Two boxes of 223.
One box of both 38 special and 44 magnum.

Easton/Naz - umm, well, no 9mm or .40, or .45. I think they had something, I forget.

But if you do insist on getting a .40 S&W, make it a Browning.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but can't you swap top ends on a .40 S&W Hi Power and make it a 9mm? I remember reading something about using the .40 frame for shooting +P loads through the 9mm.

If you can do that, you have a 2 caliber gun.

Funny, I was just wondering the same thing about Hi Powers. With Glocks you can swap either barrels or whole uppers with certain ones. For a single example a G23 (.40) or G32 (.357 sig) can swap barrels and mags, and you can get aftermarket 9mm barrels for both which then only requires a G19 magazine. That was one of the reasons I went with the G23.


and just to stay on topic Wal Mart in Lebanon is bare as usual.

Nothing when I have been there.

WalMart in Robinson (by the airport) just got a shipment of handgun ammo. Friday AM as of Friday afternoon. as always limit 6 per person per day.

Federal 9mm (about 200 boxes) minus 4 boxes $8.97 per box
Federal 45 Auto (about 200 boxes) don't know price
Blazer Brass 40 S&W (about 40 boxes) minus 2 boxes $12.?? per box

all 50 round boxes (not bulk boxes)


they have more in the back room. the ammo case is broken at the store. the ammo is where the binoculars are in the glass case next to the register.

anyone see .380, .38 special, or .44 magnum in the philadelphia region? heck, i'll even go to the people's republic of new jersey to buy ammo or to lancaster. i need some to introduce my new gf and her sister to shooting next month when i go to tennesee... maybe ammo is more prevelant there or somewhere in west virginia or kentucky.

I'm usually not looking for those calibers, but I was at the Palmyra Walmart (isn't too far from lancaster) today and I'm almost positive they had a bunch of .38 Special. Might be worth it to call them if you're willing to travel. I was attempting to buy ammo, but there was a line 10 deep to get licenses.
