No Walmart Wyoming sales of firearms to Colorado residents?
I happened to be at the Walmart in Cheyenne this weekend, where I saw a rifle I wanted to purchase.
As soon as I mentioned to the clerks I was from Colorado I was told I could not purchase any firearms there. One of the workers behind the counter said it was a recent policy change. The other worker hadn't heard about it so he tried entering my purchase into their system. The purchase was denied as soon as they entered I was from Colorado, before even getting to the screen where they enter what the firearm is. In other words it isn't related to magazine capacity, it is just a blanket prohibition on selling longarms to Coloradoans.
Anyone else heard anything about this or experienced this for themselves? Am I missing something in my understanding of these new laws that just passed? As far as I knew I thought I could still purchase longarms out-of-state.

The way I see it is that Walmart didn't want to leave it up to their employees to determine if the firearm is legal in their state so to minimize the risk of accidentally selling an illegal gun to CO, they'd rather not sell any.

Well I guess that cancels my plans this afternoon to pick up the $850 AR that I saw on the Walmart shelf yesterday.
