Just stopped back up to where I bought the AR and got a 1000 rounds for $335. It won't last. Figure 223 will go for a buck a round soon.

Well I do not own an AR, or a Ruger Mini 14 so I do not need any 223 ammo, But years ago I did buy a AK-47 National Match with the 21" barrel it is pretty accurate, and very reliable, and ammo at that time was 80.00 for 1500 rounds, again that was a while back, not as far back as 15cent a gallon gas but a while back, Gary

I also do not own an AR but two Siaga 12 ga with 20 round drums came home the last time we went through this. I was considering selling one of them but no longer. If the b***h gets in never, be able to buy one again.

I just bought 250 rounds of UMC 45 ammo. The 223 ammo is usually FMJ stuff. I have probably 10,000 55gr V-Max's. It will splat a prairie dog and an intruder. The problem is that the Cooper it's chambered in will only splat them one at a time

From today's Washington Free Beacon:

"The number of gun-related background checks performed in July far exceeded those of any previous July, newly released numbers from the FBI show.

"The National Instant Criminal Background Check System, or NICS, processed nearly 2.2 million checks last month. That represents an increase of almost 600,000 checks over the previous record set last year. It is also an increase of more than a million checks over July 2011.

The July record is the latest in a string of 15 record-setting months for firearm background checks. July also saw an increase over June’s numbers as the gun industry’s seasonal lull comes to an end.

"This calendar year, with more than 16 million checks on record thus far, remains on pace to break the NICS check record for a single year set in 2015. ..."

Just a question. Why do folks seem to need to keep up with the "black gun" purchases an ammo to go with it? Honest question.

Probably because those seem to be the 'target' of those who would infringe upon the rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.

It is my firm belief that if the gun manufacturers would start making them in various shades of green, i.e., spring green, forest green, leaf green, moss green, grass green, etc., these guns would be far more readily accepted... even by folks like Hillary; heck, even by folks like Al Gore and his ilk who embrace and propound all things 'green'.... doncha think?
