I suppose if you head them off and trade me for a ninja katana, I hear the zombies don't care for those

Good thing I can get a box a month from my department. Might have to start stockpiling it.

I see ammo as an investment. The XM193 that I bought for $180 before the elections is now going for $235.

That is certainly doing a lot better than my IRA.

If the zombies invade your better off with a 12 gage loaded with "slugger" rounds. I have a saiga for the zombies.

Might have to make a date at the range for them to meet.

Where did you get that picture of my workplace?

I never had trouble getting what I "needed"...but then I didn't go to stores in the first place. Local gun shows still had a good supply.

At one point this spring ammo was getting so scarce one dealer (who normally doesn't sell ammo) went in back and came out with a can of surplus GI .45. I bought three boxes just for the novelty...it was mostly WW2 ammo repacked into 50 round boxes in the sixties by Olin-Matheson, with no consistency as to maker or year.

They found some real crap to repackage too...can you imagine loading your .45 or Thompson mags before going out into the Vietnamese jungle (or into a tunnel) and finding Peters ammo from 1917????

Sounds like a little bit of a grab bag of ammo (some of this and some of that).

I'll just say what atlharp would say, no problem when you load your own.

I am all set it in .45 (1000) and 5.56/.223 (2000) and Shotgun Ammo (400) but need to pickup some Match .308 for my new Savage 10FCP rifle.
