I just picked up 16 pounds of HS6 for all my handguns. 41 bucks a pound when shipping and hazmat was included. That is about 11 dollars a pound higher than I could have got it pre- COVID. I should be set for a year or two of handgun shooting now.

I remember when 50 round boxes of thunderbolts and wildcats were $1.50/box at tractor supply.


That's right $0.03 a round.

When I was a kid 15-16 I was going to buy this gun for $250 at a gun show with my dad. Had all the Nazi markings. I just hated to know it killed Jews and couldn’t force myself to buy it.

Also last year I could have bought a beneli M4 for $700 and passed on it.

As a kid, I was getting boxes of .22 shorts for a penny a round from my uncle's sporting goods store and they threw in a free box if I bought four for two bucks. 250 rounds for two bucks lasted a little while in a single shot .22. We had our own berm in the backyard and an indoor target trap in the basement.

I remember walking 4 miles to the general store as a kid. I would pick up cans and bottles along the way and be able to get a coke or candy bar and a box of 22LR when I got there. The ammo was usually priced below 90 cents which equated to 18 cans or 9 bottles.

There used to be a gun store on Long Island called Burns Bros in the 90s; i used to have a field day in there 22-250 8.99 a box, they had broken open boxes real cheap and always great low low ammo prices. They had a long double sided row of ammo set up on long bins/tables. I also "stole" a Desert Eagle in 357 mag from them for 500.00 lightly used; still have it.

I remember when Saiga’s were $279.00 in the 1990’s and came in all flavors of 12 gauge, 223, 308, 5.45, even 30-06. I should have bought 10 of them back them.
