Huh... well, I think it's rather something I wouldn't like my own workers to be doing at work, but rather on their own time. Discussing it at work doesn't bother me, but the actual transaction needs to be done outside of an office with other employees who don't shoot, period. In that aspect, I'd be uncomfortable too, and I target shoot.

Honestly, right now there's such a lack of ammo out there for several gun types, that we're all splitting it between people as we're able to get it.

People now have to scout for boxes all the time, and the shops around here are limiting it to one box a customer... if they have it. First come first serve, no holds. So if we walk in and are lucky to get some, we sell off a handful to friends so they can use some too, or trade it for other ammo that we use. :)

Ohhh, so thats why they're doing it. My friend in my office here bought a huge box full of bullets for some type of gun and he's been selling it from his desk to all the older gun nuts in our office. It was really freaking me out.

Yeah - there's a nationwide ammo shortage for many reasons. I'm going to guess that he probably found some .45 ammo somewhere or managed to get a case in that's been on backorder. That makes the most sense to me, I've not seen a box of it on the shelves here since... I want to say January? I think so.

Aw, I can't blame you. I think it's bad form to sell it from your desk in an office with people who likely don't shoot. Like I said, I target shoot (and I'm a girl, gasp) and I would still find it rather disconcerting. We save that for the privacy of our own home, the range, and friends. I don't even like to carry it in the car without it being locked in the box, haha, and I sure wouldn't be trading it on the street!

you are right about the shortage!! i make my own rifle ammo. not only is it cheaper but it is also better made ^_^ im getting into pistol shooting soon i hope but the way it is looking with ammo i'll have to wait a while for it to pick back up ._. i completely agree with you though . they should sell it out of the office and away from others that don't shoot and are unaware of the shortage.

At least you can rest assured you work in one hardcore office.

huh, maybe. o-o

yeah.... I would be a bit concerned, especially if it's on work-time.

Come visit me. >=C

I forgot you were going to that funeral, and I showed up at your house and Kit answered the door ><

I know so come now

Yep, we've been in an ammo crunch, and this is why, people hoarding (lulz) it up and reselling it at a higher price, due to its' popular demand. Where do you work, and what do they do?

Ammo is very safe today. I've dropped many live rounds without incident. As long as they don't do anything stupid, like slam the primer side (the flat side, opposite the bullet) on a desk, it should be fine! So I wouldn't worry to much, unless they start removing the bullets from the casing (brass cylindrical thing) for the powder......
