Ammo Day

I got:


Well, the 2 boxes of ammo in the bottom center of the photo. The other stuff is just stuff that happened to arrive lately from Midway.

It's one box of cheap .40 and one of .45. $60. This time last year it would be slightly better quality ammo for $40. This is ridiculous.

The gossip, for what its worth, at my local gunstore is: You still can't get ammo. He's lucky to have this, and its priced accordingly. SIG P238s are now legal in MD, as is the SIG 556 pistol (amazingly! apparently MD is much better on approvals than MA is, JayG). He's sold 30 238s in a month. And he doesn't expect more for a while, as SIG is back ordered on those 8 months. You can't get a 686 from S&W right now, and the gun store guy blames Smith, that they are working too hard on recalls and not manufacturing anything right now.

Anyhoo...


What did you get for Buy Ammo Day ?

    I picked up a couple of boxes of .308 match from, naturally, Cheaper Than Dirt!

    On Friday I got a case (500 rounds) of Winchester 9mm at a Wal-Mart in Urbana, IL. They had more than a dozen boxes of 50 on the shelf, and two more cases in addition to the one I snapped up. They have raised the price slightly, though.

I reserve the right to delete patently offensive comments. Or, really, any comment I feel like. Or I might leave a really juicy comment up for private ridicule. Also spammers.

You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
