I stopped at the WalMart at the big Southpark Plaza (Colonial Heights, VA) off I-95 on Monday night during my drive back to NC after the holidays. Although they has NO handgun ammo, they DO have a mess of Federal Premium "Vital-Shok" 3" Magnum 12ga shotgun shells in 00 buck for a good price. I got two boxes, and left about 2 dozen more on the shelf. If anyone is looking for a GREAT home-defense 12ga cartridge, this is one of the best, and at a good price...
I also found (at another store in the same plaza) 230gr .45acp Federal Hydra-Shok "Law Enforcement" ammo in 50-round boxes for WELL under $40/box. (I recently paid that much for a 20-round box here in NC...) I'm not gonna tell the name of the store--this will be a "secret tip" for folks in the area who know the stores down there. I bought one box and plan on going back for more in a week or so when I get paid again. I would have bought 3 or 4 boxes, but I pretty much blew my budget on other people's Christmas, and the Serpa gear I bought for myself at Quantico Tactical Supply earlier in the day...
This same store also has Remington Gold Sabre, Cor-Bon, DPX, and Speer Gold Dot in .45acp--all in plentiful supply, and ALL at the lowest prices I've seen in this area in YEARS. In fact, their overall ammo selection (handgun {LOTS in ALL the popular calibers but not much in .380 auto}, rifle, shotgun) was simply astounding. If you live in the area, you probably know which store I'm talking about. And BTW, this store was VERY OC-friendly, and I has a a nice chat with a couple of salesmen about my Para, and 1911's in general.
They also had a BEAUTIFUL Dan Wesson 1911 in stainless. It had a bobbed butt, rosewood grips and was chambered in 10mm. The price was too rich for me, but it wasn't unreasonably priced at all. And they had a Para Ordnance .45 LDA PDA (the first one I've seen in a store in over a year!) that I was tempted to have them transfer to my dealer in NC, but I've got Grad School to pay for this semester...:banghead:
Get 'em while you can folks. Merry belated Christmas... :celebrate
