America’s largest retailers are rethinking their gun policies following a spate of mass shootings this summer in states including California, Texas and Ohio.
With uncertainty about whether Congress will do anything this fall in response to the massacres, the private sector has started taking action to address gun violence.
Walmart, whose El Paso, Texas, location was the site of a mass shooting in August, said this week it was halting the sale of handguns and certain ammunition while urging its millions of customers not to openly carry firearms in its stores. Walgreens and CVS quickly followed suit, asking its customers to leave their guns at home.
But not all major retailers have revamped their policies.
Below is a description of gun policies for the 30 largest U.S. retailers based on overall sales, as measured by the National Retail Federation.
