you'll still be able to buy that bright yellow suicide machine once Hillary's president...just saying...
I own enough that my children's children will never have to worry about a shortage.

I own 5 SBR lowers and enough ammo to last me the rest of my life. What exactly should I be stockpiling?

I bought my first 5.56 round today. It felt weird paying so much for ammo

Did you pay $.30/round shipped (or carried out)?

You must be used to one of the x39 rounds.
I went to academy and picked up some monarch brass. I think it was close to .39 a round. Only bought 140 rounds though. The only reason I bought there is so I could have it for this weekend, cause I am hoping to get to the range today.

Got something against steel? It should be pretty easy to get a case of brass for $300, shipped.

300 for brass. Generally monarch steel is pretty reasonable, about 25 per, just wondering why he didn't get steel at the store.

Brass case copper jacket x39 for $300?! Where?
