I have ammo running outa my butt. I'm just here to watch the cat fight :).

Buying only what you "need" is relative. This week I only need 100 rounds for the range, but if I can't find it for another 5 weeks I "need" 500 rounds. OP congrats on the score.

I'm all for it.  We don't have enough taxes to begin with.  Everybody needs to contributing their fair share.  :shake:   Honestly, I don't know why they are d**king around with this weak piece of legislation.  They might as well just go ahead and confiscate our paychecks and retirement accounts. Then they give us back what they think we need to live.  After all, 90% of American people support it, it is for the children, and if just one person might be saved it needs to be done.

I hate to say it but the governance of Memphis has been left to unquailified fools who are doing more to destroy a once great city than preserving it.

Thats kinda the situation i thought you to be in based on your original post. No one likes to shoot down to empty and then be completely out wondering when the next time they will have anything will be. I personally reload and have some supplies so i wouldn't have needed that much 9mm so no, i probably wouldn't have bought 800 rounds. That being said if i didn't reload and had no reserves i would have been tickled to find 800 rounds so that i could do a modest amount of shooting and not be bone dry after doing so. I personally have been about out of .22 which my wife has started to shoot and enjoy and for the 1st time since the madness i found a winchester 333rd pack a few days ago for her. I was glad to have it but thats it 333 rounds and we are back in the same boat again so yes if there had been more there i would have bought more. To me, until someone is out or almost completely out they shouldn't cast stones at someone that has been and then got the opportunity to not be. Just my opinion and it may be worth no more than i charged for it. 

  I 100% agree.  I go through 1000s of 9mm and .45 every year and only buy in lots of 1000 or 2000 at a time.  That may last a month.  So why all the heartache if a guy buys a case when he has a chance? Some of us actually buy and shoot that quantity.   Some people play golf or go boating and some of us spend our money on ammo and range fees.   Joe, I hope you burn that entire box through that M&P in one range session!

It isn't getting any better. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-04-26/total-us-debt-gdp-105 We're almost to $17,000,000,000,000.00 ($17 trillion) in debt now. Visualized: http://youtu.be/iTBODoBaCns http://demonocracy.info/infographics/usa/us_debt/us_debt.html http://demonocracy.info/infographics/usa/federal_reserve-qe3/money_printing-2012-2013.html Let's hear it for a total failure of leadership on all sides, Dems, Reps, etc., for wasting time on stupid crap that steals freedom and liberty such as anti-2A gun control, while we crumble financially. The goals and priorities of our government are backwards and corrupt!

Some people won't want to hear this, but Memphis is a microcosm of this country as a whole. Memphians and other American voters are voting for sh#t box candidates as a means of thumbing their noses at the perceived powers that be. If you perceive that you have always been crapped on, why not put someone in office who makes you feel good and irritates the person or persons who you perceive have wronged you. I hope that this statement makes sense.

  It is rather difficult to get enthusiastic when one has to decide between a piece of s*** and a pile of s***.   Liberals rally around their candidates because they know that even through compromise, they will still gain ground.  When Republicans compromise, we always lose ground.  I will say it again as I did in my earlier posts, pointing out and/or complaining about the flaws of a candidate (past or present) in no way reflects on the future success of Republicans candidates.  If Republicans field strong candidates then their chance for success is good, and if they field weak candidates or people vote for them in the primaries because they are perceived to be the most electable, they will more than likely lose.

Ok, Jones story.   We were playing in Wisconsin... sold out 15,000 seats... he does "He Stopped Lovin' Her Today"... I play the harmonica part, and Sue Richards does the female "ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo" thing... when he's finished, he comes over and says, "Ladies and gentlemen, Ms. Sue Richards!" Everyone applauds. Then, "And over here on the harmonica, ol' Mike Doooo-shet! Take a bow!"   And he hits me in the nuts. In front of 15,000 people.

I don't like the signs. The signs are very unprofessional. In my opinion, you can't pay our public servants enough, but those billboards cross the line. I would like to see the officers get a pay increase, but I would also like to get a more professional department in return. I'm more afraid of some of our officers than I am of the cities gang members.

Not hard to go through a couple of bricks in an afternoon with those. Enjoy your good luck.

Fixed it for you.

Exactly. This isn’t going on in all jails and prisons. If it’s going on here they need a change in administration.

Shouldn't they be busting granite for about 14 hours a day?

Moonlight is a must.  However, I would recommend hitting it after you go to the gun shop because you'll be in a food coma.  Be careful driving home afterwards.  :)

Calls Jake at State Farm @ 3:00 am, but it's not for insurance.

SPeaking of... we need some upbeat stuff for the new house, as soon as my wife is done with her finals on Thursday, we're going around to the pounds and find us a 4 legged good mood generator :)

  first of all i did NOT "circumvent store policy" the policy was 10 boxes per customer per day ... the owner and his wife were both present and they both know me AND my wife, even though we are married we are still 2 different people, so im sorry if the fact that i finally after many months of looking found a decent bit of ammo but i didnt realize that my fellow gun enthusiasts were so in need that they would turn on me like the fat guy in the donner party, secondly i used the term "wiped them out" fairly loosely .. after the 16 boxes me and my wife picked up there were still probably 20 left on the table of the same kind (was on a folding table at the end of the counter with a few other calibers/brands) ... and MANY other boxes of other brands of 9mm behind the counter, i did however pick up  the last 2 boxes of .22 bulk they had, picked up the first 2 (it was 1 box per customer per day) the day before right as they closed, which is why i knew to be there when they opened the next day lol

I have read all the books, and have seen the movie and am anxiously awaiting the next two movies.  I have no shame, I adore the series.

