Pure data collection.

I’m sure every bit goes straight to the BATFE.

I want to see these in my area. I’m usually a little intimidated buying ammo.

I hit a dirty look from some girly cashier, one time. Other than that, no problems.

How many rounds do these machines spit out per second? And how do you aim them?

If that happened to me, I’d bust out laughing at her/it.

I have mixed feelings; always suspicious of anyone that is not buying a case of 1,000 rounds.

Bought lots of ammo at Walmarts in Texas: would have had more hassle buying booze.

Buy online. Buy in quantity if you want to save money.

Even if you boutique buy, a quality place like Midway will probably save you money over a gimmicky vending machine. And no "facial scan" that the machines supposedly do as part of their security theater.

Let’s see suppressors too. You can buy them in hardware stores in England.

These jerks do not know the difference between a bullet and a cartridge.

Costs more to buy 1,000 rounds a box at a time...

I remember pre-1968 when you could get a gun anywhere as most stores had a counter of them. Guns were more available then as you could get a gun at a gas station, pawn shop, hardware store, clothing store, record shop, book store, liquor store, feed store, grocery store. They were everywhere! Cash and carry. No background check, no waiting period, no paperwork. No ID, Just look old enough.
Or you could drop a check in the mail and one would be shipped to your door.
And crime was very low. It was after JFK was murdered by a COMMIE and Bobby Kennedy murdered by a PALESTINIAN IMMIGRANT that the Dems declared war on the private ownership of firearms. That war on your rights is still going on.

I’ve seen news stories on this in Alabama. Last time I bought loaded ammo I just asked for what I wanted and paid cash at the counter...no ID needed. The machines make you scan your driver’s license. All I buy these days is powder, brass and primers...mail order (can’t find what I shoot in local gun shops). Make my own bullets. I shoot benchrest so it’s pretty specialized stuff.
