NWI INGO General Post - Part 7

[Andy219]

Ugh, I hate working the day shift. T-minus 32 minutes

 

[jedi]

Jedi has been up since 3:30AM and I'm sure KLB is already at work as well.

My 0500 ammo run was a bust. I went to four different stores and no 9mm or .22lr I got to Portage Walmart at 0520, they had no handgun ammo. There was some .223 not much and some other hunting ammo. Then it was across the street to Meijer at 0540, they only had one box of Winchester .44 and very little rifle ammo. Then it was off to Hobart Walmart at 0605, they did have .45 white box 2 boxes and federal target 8 boxes. They had very little rifle ammo. Last stop was Merrillville‎ Meijer at 0630, no handgun ammo or rifle. 30 miles of driving around, one gallon of gas and nothing to show for. This was my first time getting up early to find ammo and will be my last time. On a brighter not I did stop at Dounkin Donuts and got the kids breakfast.

a curse on thy the gods have laid...
does inventory for all those stores arrive today that you went looking so early in the am?

 

[melensdad]

lone, I have some 9mm I can sell you if you need it. Maybe some 22lr too.

I thought that would just be my best shot to add too my stockpile.

 

[KLB]

You need to try this Friday monring.

 

[lonehoosier]

You need to try this Friday monring.

Or Thursday evening before KLB gets there.

 

[actaeon277]

Now that the media is up in arms about mass shooters again, there will probably be another run on ammo

 

[KLB]

Or Thursday evening before KLB gets there.

Heck, with the three box limit it is hard to do any damage.

I can let you know if Valpo has anything Thursday night

 

[tv1217]

So apparently my Botach order arrived already. Didn't get a shipping notification. Morons.

 

[Wild Deuce]

Consistent (and proven) word from my favorite Walmart employee is that the ammo arrives overnight Wednesdays and gets stocked on the shelves Thursday mornings. If you are not there around 0700 with the rest of the vultures, you will miss your chance at getting whatever came in. The good stuff is usually all gone by 0830. This is for the Schererville store ... don't know about the others. Of course there is off day shipping and stocking but this is a general rule. Also, the rush to buy seems to be slowing down. Yesterday, the CCI .22LR was still available in the late afternoon and almost all the other common calibers were available (except for 9mm ). There was even a case or two of .223 ... 1000 rounds/$447.

 

[actaeon277]

Well, it looks like 3 weeks of physical therapy, 3 times a week.
And of course, more drugs.

 

[actaeon277]

Remember the old plastic "Army Men"?

Something for Jedi........
Century International Arms

 

[actaeon277]

I think the new design shirts are $22.
They have older designs that are cheaper.
Go to Ranger UP, they've got some great designs.
Pete is practically a Ranger Up advertisement, 3/4s of his shirts are probably from there.
I think T_Star got one also.

I've got two. They have some pretty bad ass shirts.

Yup, I love their shirts.
I have maybe 6 or 7 of them, including the 2 I just bought.

 

[BumpShadow]

Hi all! Whats shaken?

Went by your house on the way to work around 5:45 this morning and saw your truck in front. Wondered if you were a late starter?
