    I have enough 22's for now but think this is a very fine gesture on the part ot these gentlemen. I hope it ends up with someone who really needs it. If not maybe they will pay it forward.

    ammo available website

    It is starting to come down a little. There are .223 on gun brokers buy it now for .75 to .80 per round still high but better than a couple of weeks ago. Not any good bargins for 22LR unless you stumble in a Walmart with some.

    Geco 9MM Luger Parabellum

    Going thru and old stash of ammo this morning and found a box of Geco 9MM Luger Parabellum. It was a 50 round box but only has 45 left in it. Not sure where I picked this up or why as I don't own a 9MM. I know it is at least 20 years old and still looks fine. Manufactured in Germany. Does anyone...

    WallMart no longer taking orders for Ammo

    I talked to a gentleman who works at the local Walmart ditribution center near here and he says they get ammo almost daily and it is sent to stores which usually sell it all in 1 to 2 days even with the 3 box limit.

    What is the deal with the Manufacturers?

    Very many new buyers who have never owned firearms before buying anything they can find and lots of ammo. Plus all the people who have been here before stocking up. I was in my LGS the day after Sandy Hook (it was packed to the gills). I was checking the price on a Bushmaster and a guy walked up...

    "You're too young to retire..."

    I took a buy-out from my company after 35 years at the age of 54. Worked part time when I wanted and the hours I wanted until I could collect SS. No regrets at all. Had to purchase my health care until age 65which was the worst part, but would still do it again.
