As noted earlier, WM no longer sells firearms in CA. That might change in the future, as it settled a lawsuit by paying the government $14.5 million:
The settlement of the largest of its kind since Lockyear's office created its firearms division in 1999. Wal-Mart agreed to stop sales of firearms in California last year; the settlement calls for the retailer to reform its practices if it resumes the sale of guns....Lockyer said that in agreeing to the settlement, Wal-Mart "cooperated in trying to respond to our demands that they observe our laws so that ex-felons, mentally ill and other prohibited [people] don't get weapons."
