If you get desperate for ammo, hit me up. I'll sell you a bulk pack out of my personal stash for only $75.

CCI mini mags for only $25 a box.

 

[GregD]

Are you talking $25 per box of 100?

Yep. The truly scary thing is that I've seen customers offering other customers ammo for these outrageous prices.

Time for some SnS... Steak n shake, not the chocolate squirrel master

 

[GregD]

Way to much. That is part of the reason I'm shooting a lot 9mm

 

[GregD]

Got an early day tomorrow, better start getting ready for bed.
Good night all

I can't wait for this whole ammo shortage stuff to stop...it's just a manufactured crisis!

If I continue to shoot at the same rate I am good across the board for a long time. Yet, I still buy ammo when I can find it at a fair price.

What's fair prices for what brand in 9mm and 45 acp?

Anybody interested in a box of 45 GAP?

 

[GLOCKMAN23C]

CM, to answer your earlier question, yes I'm still working on it.

I wish I had a good excuse, but I don't.

It is getting cold outside my friend. Best get with it.

 

[GLOCKMAN23C]

I should have got it going today, but the exhaust manifold bolts I got from work were about 1/4" too long, and bottomed out. It will be running before Wednesday.

A fair price is what you are willing to pay. We shoot a lot of .45 ACP in Remington UCP and Federal. These rounds ranged in the 40 cents per area before the insanity. I have paid 50 cents per over the summer and been able to replace what we shoot. Not many deals out there right now but ammo can be found.

Perfect. Hope it runs better without the bolt in the cylinder................
I have little room to talk as we have been on a project all summer and it is not done. 1971 Buick Riviera. Motor is done and detailed. Trans is done but not detailed. Waiting on some pulley's and bits that were broken. Manifold bolts (exhaust) were snapped off when the motor was pulled. Broke 2 more off trying to get the manifolds off the heads. Drilling these out are a nightmare.

Yes I know, I broke an "e-z" out off in one, and ended up using 2 carbide burrs to cut it out, then re-tapped it. If you need a burr, let me know.
