I would suggest you always support your favorite shops with the policies that best suit your needs as a customer.

We have a winner. Thanks.

Old hat, this happens every time there is a shortage. The only places that don't are raping people with 1.05 9mm and 1.50 .223 ammo. I don't like it, but I understand why. A gun with no ammo is like a car with no gas. Pretty to look at but useless for its intended purpose.

I do not have a problem with the policy. The guy has to make a living and I’m guessing selling ammo alone is not paying the rent. He needs to sell guns and that’s easier when he can also sell ammo with the gun.

He’s holding back the better ammo for the folks that buy a rifle.

Chances are, folks that are buying rifles from him are regular customers, and he wants to take care of them. He is less concerned about folks that are hopping from shop to shop to buy ammo.....the type of customer he may never see again.

Ammo that has a proven track record for dependable accuracy. When he sells a rifle, he would rather not put up with the headache of having a customer coming back saying “it don’t shoot”. So, offer the good ammo with rifle sales and keep those folks happy.

Well stated and valid point. Thx Shep, hope you and yours are doing well.

That’s the way all ranges are being. Trigger Time in FB. Bullseye in L’ville. All for range only or with a gun purchase.
