Since you can't really go back to when steel case 9mm was 12 cents, I would have to disagree. Unless you stacked it very, very deep then, this is the perfect time to buy ammo.

All I can say is that it was much easier to have my personal CFO approve of a new gun than new ammo a month ago ... Which is why I remain a 9mm + 308 guy :)

A few years too late in my particular case. I was not speaking for, nor intending to speak for everyone else.

tl;dr: I have enough for my purposes.

Sorry for any confusion and consternation created by my poorly worded post.

Understood, and fair.

For my part, 'enough ammo' is kinda like 'enough time'. A bit more is always good.

Also magazines.
 
I've got way more magazines than I'll ever need...and a good amount of ammo...most of which was amassed in between scares and shortages at very reasonable prices. More might be better, but at a certain point, I think enough is enough. (I don't burn it up at a high rate these days.)

By my calculations I have enough mags and ammo to last the rest of my life plus 127 years. But I plan to live forever so...

I had a friend who served in Iraq.... he called me and told me he was coming home soon, then asked if I paid my taxes.... i said yes

Soon as he got home ...... he brought me 20 m4 magazines and a bunch of other stuff...

He said "you paid for this"

I thought that was pretty awesome of him

That's per pistol yeah? 🤔 That's a pretty solid setup ... That was my original goal many moons ago when it was mostly about hunting and an occasional carry ... then I got into the shooting sports rather than just hunting and ... then the world changed ... so those numbers have been adjusted slightly a time or twoooo ...

Yep, magazines are just as important, if not more than ammo, could not agree more (as long as they are loaded) As I’m sure they are 👍.
 
Well guys, I'm sorry to admit that I'm about to be deported.


I'm a 5th-generation "American", a 15-year LE veteran, and a former "Three-Letter" U.S. Security Contractor in Iraq and the West Bank.

Despite that, the "Special Weapon" in this vid revealed my TRUE identity...

Between my mom not being able to hear today and the Dr can’t arrive till tomorrow,
to clean her ears.

My youngest daughter is overworked and already out of hours for the quarter unless gets promoted.

My oldest daughter took my juicer, but Amazon says it will deliver by 6pm tonight a new one.

My sister all pissed off due to my mom’s condition of not being able to hear, and my sister will only call while driving. and wants the nurse to take notes (not gonna happen),

It’s raining, thank goodness it’s not snowing. Only had to rake the leavs from the drain, and broke 2 fingernails in the process ( and I keep them short too.

So cut them extra short and filed untra smooth.

My dominant hand swelled up unexpectedly today, dunno why, but doesn’t hurt, maybe napped funny.

Breakfast tasted wonderful, lunch was great, looking forward to dinner.

Thank God for the CPK family and my sense of humor 👍🤣
