Wal-Mart Drops Gun Sales in Some Stores
By MARCUS KABEL, AP Business Writer
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. has decided to stop selling guns in about a third
of its U.S. stores in what it calls a marketing decision based on lack
of demand in some places, a company spokeswoman said Friday.

The world's largest retailer decided last month to remove firearms
from about 1,000 stores in favor of stocking other sporting goods, in
line with a "Store of the Community" strategy for boosting sales by
paying closer attention to local differences in demand.
