So I emailed 22WMR about his location, and we are on almost opposite sides of the state. Pretty weird for this to happen only a couple of weeks apart...
I live in Michigan and have never been asked for ID. when buying ammo. Of course I'm 57 years old so I don't pass for a young man. I usually buy my ammo at Dick's sporting Goods, Cabela"s, Meijers or where it is on sale. This is not Michigan law. If you were paying for it by credit card, maybe he needed to make sure that your card matched your ID.
I bought some toilet paper from Wally World right around Halloween time. They did the same thing to me. Took DL# and name. I thought it was kinda funny. I've never heard of that for bullets before.
I forgot about this thread... I wont be going back to dunhams anymore after I went in and was asked the same fricken thing again.... I showed him my DL this time in my wallet window thing still... he looked at it and started to write it down again. I asked wtf are you doing? "well, I have to write the information down. It sucks, but you should contact your state representative about it. They make the laws and I just follow em... " I told him to shove that "somewhere" and I left.
Thats ok, I can get .32 wwb at walmart anyway. I will eventually reload it, but for now walmart.
Sounds like this clerk is either contemplating visiting the house and looking for more weapons or he's bird dogging it for someone else. The store management needs to take action on this. No telling how many other shooters have had this information taken down.
