    Ammunition Find

    I keep hearing about not being able to find ammunition. My dealer has plenty of .223/.556, 7.62X51, 7.62X39, .45, .380, .38, 9 m/m, etc. Their address is Fort Thompson, 5802 Warden Rd, North Little Rock, AR 72120. Phone is 501-835-3006.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Ammo around here is scarce and expensive. I load my own so all I need is components which are also in short supply. Local shop has primers at .10 each. I woun't be buying them for a while. Maybe price will come down.

    CMP still has it listed @$155 for 500 rounds. They are also saying 120 to 190 days. I just got mine that was ordered the 2nd week of Dec. I may just order another 500 rounds

    I remember someone from Rhode Island saying much the same thing. Just stacks of it in the middle of the floor. A lot of us are dry ---Primers are over $30 a brick when you can find them, powder trickles in slowly and some bullets are impossible to find so we had to start casting our own 7.62 Russianicon and .30. Still looking for a good carbine bullet.

    Yes, at $10.00 a box and I always but by the case, it's $500.00. When I buy primers I order a case of each so that would be $2000.00. Toooo high. Soon only the very wealthy will be able to shoot.

    You mean only the "elite".
    the rest of us are "terrorists" especially if you are veteran according to some in our gov't.
