I have been told that if you buy 10000 rounds of ammo online or if say your online on a page ooh say like this one and you post that you have large stock of ammo that you will end up on a gov watch list Think it through just for a minute. Who is going to report you? Cabellas? AIM Surplus? Why would they report you? They aren't required to. If you pay via credit card, I wouldn't be shocked at all if VISA/MC passes along your purchasing history to the .gov. |
| I may be reaching a bit here but, I think posting on AR15.com that you are going to go and buy XX million rounds of ammo, will be enough to get you on a list somewhere. If you don`t get on "their" list somehow, you will assuredly make it on "our" list. Men in suits and ties, or body armor and machine guns will not show up at your door for the "our" list. You will just get endless e-mails ( enough to overload your e-mail message limit ), the "I think it is aliens" pic in your thread or the "you gonna get raped" pic. Outside of that...........well...... |

no need to get nasty i though it was bullshit just wanted to see what you guys though i still buy online dont care if i make a list or not hard to beat the prices You know, sometimes when you think something is bullshit, you are right, and you really DON'T need to post a thread about it.

Every time I order ammo brown vans show up at my house within a few days and irritable guys ask me to sign stuff! 
They drop off boxes labeled "explosives" and "ORM-D" right on my door step. They also carry some sort of high tech tracking gear. 
Well at least they don't throw them onto your front porch without stopping the truck.

Quoted: OP, it's a common ArfCom practice to deny ownership of any guns to avoid some future gun confiscation (tongue-in-cheek). One usually claims to have lost all of his/her guns in a "boating accident". Welcome aboard! Don't feel bad, I STILL don't understand the "random picture" threads (of course once you see my screen name...).Quoted: How many guns did you lose in that boat? LMFAO!  ETA*** OP you should have lurked here for a bit (like I did) before diving in! |

Quoted:
now thats funny. Dear Daddygotguns This is by no means a criticism. Please don't get your feelings hurt. But it's clear to me that you need a lesson on how to use the internet. When having a conversation on a forum like ar15.com, it is necessary to click the "quote" button, and not the "reply" button when you wish to address a post. Otherwise, nobody knows who the hell you are talking to. Carry on.
