So some jackwad was in academy yesterday and just started grabbing baskets and proceeded to fill them with all of the .223 ammo (yes, .223... all grains, all brands, bulk and single box) he could fit in them. Literally every box he could grab. Shortly after someone mentioned the ATF was "banning AR Ammo"... so then others joined in, even asking if there were anymore boxes of .223 in the back. Once he was done, I did notice two SPAM cans of .223 on an end cap that he missed... I almost chased him down to make sure he got them so later he could feel even more like an idiot.
Well, his grabbing of the ammo like that, I stood back and watched for a second... you could see the fear growing in every guys face standing there as they all began grabbing two or three boxes that remained on the shelf. It was reminiscent of the Cabbage Patch wars of '83.
Shortly thereafter, the employee restocking other ammo was asked by someone (after the crowd dissipated), "Are they banning all AR ammo?", and he responded, "No, just the military grade green tip stuff". Then a question was asked, "What's the difference in .223 and 5.56?" and quickly another one, "Can you shoot .223 from a 5.56 or 5.56 in a .223?"... followed by someone stating, "Mine says it shoots both". so obviously a bunch of knowledgeable individuals. I mean Seriously? Are we going to have another "you can buy one box of ammo" episode again but with 5.56 ammo?
What the heck people??? Doesn't anyone read? or are they just listening to heir brother's friend's cousin's father's son's rumors? Not that it really effects me, I shoot 300BLK... but its just ridiculous! It was reminiscent of the Cabbage Patch Wars of '83.
