There’s a new online shop to buy ammo in bulk that all gun owners should know about.  This new site, bulkammo.com, does have plenty of ammo in stock at modest prices.  One example is 1,000 rounds of Aguila .380 FMJ ammo for $295.  Despite how expensive .380 ammo is, that comes out to only $14.75 a box of 50.  Upon a quick glance, they seem to have a wide variety of ammo in all calibers that are actually in stock and ready to ship.  The question remains as to how expensive their shipping rates are.

Saint Louis, MO – -(Ammoland.com)- As of this week, there is a new kid on the block whose specialty is bulk ammo.

BulkAmmo.com is a new online retail site that specializes in bulk ammunition for serious shooters.

The onsite navigation is designed for people looking to buy in large volume: especially law enforcement, military personnel, and other shooters who go through a lot of rounds.

So you just bought that pocket .380 and are now looking for a good way to carry it.  Upon researching, you’ll find there are plenty of options.  Most like generic holsters while others prefer a custom option.  While I personally prefer generic options, the difference between both is actually justifiable and makes the decision that much harder.  There are a few options out there that are worth a second look and one of these is from Woolfe Gun Leather.

While a pocket holster is the way to go with most 380 pistols, there are exceptions and one of them is the popular Sig P238 (reviewed here).  This is a heavier single action pistol that would be best carried in an IWB or a OWB holster such as the one featured in the review article.  Thanks to Woolfe Gun Leather, they provided a custom IWB holster for review.  Let’s have a thorough look at their Wolf Bite for the Sig Sauer P238.

Scattered around the YachtPals.com site, we’ve had a few lively discussions regarding bringing firearms aboard vs. other defensive weapons vs. nothing at all.  One of the most interesting aspects of the “debate” is that there doesn’t seem to be as hard a line drawn between boaters as there is between landlubbers.  Though there are certainly some extremists on both ends of the gun spectrum, most people understand both why and why not to have a gun aboard, thus providing further proof that boaters are generally more reasonable and intelligent than lesser primates.  So intelligent in fact that we thought we should bring up a few points from our readers for further contemplation and discussion.

Manassas, VA --(Ammoland.com)- We are now just a couple of months from the midterm elections and the political gamesmanship has begun to heat up.

It was former Wyoming Senator Alan Simpson (a Republican) who declared that in America we have the Evil Party, and the Stupid Party, adding that he belonged to the Stupid Party.

For those committed to restoring and protecting the rights of gun owners, the labels are broadly accurate. While there absolutely are Democrats who are personally committed to individual rights, the Democrat Party itself is not only opposed to gun rights, they lie about it. There are two basic policy positions for Democrats on guns and they both start with politicians declaring, “I strongly support the Second Amendment.”

It’s time for another ConcealThis Poll.  Those that carry handguns for protection know that you should always have fresh defense ammo at all times and most like to cycle through and swap them out from time to time.  The question is…how often do you swap old ammo?  Some like to do this every three to six months and others are not so concerned.  However, based on all the elements that can take a toll on your carry ammo such as heat, sweat and lubricants, it is always best to routinely cycle through them.

As an example, to your left above is a Federal 9mm LEO HST round that has been carried for 6 months next to a fresh round to your right.  Which one will you carry?

Southport, CT –-(Ammoland.com)- Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc. (NYSE:RGR) is proud to announce that a Ruger handgun has been named the Shooting Industry Academy of Excellence “Handgun of the Year” for the third straight year.

The Ruger SR9c, the first line extension in the SR9 striker-fired pistol, is the compact version of one of the slimmest and most ergonomic 9mm pistols on the market today.

“Ruger is honored to receive this award for the third year in a row,” said Ruger President and CEO Mike Fifer. “We are gratified that Ruger’s innovation and excellence in product design has once again been recognized by members of the firearms community.”
