.........So for those of you that are into guns, you probably know by now that ammo has been pretty much non-existent in the stores since January '13. What you find online, is 3-4x it's original value (gunbroker, bulkammo, etc).

This said, is there ammo in your stores locally? I'd like to get everyones factual response throughout the usa on whether or not ammo is available in your local stores or if its bought up there even...

If I didn't see this coming years ago and stockpile tens of thousands of rounds, I would be scared shitless not being able to buy ammo. I mean for those of you with kids, families, etc who have no ammo - aren't you worried that you can't protect yourself or exercise your right to have guns/ammo? If I didnt have my ammo, crazy people ghillie suits, and all this prepping crap (AND AMMO WAS SIMPLY GONE), I'd be freaked the fuck out, no?

I occasionally go to walmart, target, big5, etc and only find calibers like 7mm, 8mm and other calibers (usually like 2-3 boxes). There's also not enough boxes to buy the gun, then the ammo. 22LR, 308, 30.06, 40, 223, 7.62x39, 9mm, the most common rounds - anything at all for that matter, is simply gone...

March 13th, 2013:
DHS buys 360,000 more bullets, in addition to the 1.6 billion it previously bought.
 


Haven't seen 9mm, 223, 7.62 X39, 22lr, 22 shorts for months
.45 and .40 & .38's are available but limited


everything (shotgun & traditional hunting rifle rounds)else is pretty much fully stocked.
 
I've been watching gunbot.net and slickguns.com. I've been able to score .223 .40 and 22LR every week at decent prices.
 
Personally I bought more 7.62 and shottie rounds than I can store when the shit started falling apart. With that said I check Wally World regularly.

Pulled this from Reddit. Use at your own peril. Except for wanna be Nazi shit bags.

Here is the forum that breaks it down very nicely! I have already scored about 250 rounds of .223 in about two weeks.
I copied and pasted this text from that site for your convenience.
Using Walmart App on Phone to Find AMMO I've been using the Walmart app on my android phone for a good 3-4 weeks now with excellent > > > results. Aquired good amount of 22lrs, 9mm, 380, 7.62 and 223 rounds during that time. Luckly I > > have 13 walmarts in my city and was able to hit the walmarts that have the ammo in stock.
You can find the free walmart app on android market or itunes. And these are what I learned so far > while using it.

  1. When it shows the ammo is in stock, it means several things. As soon as the ammo is scanned at > the main warehouse, it shows its in stock. That means the ammo is anywhere from the main > > > > warehouse, on a truck and being still transported to your walmart. Or, it's sitting in the back of the > stockroom at your walmart (in pallets) and not taken out to the floors yet. Or, shady employees are > hiding it so they can buy it later.

The other day, I went to one of the walmarts early to pick up some 22lrs that shows in stock early in > the morning. Was told by the worker there that they didn't get any shipment in that morning.

Worker and manager there swore there was no shipment. But according to the app, the ammo > > that shows "in stock". changed to "out of stock" by 10am.

  1. When it shows "limited stock", it means there are only 1-3 boxes left.
  2. Find out when your walmart start selling their ammo. Usually the ammo shipment arrives in the > > evening and they wont start selling it until the morning. Mine is usually around 7-8am. Every > > walmart runs different. Some have 3 box limit, some has 1 box limit, some open at 7am, some sell ammo all night. I usually check the inventories at night and plan which walmart to hit in the mornings. Usually the app gets really busy around 6-8am and might crash.
  3. The people I've been telling to about the walmart app been getting really lucky. Sure beats waiting in huge lines at bass pro shop or academy. The lines are usually sparse here since not alot know about the app.*
 
stop spreading lies. That kid did not kill a deputy. And even if he had, whats your point?

Spreading lies? I didn't change the title, thats what comes up when you paste the URL into WF. It cuts off the 's after Deputy or Gawker does it on purpose for linkbait. probably the latter.

The point is keep them guns and ammo safe bros.

Well I will say this. Shame on that deputy. At 4 years old my kids knew to never touch guns.
 
Sounds to me like Wilson County Deputy Daniel Fannin killed his wife. The toddler isn't responsible, and the gun didn't leave it's self loaded on the bed.
 
I can't find almost anything anywhere (canton,ohio), about to make an online order this week actually.
