I must be a glutton for punishment.

The November 19th buy threads resulted in over 500 people signing up, about a third of them doing it, and over 140,000 rounds bought.  Not to mention at least 2 account lockings, one of a gold member, for trolling them so bad.

So what do yall think?

What happened to the "I'll never do that again"?

I don't need an occasion to buy ammo.

But if there *IS* one, I can take part.

Did anyone in the real world seem to notice?

Again, not that it matters--more ammo is always fine.

Why carry ammo when the UPS guy can do it for me?

I was drinking then, and I'm drinking now.  When I said that, that wasn't my first double jack of the night  And even though it's not noon yet, I've had a few wild turkeys in me.  I'll bite the bullet and do it, just cause everyone wanted me to, and I have to have some good excuse for my post count being so high.

Can we buy out somebody besides Wal-Mart?
1/17/2006 8:51:21 AM EDT
[#11]
I say yes!  BUT.  Since the big button pusher was the fact we were all buying fom Wal Mart...and several people posted the ammo they got at gun shoews and whatnot anyway....  Why don't we just ahve an ammo day for the sake of ammo.

Set the day, we all sign up.  We all go buy ammo, Wal Mart, Gun Show, Academy, Dicks, local shop, even online.  Where ever.  Then we post pics and run a count to see how much ammo ARFCOM can hoard in one day.

I'm trying to inject fun into it.  It worked last time.

Maybe I could arrange another group ammo purchase thru MCC.  It was mainly for SS109 62 grain on LC brass, and .308 AP but I know there is no more of that.  There is pretty much any type of ammo available.

I'll see if I can dig up the old thread.

I'm in for a couple thousand rounds of .22LR.  Money is tight, but this is always fun.

Which are you more proud of, the ammo bought or the locked accounts?

Who got their account locked

[#33]
I don't remember, but he wouldn't quit trolling.  He got I think 3 warnings before they did it,  They finally did it after he trolled the second thread so bad that I had to create another so they could delete the second one.  AFter I made the third, he trolled it and they locked him.

I'm up for it, I couldn't participate last time (I think it was the last day of deer season or something) but you can count me in this time.

BTW: the one here never has .223 so I will have to go for .40

Same here.  Sometimes I wonder if they are going to turn me in to Homeland Security just so they don't have to carry all that ammo.

Yes, If I can figure out a way of getting it delivered without my wife finding out - I've been buying alot of stuff. These days I'm in big trouble when that big brown truck pulls into the driveway.

I'm in , It was fun, and Dusty did a great job on the updates. I don't know about all the WW bashing, but I'll bet *Winchester appreciated Operation Mayhem.

*Winchester. **mostly made in the USA, Winchester.

**Israel too, I know.

I dare anyone to use their DU account to plug it over there once we get close to the day. You could claim the ammo buy is to keep ammo off the streets of the inner city and out of the weapons of the GI's in Iraq.

Sounds good..  

If we do it at one particular place,  can we make it in the evening so the day shifters could play     something like 8:30eastern should about cover anyone who works till 5

I'm in again. I'll make a better contribution this time.

Be a real smart ass and make it tax deadline day, make the IRS worry a little......

EDIT: Or even the day before (April 14? I think?).

Diet of Speyer makes the first steps of the Reformation.  Battles of Lexington and Concord.  FDR abandons the gold standard.  Bay of Pigs fails.  Salyut 1 failure.  Waco.  Current Pope Benedict elected.

I can't decide if that day is cursed or blessed.
