    My neighbor was going hunting and could not find 30-06 ammo during ammo scarcity. He asked if I had any, I brought out an ammo can just full of 30-06 and he asked me where I got it and told him I stocked up before the shortage and when he tried to pay me for it I said no because they would watch my place when I had to travel for work. He showed up a few days later with a couple of boxes 556 and 9mm left over from firearms training. Now that's a good neighbor.

    • @FitnFire
      @FitnFire  Před 5 měsíci +3

      Of course you can find cheaper ammo online. However, for someone that is in need of ammo immediately, this is a segment of what is available in my area.
      Prime example, the first time gun owner may want to understand what ammunition will cost (good or bad) before selecting a certain type of pistol so they have some ammo when they walk out of the store.

    • @Blueknight1960
      @Blueknight1960 Před 5 měsíci +4

      @@FitnFire I agree but, for a 1st time buyer he/she should do a little research before buying a gun and see what is available locally. Then if the ammo for the gun they want is in stock, buy a couple boxes then order more online. I've been wanting a 50 bmg, so I did a little research found the one I wanted and before I even ordered the gun, I started buying ammo for it. The main reason for that is because there was only 1 place where I live that even sold it and yes I almost cleaned them out of it. They had 11 boxes of it and I left 3 of them on the self. My gun will be here in mid February and I already have 210 rounds for it.

      Call me a novice but what are the best brands for 5.56 and 3.08? I’m new to the game but I will definitely be going to the range sometime soon. Norma and federal seem to have the best prices for 5.56 on PSA. Also, does it matter what ammo I buy for range/self defense? On PSA they’ll be categorized for one or the other. I’d love your take.

      Yeah, with the closing of the last American lead producer by Comrade Obama, and our govt and corporations filled with globalists who are prioritizing ammo, powder and primer sales to other countries over Americans, it's looking really bad. If the Dems steal the next election and get all three branches, then it will go completely insane as they will stock the Supreme Court, implement an Australian type gun ban after their phony court rules it will be "legal," and then Biden declares an insurrection like Lincoln did and sends in the military filled with illegals and woke soldiers to go after anyone opposed to their illegal communist revolution.
