The Mandela Effect

I used to buy ammo at a Maine Walmart sometime around the early 2000s, and then I went in there one day maybe around 2005 and the guy said we don't sell ammo anymore – still selling guns, but no ammo.

Now, the oddity I'm noticing here is that the timeline makes sense for the Maine location, but not Kansas (apparently). If the manager of the Kansas store was at the Maine store instead and said what he did about not selling ammo for fifteen years, then that would line up fairly accurately with what I remember.

2024 minus "a couple years ago" minus fifteen puts it at 2007, so that timeline sounds about right for my store – right timeline wrong store.

The Google results didn't make a whole lot of sense either from what I remember. It says they stopped selling handgun ammo in 2019 and I could swear it was way before that. I was mostly buying ammo from 2002 - 2007 when I was a member of a shooting range and then only on rare occasions after that.

I remember the guy just saying that "We don't sell ammo anymore.", but nothing about any specific kind of ammo, just "ammo".

I know, much of this doesn't make a whole lot of sense, and Google just seems to have made more a mess of things.
