Ammo is like fuel. The only time you have too much is when you are on fire.

I still have a small amount of .380 on hand, although it’s been years since I owned a .380 pistol.

I don't have enough. And 5,000 is nowhere near enough.

I selected 2000-5000, but that is per caliber, not total and it would not include shotgun 12ga , as that number is a bit small at 700 rounds today.

I'm like Rotor in that I also have a bunch for a caliber I don't have a gun for yet. I started buying 9mm a few years ago thinking that I might eventually dip a toe in that pond. I haven't yet, but who knows?

Do we let folks across the border with less than 100 rounds? Might as well get rid of that option. :biggrinjester:

And like EMarquez, I have 2-5k or more of a couple calibers. Remember the saying regarding guns? If you know how many you have you don't have enough.

I would bet there could easily be a 10k or even 20k+ category for this poll.

I was given a box of 380 even though I don't own a 380. I happened to be in a gun store a few weeks later and remembered I still had it in the truck. I gave it to the owner to give to someone who needed it. It just so happened a lady was taking her ltc test that night and would appreciate saving some money. Win all the way around!
