Interesting, I just googled one of the largest guns and ammo stores in the USA. They have 178 different brands of 223 Remington (an AR 15 round) in their catalog, but only 21 of them are not back ordered.
Maybe people are giving ammo for Christmas presents!!!! |

When you are an instructor, it helps to have familiarity with various different firearms. Does an electrician have one screwdriver?
They are not all in my safe because my children are grown up. Only people I know are invited into my house. I don't think my wife will shoot me (you never know) . |

The postie was supposed to have a separate strike for each stamp (this did not always transpire).
