Walmart in cahoots with NY mayor Bloomberg now. I suggest you support your local gun merchant instead.

Well, I'm concerned about abuses, but is it any different than going to the gas station with surveillance videos, inside and out.  We are inundated these days with video camera's of our actions, from the grocery store, banks, gas stations, box stores, and what all else.  A person legally entitiled to purchase a gun goes through the NICS anyway, so why be concerned about videos during the sale.  The same effect occurs daily.  Yes, I know it can be used to identify arms owners and abused.  But so can the paperwork that needs completed before taking possession.  I do not agree with the NICS anyway, but as firearms sellers must do it, the paperwork still identifies those that have bought arms.

I agree with deltecs, the NCIS paperwork already has you identified. Use a credit card or check to buy the weapon? Again "on paper"

I know what you're worried about, but Walmart is a private company, they can film whatever they want.  Like mentioned, here's another free advertisement for your local gun shop.

  With all the money and effort you would think they would have come up with something better. How many violent offender prisons could they have built and staffed by now. If someone committs a violent act with a firearm then they are locked up with a mandatory sentence and DO NOT GET OUT!! until the sentence is completed. I guarantee you that thugs think about that too. When you have to refill the printer to complete the printing of a rap sheet then the problem is not with guns, it is with letting them out.
