (MI, just north of Detroit) is the only area that doesn't do the catalog or if this is fairly common.
I assume this isn't possible, but could I call up a store that someone knows has the catalog and order it over the phone to be delivered directly to me?
On a side note: Does anyone know if this special order catalog has the Pardner Protector in it? It's the gun I'm looking at getting right now and I can't find it for under $220 in my area. I see posts on here all the time where people are getting it for $140 out the door.
