I just read where some church in Kentucky

 is offering to pay a dollar a round for ammunition to get it off the street.

This ought to go down as one of the stupidest things I have heard yet as a brick of .22LR contains 500 rounds and runs maybe thirty bucks. Surplus 7.62x39 and 5.56 mm is a lot cheaper than a buck a round especially if you buy it in bulk.

It’s go to the store and then take it to the church time and cash in. Buying ten bricks for about three hundred bucks and turning it in means about a $4700 profit.

I would imagine that the church is thinking that maybe a handful of people with an odd box of 20 is coming. Non shooters really have no clue as to how much ammo a serious shooter can go through in a single afternoon much less a season. One season years ago I ran through over 20,000 rounds of centerfire and God only knows how much .22LR.

That wasn’t a lot by serious shooter standards but it was a LOT by non- shooter or even hunter standards. Hunters for the most part don’t shoot a whole lot.


This ought to be good. I can see someone with 20,000 rounds showing up.
