I'll buy ammo wherever it's cheapest. I am so sick of getting screwed at gunstores. So they specialize in guns. SO WHAT!? Does that give them a license to steal? Gun stores have gotten worse and worse over the last decade or so. As more gunowners become paranoid, more store owners take advantage of that. The raise in FFL fees also did wonders for their business by killing off the competition.
I refuse to take it in the rear. I buy from whoever is cheapest. that goes for everything, guns, ammo, whatever. I do buy most guns from gunstores, but I call every store within a days travel to find a realistic price. I'm lucky to have one store nearby that is very fair pricing guns, and I STILL call around.
It's a free market. If the gunstores don't realize that soon, they will die. Tough. Maybe the next owner will learn. A dealer here was just liquidated last weekend. At least there were some good deals at the auction!
Sorry for the rant, I'll quit now. Dealer gouging is one of my pet peeves. I'll just go down to K-mart and buy some cheap ammo to cheer myself up.
