You were still getting raped in the 60s and 70's.



I wouldn't think a poor farmer who uses old toilets for lawn decorations could afford ammo by the case. You ain't gonna be buyin' any .22LR from PSA today but things are much better now than they were in the '70's.

And you dumb ass was still overpaying in the 90's.
The trouble with you mouthy young punks is you don't know WTF you're talking about most of the time. The rest of the time you're lying about something.

And I remember when the hardware store clerks would break a box for us kids. Many a time I made 35 or 40 cent purchases so we could get out to plink wood chucks. One did not build up much of a bankroll when the weekly allowance for chores was a quarter.

Knew a security guard who worked at Remington in Bridgeport. He somehow had ammo. Lordship was a skeet and trap range owned by Remington in Stratford (before it closed due to lead in Long Island Sound). You could use a brand new 1100 or 870 skeet or trap guns for free just leave your drivers license. I shot the hell out of a 28 gauge 1100 and just payed a couple bucks for birds. It was different shooting over water, the gunshots sounded different with nothing to absorb the sound. Had a lot of fun there.

I was buying flats of 5000 rounds for about $135 bucks per flat 10 or so years ago...... I still have a couple of flats left. Not great ammo - Wildcats or CCI stuff, but it still shoots 1/4 in groups in my Volquartsen... not really picky about ammo.

Best store EVER. And None of that cheap ass China schitt like Walmart.



I was a kid when Gibsons started going away.

I bought my first knife there. Back when Old timer had the big counter top displays.

Anything for fishing a kid would need.

Last one i remember was the one in Irving TX. Last time i was out there in was a Mex grocery.

When my grandmother passed, she lived in Irving , all the grandkids picked out what they wanted. I got my grandfathers tackle box. He passed in ‘90. Had a bunch of lures and packs of hooks with the Gibsons price stickers on them.

unny thing is I remember

The funny thing is I clearly remember buying lots of bricks of PMC Zapper .22's for 10.95 a brick in the 90's at a LGS and Wildcats were the same price. Bought lots of 525 rd. cartons of Federal's bulk pack stuff for 8.97 at Wal-Mart in the 90's to shoot up with my boys on the weekends too. I'm sure your LGS was under selling Wal-Mart at the time with those 5.00 a brick Wildcats. Yeah right. Funny I don't recall the prices of ammo going down between the '70's and 90's and neither does anybody else. I sure do remember the quality of cheap .22 ammo going to shyt with plenty of squibs and FTF's included in every box in that time frame though. Goes back to what I said about you young punks not knowing WTF you're taking about most of the time and lying the rest.

Young punk?

You're a fugging tweener!

Too old to be young and too young to be old.

You probably wear your parachute pants to the SS office.


Fugging Walmart?

There was no Walmart. I dont care what Walmart was selling 22 Zingers for.

Rural New York........hahaha!


Penny Wildcats in the 90's. As sure as you are a "country boy"....


Ask the Mexican at the gas station for some Ethyl Supreme next time you are in town.....

No Wal-Mart's ? I told you Montana was a bass ackwards shyt hole. Still no indoor plumbing judging by the location of your commode either I see. Oh and BTW. I spent a month in Montana in 1993. Stopped at gun shops in Polson, Billings and Missoula and as I recall the prices on guns and ammo were pretty comparable to gun shops here. Go try to bullshyt somebody else boy.

Wildcats were never a penny in the 90's boy. I do have a box full of awards/medals/trophies in the closet. They have nothing to do with the price of ammuntion though so don't know why you're fixated. Montana is kinda nice in some ways and places. Other places suck. Too much flat land in the East and not enough forest. What forest you do have is bereft of hardwood species so your fall foliage situation is kinda drab too.

You just can't pull off the lies with somebody that was actually alive and buying ammo in the 90's boy. Particularly one that was actually in several Montana gun shops at the time. Perhaps you purchased some at a good sale for that price but doubt it.
