Pay it forward...

Postby PHATSPEED7x on Sat Mar 21, 2020 2:05 pm

I was at my local gun dealer today getting a gun out of layaway. There was a young lady who was taking delivery of a brand new Springfield hellcat 9mm. She was pretty excited to be getting the new pistol. She has her carry permit, and had only a 22lr before. Well we happened to be walking out at the same time and the gun sales man made the comment "I'll give you a call as soon as we get some 9mm ammo in stock" I thought to myself well this gun isn't gonna do her any good without ammo. I walked up to her in the parking lot and said "you don't have any 9mm for your new gun do you?" She explained they were sold out from people panic buying all this week. I took my spare mag out of it's holder on my belt and unloaded 13 rounds of Hornady critical defense and gave them to her. I said it's not alot but it's a start. She was pretty surprised and happy someone would do that for her.

Stay safe out there people.

Sweet. Should have got her information as I would have loaded 100 rounds for her.

I decline to answer this question. I told my gf what I did today and she was less than impressed of my act of kindness.

Found I have 2 copies of “Top Grade Ammo” by the late great Glen Zediker. If you are a reloader or want to start, you can have my extra copy. First P.M.gets it. Meet near me. I’m in E. Bloomington.
