So, I am finally in a routine of going to the range every week (hint: Plate bay first, before I get wore out) and now I find myself in need of resupply. Who has the best prices on 556? I can't seem to find it cheaper than $0.30 a round, and I am not ready to start reloading. Where are all ya'll getting ammo from? has it for $0.28. I tend to order from these guys on the rare occasion I order ammo. I wish they (or anyone else) could ship ammo to AK.  |

I can't seem to find it cheaper than $0.30 a round, and I am not ready to start reloading. Where are all ya'll getting ammo from? Varies. I have used all of the following multiple times with great results. sportsmansguide.com ammunitiontogo.com aimsurplus.com cheaperthandirt.com I only buy .223/5.56, 9mm and .45, so I don't know if they have good pricing on other calibers. With a little patience I can usually find 9 for $10/box or so and .223 for $4.50 a box (Wolf or other discount brand, typically, although you can get deals on the fancier stuff as well). That said... |

I just got a letter from Aim Surplus that their site had been hacked and customer information had been stolen, mostly in the form of copies of the ID you had to digitally send in to confirm you could buy whatever it was you were buying. So, my driver's license front page might be floating around out there in some cybercriminals portfolio, waiting to be used. I only hope he/she starts recieving all my bills if he/she decides to use it...  I'm kind of in the mind of 'well, this shit is going to happen from time to time if you conduct any financial business online', and Aim is providing a year of free service with ProtectmyID and said they're addressing the problem with security upgrades. That's probably about all they can do, realistically, and I'll no doubt continue to use their site. I've had great experience with them in the past, ordered tons of stuff with no problems whatsoever. |

This is why all my on-line business is done with a CC rather than a debit card.
Makes it easy to recover funds from any fraudulent charges. Never, IMHO, use a debit card online.

$.30 is about what I pay. I wait for sales from Targetsportsusa.com since they have free shipping on bulk.

/Rant
Do I have my expectations too high for humanity nowadays? Wife says I do.
As an early beta tester for gmail, I was able to get a good email address that I use as my prime addy. (Mylastname)@gmail. No symbols, no numbers, no firstname.lastname.2345@gmail. I routinely get emails with invoices, bills, notifications, all the stuff of daily life addressed to me for others with my last name. I usually respond with "You have the wrong email address, sorry" Sometimes I'll take initiative and find/forward the email along, One guy in Jersey had Green Day tickets...
It pisses me off to no end with I dont receive a "Thank you" or a "sorry" or even a "go f@ yourself" from the businesses when I do. Last week I had an appraiser send me an invoice and a 22 page appraisal and some court documents to me. I responded that I was sorry, and he had the wrong address... (Crickets)... nothing, nada. I know if I was on the other end, and sent something out wrong, I'd be very appreciative that someone took the time to respond to me and let me know I made a mistake...
Bah!

First World Problems. I feel your pain. My biggest annoyance like that is how I send time-critical emails to coworkers, fully knowing I am going to have to track them down in person in 2 days to get an answer.
Somedays, I just wanna sit on a beach and watch the world burn.

Somedays, I just wanna sit on a beach and watch the world burn. It goes the other way too. I have a coworker that will send an email and then call me. I'm like "Dude its not even in my inbox." Funniest part is he use to do that and he sat 10 feet away from me, but will still CALL. Get off your lazy ass and walk over here. |

MD I buy ALL my online ammo from SGammo. All of it. In fact I hate buying from other sites for various reasons. Did I mention I'm loading brass case .223 ball for $3.50/20  |

Bah! /end Rant No, it's not just you. IMO people have become exceedingly rude, crass and devoid of inter personal skills. I was a member of a few different clans for an online game. Well, the first one had the leader cussing at me. Nope, left. Went to the next one, dood started acting like a 12 yo. Nope, left. Next one had some grown ass man making fart noises into the team speak for hours while we played. Nope. Enough of that. Left. There was more stupid bullshit basically on the level of ZS so yeah, nope.
So after I left the last clan they got mad at me. Yeah like pissed I left. I was all, ummm, do you recall this? Or that? Or how about this gem? Nope, I was the bad guy for not tolerating childish behavior from grown ass men.
So I've now moved on to another clan where I'm already in charge of the team battles and probably going to become their combat officer. A position I was passed over so that a 46% player who was considered funny would get it. I'm a 52% player. Yeah, don't pick the best guy for the job, pick your bestie.
Anyway, longer story but that behavior is everywhere.
