There's definitely something going on. They are getting rid of a lot of the "tactical" sort of things...all the MFT and Blackhawk stuff, red dot sights, even a lot of the 556 ammo. I wouldn't get into the in foil hat arena on it just yet....in all reality I'm sure walmart is not the first place you stop by to buy a stock for your AR.
It's not just all the tactical type stuff in some stores either. A guy was telling me he bought 4 bolt guns that were marked down almost 50% off. A ruger american .308 for under $200 and 3 savages that were just over $200. They also had some stuff like hunting scopes marked down 50% too. Seems like they are thinning the herd on some of that stuff....I'm guessing it doesn't sell to well to begin with anyways. I did grab a trs25 with mount for $54 while I was there....don't know why I bought that but hey the price was right.
