Title: November 19 is National Ammo Day - What do you think ?
Post by: Johnny Bravo on October 07, 2009, 05:44:59 PM
Ive seen this around and recieved something from Gunsamerica today. What do you think of this ?


November 19 is National Ammo Day.

It is a nationwide BUYcott of ammunition.  You buy ammunition.  100 Rounds a person.

The goals of Ammo Day:

The goal of National Ammo Day is to empty the ammunition from the shelves of your local gun store, sporting goods, or hardware store and put that ammunition in the hands of law-abiding citizens.  Make your support of the Second Amendment known--by voting with your dollars!

There are an estimated 75 MILLION gun owners in the United States of America.  If each gun owner or Second Amendment supporter buys 100 rounds of ammunition, that’s 7.5 BILLION rounds in the hands of law-abiding citizens!


The gun/ammunition manufacturers have been taking the brunt of all the frivolous lawsuits, trying to put these folks out of business.  Well, not if we can help it!  And we CAN help it by buying ammunition on November 19!

A message brought to you by your friendly neighborhood gun store owner, Cerberus, Winchester Co., Sturm Ruger, Beretta, so on, and so on.

No reason not to.  If Hallmark can create holidays to sell cards...

This has been going on for a few yrs, I like it, but last year, most of it was GONE >:(

My local Wallyworld, has had .223 100rd packs, Federal, .45 Remington 230 grn ball, and WW white box 9mm 100 rd packs, The past 4 weeks, limit 2 boxes per day, but found a nice guy who let me buy 6, and the next Sunday 3 boxes at a time. AT decent prices. .223 40 bucks a hundred, .45 18 bucks for 50, and 9mm 21 bucks per hundred.

Still lots of empty space on the shelves, but at least some. Still buying the Federal .22 rf, in the bulk pack every chance I get.
