And toilet paper. I have more diversity on hand than I like to consider at times. But, I do possibly need to increase the amount of ammo for a few calibers. Barter items if needed.

I just did an inventory. Can always use more....

[alancarp]

Ammo by the pallet.

[Proud_texan]

Speaking of ammo...I’ve always gone local but I’d sure appreciate any leads to favorite online resources.

[rktman]

Crap. Now I’ll have to rent a fork lift. :>)

Ammo Supply Warehouse, Pahrump, Nevada. Good prices, always has sufficient inventory, and UPS gets it to me in two days.

Lucky Gunner and Ammo To Go are my online “go to” places.

Lucky Gunner has some good deals. And check post 3 of this thread from another responder.

Or you can use a search engine like this one to compare sellers:

You’re to fast for me.

Preppers’ PING!

Average American solider on patrol carries 240rds. I have a reserve (separate from range time ammo which runs any where from equal down to a 1/3 of that amount) of just over 8 times that is reserved strictly for my battle rifle during shtf.

IMHO anyone who engages in more than 8 fire fights and/or anyone who believes that they could come threw 8 fire fights unscathed during shtf is mental, doing something wrong or both.

I have two Liberty safes, one for ammo the other for guns.

[mad_as_he$$]

Business idea;

Enclose some Charmin with every box of ammo. Like the MRE package.

[rktman]

Probably not after the flood. Right?

Hell, I'd be happy to take two down before my demise. More would be better, but two helps in the long run.

[Proud_texan]

Thanks to you all for taking the time to give me leads, really appreciate it.

I picked up an AR74 for dirt cheap and not too many 5.45x39 rounds in bulk locally.

I'm feeling pretty good about it as long as it doesn't blow up in my face.

There is no such animal as too much ammo. Or too much food.

[mad_as_he$$]

Southeast Asia Wargames Second Place. I took standard load out once and ran out about 30 minutes into the STUFF. After that I dumped food and only carried as much ammo as I could and water.

[Georgia Girl 2]

I always found Lucky Gunner to be high.

While you can still find them, pick up a few firing assembly parts for the 74 ... a trigger and hammer spring would be the minimum to have in reserve. The 74 is usually remarkable durable.
