(WMT) locations.<\/p>\n<p>Wal-Mart, the world\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s largest retailer, said yesterday that it would continue to sell guns, including rifles like the one used at Newtown, where 26 people, most of them children, were killed on Dec. 14. By contrast, Dick\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Sporting Goods Inc. (DKS) suspended sales of similar guns at its more than 500 stores.<br \/>\nSearches of five kinds of semi-automatic rifles on Wal- Mart\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s website showed them to be out of stock at stores in five states, including Pennsylvania, Kansas and Alabama. Wal-Mart doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t sell guns online, instead asking customers to input a zip code to see if their local store carries a specific weapon.<br \/>\n\u00e2\u20ac\u0153We remain dedicated to the safe and responsible sale of firearms in areas of the country where they are sold,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d David Tovar, a spokesman for Wal-Mart, said yesterday. He didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t immediately respond to a request for comment on this story.<br \/>\nWal-Mart has about 10 modern sporting rifles, the gun industry\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s term for firearms that look like an M-16 military rifle, listed on its website. The retailer removed a description and picture of the Bushmaster AR-15, which was the model used in Newtown, after the shootings.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/2012-12-19\/guns-out-of-stock-at-wal-mart-as-magazine-prices-surge-on.html\">&#8230;read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;of Semi-Automatic Rifles We saw this happen years ago the last time they banned weapons.