So how much did you leave for the next customer?

  Conversely, I fully understand why many people want to stay as anonymous as possible regarding completely legal private firearms sales.   - OS

I think I'll just stick to waterproof Sharpie Pens for my tattoos!

Chemical weapons hahahahaha junior is such a crackup! But it worked! And Halliburton made millions hahahajaja

At least I don't have to wonder of that would work. We should have more people like him in a special facility testing all the dumb ideas that we are to smart to do ourselves.

  Give up the conspiracy theories.  All you need to do is look at your fellow gun owners for the current problem.  Liberals and/or the government aren't scarfing up ammo at WalMart to sell at 100-200% profit.  They're not posting stuff at 100-200% profit in the classifieds or on auction sites.

We hear a lot of noise about people going to stand across the street and offer to buy everytime there is a buyback in this state.  Never seems to happen.   Don't worry if the tactics are the same or what you look like, you'll be branded a crazy right-winger for sure, but that's better than an idiot liberal I guess.

Maybe if they had midnight shooting ranges these wild guns would be a happier more content race.

well truth be told i HAVENT been shooting much because i didnt want to go through what little i had on hand simply because i couldnt find anymore ... my wife had the misfortune of becoming addicted to shooting just before all the ammo dried up and she has been dieing to get out and shoot the SR22 and M&P22 more so now we have that option .. i have 3 9mm handguns i havent even been able to shoot yet, and now hopefully she can step up from the .22 to the 9mm soon 

Oh, as an FYI, Ender's Game is finally being made into a movie with Harrison Ford as Colonel Graff and Ben Kingsley as Mazer Rackham.

With so many illegals in their state, wouldn't that technically be classified as their "peers"?

Have to stay away from the larger breeds, we're looking for a couple of smaller yappie dogs, one will be a pound doggie and we'll be keeping an eye out for a boston terrier for me later down the road.  They pop up occasionally, and we're in no hurry on that one.

IMO your use of the phrases "wiped them out" and the fact that you circumvented the 10 box limit by having your wife  go in and buy as well is what is rubbing a lot of us the wrong way. Congrats on your ammo score, but in times like these bragging about the fact that you left none for anybody else by abusing store policy is not going to make you a lot of friends.

The Garand in in a whole other league. With all the other options for military surplus rifles, I think the demand for Mosins has been so high, only because they were/are cheap.

  If it hasn't, it might actually make an improvement.

Sad that McCain, Senator from Constitutional Carry Land, is saying anything besides no, never, and not a chance.

They both should move to CA and get married to each other and live happily ever after.

Obama "If I had a white wife, she'd look just like you"

Bad week?  No not at all.  I helped out several clients with serious problems and signed up a few new ones.  Ammo-wise, several times this week I saw it for sale online at good prices and passed up on it.  I either don't need it or I'm pretty confident the price will be even lower in a month or so.  Not to sound elitist, but for these people who camp out at Walmart and such...dude I make 10 times more in an hour than you'll make waiting to buy and then resell that box of ammunition.  So while you're standing in line, I'm getting a good night's sleep, then going to work at a profession I love, making good money, and at my leisure I can check all the online ammo websites from the comfort of my home or office, and buy it for about the same price you did.  So go ahead, stand in line, drive around all day, but what you should really do is take that work ethic and put it into a marketable skill.

    You saw Dog the Bounty Hunter?

And most of them still believe I was born in America!

No we really need another Calvin Coolidge :)  Clearly the best President we've had in the last 100 years    

Well she aced the women's safety course with a 99% on the shooting part that used the new target the same as the new HCP course target. She would have had a 100% but one of the range officers touched her to try and get her to move closer to the target just as she pulled the trigger, but she atleast kept it in the blue on that shot even after being startled. So since her confidence is high right now, I went ahead and signed her up for Saturday's HCP course at the same place. I've done my best to prepare her and she didn't need any help and was praised by the teacher and fellow students for being able to handle her revolver like she's had it for years instead of only weeks. And i even went as far as making sure I had bought enough matched brand and load target ammo to cover both courses so she would be used to it and try to eliminate all variables from different loads. I hope she passes it all then it's off to expensively lol let her practice using the hydroshock 38 +p loads I bought for her to carry. Sent from my HTCEVOV4G using Tapatalk 2

  I can think of many reasons....the most obvious is they come take his other guns because of whatever disaster happens that the government can "legally" come get.  He doesnt fight because he has very young kids, and no matter what I wouldnt resist them with my 1 year old in the house, nor would he.  Now they are gone and chaos hits.  He can still protect his family and live to fight another day when his surroundings turn into something similiar to downtown Detroit.      Do you really think once they disarm us they are going to stick around and protect us from unrest?........ask people in New Orleans how that worked out for them.      I will not fight for my right to the second ad if my daughter is in the house....Im sorry but I will not put her life in danger. I cant protect her if im dead or in jail or if she was hurt in the process.     With that said they come and take guns...... but you have a secret stash they do not take......when things turn into Revolution, or The Walking Dead long after they are gone....we still have a chance.

If I was doing it vacation style? Guns and ammo half price, stand by Helicopter exfiltration and CSAR unit in case I get in a bad situation, and group rate discounts so I could go in with a team

New here? Step up and tell us about yourself. A good format to follow would be your first name (if you care to share it), where you're from, what your interests are, what gun(s) you have, where you like to shoot, etc. It helps break the ice and you might just find new friends as a result.
