No they are discussing if 12.00 a box for Tula 54r is a good price at Walmart and if the 6.00 box of x39 is good stuff.

Would be neat to see some in my local walmart. They have never had 7.62x54. Haven't seen any 22 for more than a year there either. Haven't had aby issues shooting it yet. Been shooting it some in 7.62x39, 223, and 9mm every now and then.
Let me make a short, open, blanket comment. There are no good guns. There are no bad guns. Any gun in the hands of a bad man is a bad thing. Any gun in the hands of a descent person is no threat to anyone--- except bad people. -- Charleton Heston

Guns are not good, they are not evil. Save those descriptions for the people holding the firearm. -- Unknown

1939 Tula (laminate stock)
And many other firearms :D

Went into my local WallyWorld and the guy had no idea what Tula 54R was.

Oops.

Well, my Walmart doesn't carry it, BUT, the one about 17 miles away towards work does. :biggrin:

No 54r at our local Wally World but they recently started stocking Suprema 00 Buckshot 2 3/4" 9 pellets. $11.97 for a 25
round box. Box says made in Spain for Tula USA. Opened a box and it was pretty decent looking ammo. Think I'll try a box
and see what they are like.

Wallyworld... The place of my bi-weekly revenue source. I'm not seeing any 54r at my store yet. The biggest problem is the manual order option is only available for Shotgun shells. Rifle & handgun ammo orders are still blocked, and that applies to special orders too. We get whatever is sent & never know what is coming.

........which makes getting .22lr at Wally World a crapshoot. Fortunately for me, I happen to be in a position to see the dice land first. :wink: I even see it before Rongo. I am still limited to the same amount as any customer, (3 boxes), and I can't set some aside, they will fire for that. I can however schedule my break or lunch whenever I like, and/or hope the overnight associate who i ssupposed to stock it doen't get to it. Happens quite often. :roll: We had some Rem. .22 Shorts stay in the case for a week or two recently, hopefully things are looking up.

I can get to see it before it gets too either one of you, when it comes off one trailer and gets loaded for distribution, and find which store it ships to. :thumbsup: :chuckles:
