Cool Change,
Remember the 10 Golden Rules of
Ammunition:
1) You can never have too much
ammunition on hand. 1k rounds per battle rifle is a good minimum to start with (fubar).
2) Supplies of good surplus run out before you know it, and usually when you're running low on
ammunition so buy plenty while its available.
3) When in doubt about how much
ammunition you should buy, refer to rule #1.
4)
Ammunition is meant to be shot, so shoot often.
5) Because of rule #4,
ammunition must be replenished often as well.
6) When replenishing supply of
ammunition, refer to rules #1 through #3.
7) You must buy at least twice as much
ammunition as you shoot (fubar).
8) Always store
ammunition in a cool dry place (TEA). The only time you have to much
ammunition is when you have a house fire(Slick).
9) If you don't have room in your house to store
ammunition per rule #8, build a bunker or a cellar in your back yard for storing
ammunition (TEA).
10) Friends don't let friends buy Indian surplus
ammunition (TEA). Or Never buy surplus
ammunition from a country where you wouldn't drink the water (midrat). ,
