Das a goot wanalas I have no friends so its a moot point.
You bought all that ammo and chinese Ak’s with shoe money didn’t you?I’m the first Yes, I’m sorry, the people that are complaining about the prices being so high are no different than the rioters or protestors that don’t get their way. I worked hard and when times are good I sell a lot. People on both sides NEED to realize you responsible for your own situation.
Instead of buying drinks at the store I bring my own. I drive a car that been wrecked so it still serves the purpose. I choose to smoke but I buy generic. I try to buy everything generic. I wear clothes and shoes until they are worn out.
Because of the ways I save money I’ve sold over 8k rds of ammo in the last 2 months. I still have all I need to carry me for a while. I haven’t even started 22 yet. I have Appx 15k set aside for that when I think the time is right.
Don’t sell it all, it may come in handy someday...soon!I have a bunch of steel core 5.56 I can’t shoot at indoor ranges and it’s not good for steel. I sold some just to turn it into 10 times the quantity of Precision loading components
I think the mistake here is that he knew you had ammo. Just sayin'...My 5.56 stash is good
My 9 mm stash is low ( 800 rounds) but I don't shoot much 9mm.
A guy from work called me last week asked if I would sell him a couple of boxes of 9 mm because he didn't want to pay 30.00 for 50 rounds.
My answer was no, he said I thought we were friends,
I told he had mixed up the definition of friends with the definition of aquaintances.
He's no longer speaking to me.
No big loss
He didn't know it for a fact just went on a fishing expedition and came home empty handed.I think the mistake here is that he knew you had ammo. Just sayin'...
Ole Pard, you have been overtly generous here. This is my promise to YOU....I got ammo, you got ammo. Just lemme know.
Unless someone has bills that are going unpaid, I’m not sure how selling ammo really makes sense in the current climate, which is honestly unprecedented in our lifetimes to my way of thinking.I guess if it gets so bad that I can sell aluminum 9mm for $1/round I'm possibly going to. Problem is, it gets that bad is it a good idea to sell?
As some of you know, I was at the Charleston show all weekend, so I saw first hand the people buying up ammo like it was Doritos at a marijuana festival. I talked to a lot of people as we sold basically all the ammo we had, Which wasn't a whole lot. It was sort of interesting the different stories/reasons that they shared about why they were buying. No reasons were solicited, but the most common reason was to blame their purchasing on everyone else. I heard all weekend "If everyone wasn't hording ammo, there would be plenty for all of us", which is true, but now they have become part of the problem. Some didn't care one bit about cost, they just wanted ammo. One gentleman bought his first gun from us, a Glock 9mm. I forget which model but was what his instructor recommended. He came up, said do you have this model, bought it and said he would like to buy all the 9mm ammo we had, never once questioned the price. Like some others, he is convinced there is going to be some sort of civil unrest or even a civil war and he wants to be prepared. Most of the dealers were selling 9mm for $30-35 a box and .223/556 was going for around $700 per 1k and 762x39 in steel case was going for around $450 per k. There was one dealer who had at least a pickup truck load of these 3 best sellers and his prices were almost double and he was sitting back waiting on everyone to run out so he could hit a grand slam. Glad to say, most of his inventory was still there around 30 minutes before closing. I know the majority of the dealers that were there and I'm satisfied that none that I know was gouging, they were just making their normal markup based on what they are having to pay. I was glad to see that there was available ammo there even at closing and maybe this is a sign that it might not be quite as bad as some see the future. Its going to be more expensive for a good while I'm satisfied, but as the availability gets better, I think the price will come down. From what I understand this is the first show since the pandamnit that had ammo left in the building when the show was over.This^^^^^^^ Yesterday in Charleston at the gun show 9mm was selling for $35-40 a box. Today it will be $50+. They are hauling it out. Buying cases at $40 a box.
Soon rifle ammo will be back at $1.00 a round for fighting calibers.
I'm with @Jeppo on this!
There IS no extra.I see a lot of ammo for sale recently. With all thats going on politically, and Covid wise, the prices are high.
If you had extra would you sell?
(Pick up to 3 choices)
A guy from work called me last week asked if I would sell him a couple of boxes of 9 mm because he didn't want to pay 30.00 for 50 rounds.
My answer was no
Told me I should sell it to him at what price I paid, not "what they're selling for now" because "you have enough".
That is one of the most ignorant comments I've heard said.
