As a Canadian, it goes without saying that I don’t have nearly enough - too expensive here.

A thousand 9mm rounds, a couple of hundred deer/moose rounds, and that’s basically it.

Canada sucks.

At my current rate of shooting, enough for a lifetime. I hope to get back into it again. It's been a weird and trying few years.

For SD, I have more rounds than I'll probably use in Red Dawn or zombie apocalypse scenarios.

Still I will likely load up more over the next four years.

Also enough for a lifetime at my current rate.

And I still have several thousand small pistol primers which are now older than my oldest child.

I shot about 40k rounds of pistol and another 3-4k of rifle last year. Based on that metric, I have enough 9mm to make it to maybe May and a year's worth of 5.56. even though ammo is available and relatively inexpensive, I am still trying to buy more than I shoot so as not to repeat the mistakes of 2019, when I don't think I bought any ammo, and was shooting less than 20% of what I do now, and watched a stockpile of 20k rounds go to near zero in 2020.

Hmmm… now that radical Demowits have called for war, perhaps not enough. Ample ammo for local and too old and disabled to travel so OK I think.

We're about to hit another Trump Slump, so buy it cheap and stack it deep!

I just bought another 1000 from GA Arms with a 15% coupon and free shipping. Their 5.56 is modified to run in .223 Colt rifles of yesteryear.

Incredibly, I have both too much ammunition and not enough ammunition, all at the same time.

This thread reminds me of rburg, anyone seen him around lately? He always was a proponent of no such thing as too much ammo.




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Every time this thread floats to the top, for some strange reason a very heavy box shows up on my front porch a few days later!

The LGS a mile down the road from me had gen2 PMags for $7.14 last week, so I grabbed a couple more.

I hope we have good times and good pricing for the next several years, but we never know for sure. The lesson has sunk in that it's a good idea to have some supplies socked away.




I have a few SIGs.
