We went there to buy my son some new soccer cleats. I was really looking for 9MM when I saw the .22. So my wife and I each bought a box.

Covington Academy had what looked like 100-150 boxes of .22LR this morning at 8:45

Had plenty at noon. I got my 1 box ration.

Glad they have the limit though because of the ASSHOLES* that would buy it out before.

I agree not letting people buy freely, but c'mon, 1 single 50 pack for $2???? At least make it 3 of those 50 packs

I have no intention of selling any of mine. I haven't bought any from the local general public since the shooting though.

Same crap here in Birmingham. One box. I asked could I come back in line and cust svc lady said no. My 22 yr old son did not have his wallet with him so we ended up with one lil tiny box. Doodoo.

Oh yeah, I agree with that. The restriction is pretty silly when it's 50 rnds and $3.

I stopped at Academy on Airline this morning around 9:30 and picked up a box of Hornady 9mm. Was going to pick up a Winchester white box too but they would only let me buy one box per caliber. I thought they had a 3 box limit per caliber or is that overall?
