3+ years for me in Columbus. I'm pretty sure they've had them long enough to count as 'forever'.Both Columbus locations have had long guns for the 1.5 years I've lived here. Scary black ones including Colt, Windham, and DPMS. Scottsburg had a DPMS in .308 flavor the other week when I was down there. I do not ever recall seeing any when I lived in the Peoples Republic of Illinois but five minutes over the border into Wisconsin they are stocked.
The Wal-Mart here in Shelbyville has been selling guns for the last year or two!
I don't think the Lebanon Wal-mart will ever get them back. They stopped selling them years ago after a couple of robo-trippers broke in and stole some guns in an attempt to go break someone out of a juvenile corrections facility. Luckily they carjacked a guy with On-Star.
Just wait till the next school shooting and they'll drop them again...
