I have a question:
I have seen alot lately that stores are limiting the amoutn of ammo that a person can buy at a time......"3 box per customer"......................Why? Is this a law? Did the stores make this up? If I want to walk into albertsons and buy every god damn pickle that they have in the place..........they would gladly sell it to me.
So ammo is flying off the shelves right now......so what..........if I want it then i should be able to buy it unless its federal law.
amirite?

They are just trying to please more customers and help share the wealth. If not, hoarders and scalpers would be camped out there buying it all.

Fair enough.....I was pretty sure that there wasnt a law restricting the sales.

It's their store, they can do what they want. And I for one am glad for the restrictions, though I think Academy should use some common sense with theirs. 20 rounds of .223 is nothing.

Nothing wrong with that. I've bought 8 Glock 17 mags in the past couple months and I don't own a G17. Yet.

How much are 30 round AR mags going for? I've got dozens left over from when I was Army.

.223/5.56 was hit the hardest. The whole top shelf was full of tul ammo, independence, and Winchester white box FMJ when I posted earlier

You guys should try gun shops instead of sporting goods stores
Looking at thousands of 22LR, .223 and 30 round PMAGS
You're rigt, except many of us (like me) don't have ANY gun shops nearby. Many of us are lucky just to have a WM.....

The sun is starting to shine again. Just bought 500 rounds of 223. for about .70 a round.
Ammo is starting to appear on the shelfs again. 
To all the clowns that was charging $1.50/round 
We will remember you
