quick question on ordering ammo
I have for decades had zero issues, having occasionally ordered..ordered a case or two of various types of ammo,
like 223 rem, 7.62/39 and 10 ga & 12 ga in various types,
as it's generally cheaper than the price of some reloading components in total in some calibers.
I'd rather order from the local gun shops but their prices are absurdly marked up
I never had issues until yesterday when the vendor demanded I send a clear photo of my drivers licence , both front and back.
I told them to cancel the order as that was never going to happen,
I asked why they wanted the pictures and they stated they wanted to be sure I was 21 or older,
I said ask my credit card company I've had the account for 60 years, ask my bank I've had that account for over 60 years
have any of you had to deal with that CRAP!
btw shop carefully, it's not uncommon to a box of 20 rifle cartridges cost, lets say $39-$79 at a local gun shop,
but in case quantities' (500-800-or 1000 cartridge lots) sell for less than half that price per cartridge,
, especially in common military caliber lots
