LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – Walmart will stop selling the AR-15 rifle and other semi-automatic weapons at its stores because fewer people are buying them, a spokesman said Wednesday.

The AR-15 rifles and other modern sporting rifles were being sold at less than a third of the company's 4,600 U.S. stores. Company spokesman Kory Lundberg said Walmart Stores Inc. will remove the remaining inventory as stores transition from summer to fall merchandise, which should take a week or two to complete.
AR-15 sales are down at Walmart. Just like they are everywhere else. Members here remark about cheap AR prices all the time. Well that ain't because they're in really high demand right now. It's because everybody and their dog has a glut of inventory they can't get rid of.

Yeah...pretty far-fetched to believe this is a business decision driven by market factors.
