How Much Ammo Do You Have?

Should I buy 100 rounds, 1,000 rounds or is 50 enough? Those new to the world of firearms, and even experienced shooters, will have myriad questions, but the one that always seems to pop up is, “How much ammo do I need?” or “How much do you have?”

These looming questions are ones about which you’ll receive a multitude of responses, but in the end is there really a correct answer? Yes, so read on.

Much like a car operates on a gas, a weapon is of no use if you don’t have enough ammo to feed it. There’s a saying that goes, “You’re either experiencing a problem, just leaving a problem or heading towards a problem,” and just as that quote states, the same can be said of ammunition. With increasing scares about ammo shortage (whether manmade or true), stiffer legislation or in the event of a SHTF situation, having enough ammo is always a concern. That said, we’ll breakdown a few reasons why you should stock up and finally put an end to this contentious question.
