Ammunightmare? Yup ...STILL ASLEEP!

Thats because they (super colibris) contain no powder and are not really intended for use in rifles.

Super colibris will clear a rifle. Colibri will not. At least that's been my experience.

Even more dissapointing is that they do this with backorders as well. Seven times now I've gotten an email from them at about 1:10 am telling me the back-ordered ammo is in stock and I have to log on to "confirm" I still want it. By the time I log on (usually about 6:30 am, but once as early as 2:15 am) it's all out of stock again. I've had this ammo on back order since november.

That's just low.

I was at a gunshop in MI today and they had a drum of 5.56 greentip, 12,500 rounds for $7200.00, any takers?

Problem with a purchase like that is that you are likely to be followed home by the ATF...

Where does a dealer even get this? Did they pack it themself or is this how wholesale is sold to repackers?

Gone. That was fast.

Actually, they lasted alot longer than the Thunderbolts did. I got the text and by the time I got to the computer they were gone.

The part about rimfire availability that troubles me the most is that the rounds that I typically buy, are not what the typical .22lr shooter wants.

Ditto, been looking for cci green, lead free frang .22 - bugs me to think people are wasting it on paper targets outside when I want it for indoor use.

I'm up in Ithaca, NY working this week. I dropped by a local Wal-mart to check their stock. Surprise, surprise, the ammo shelf is fully stocked with all the usual stuff and only a 6 box limit. I didn't try to buy any, hard to carry all I'd want to buy back on an airplane and a little sigh on the shelf said that a "permit" was needed for purchases. Thought about seeing if my LTCH would fly, but lack of funds right now was the determining factor.

Next trip you make to New York, let me know. I'd like to help fund it!

Lots of ammo on shelves in NY because no firearms legal there anymore

You can still own a firearm. However, legal magazines to fit them are rare.

My comment shoulda been in purple I guess. As far as magazines, I think you can use 10 rounders, as long as you don't fill them up past 7. lol

I have not seen high velocity 22 long rifle bricks in months. People are buying 22 because it is cheap and it will not stop until gun control talk ceases. People are buying anything with 22 written on it whether it will work in their particular gun or not unbelievable. There was a proposal by 2 democrat lawmakers last month for a 50% tax on ammo probably never pass but just more fuel on the fire.

 

[Span24]

SCORE!!!

Thank you ZX Gun!!!

It's nuts to see places charging upwards of $85 for a brick! When I was a kid, I recall going prairie dog hunting with my grandpa and that he was paying $7.50 for a brick. And not long ago I was paying $15. Fortunately I have plenty...
