I probably missed the train... But where can I find some 9mm ammo online. I have checked a few places that I had bookmarked. Even some brands I never heard of.. are all gone.

depends on whether you need it NOW or later. If you need it now, then you have to buy it from one of the big name companies. all the small websites are running behind on shipping anything for 1-4 weeks, even if its showing in stock. The big websites have a bit more of a modular operation and were able to ramp up shipping smoother, they're still shipping on time if they have it. And they'll tell you when they think they'll have it back in stock.

If you're content with it later, then you have even more options from lots of different small companies.

I picked up some of this stuff cheap, $11 a box for Aguila 9mm 124gr FMJ (read good enough stuff about em), but it won't ship for another 4 weeks.

Gary if you werent so far out in the sticks I would say come over we will make you a few thousand rounds of 9mm. I have about 4k rounds of brass and about 1500 bullets 124 gr FMJ would only take a few hours to run those off.

That would be awesome. Why do you have to live so far?

I have. Just once.
Shot 124 gr 9mm.
No flaws other than found it to be the dirtiest ammo I have ever shot. Same for friend that was with me who was a trainer at academy.
Not sure if we had a bad batch or that is the norm but have not bought it as result of that day at the range.
Our hands were literally black when we were done.

I use Winchester quite a bit and like it for range ammo.
If you want it quicker than a month out, check SGammo daily. Stuff on there all the time and cheaper than Cabela's.
Very fast shipping.

I will have to check that.. I don't see them on there now.

They have the 1000 rounds Federal JHP for almost, just a bit higher than the Winchester at cabelas. I do not want to just shoot JHP, but for the same price, why not?

Although I had previously "heard" of 3gun, I had never watched a video before today. I'm hooked. I want to do it. RIGHT NOW. I think I found my new hobby when I return to the states next year. That should make the wife REALLLLY happy :r

There's a match up in my neck of the woods end of the month, I'll try to get up there and see what its like. before I leave...
