Where To Find Frontsight Ammo

By Ina Hunt


Guns and ammunition can be hard to find especially in large numbers. High quality weapons and accessories are considered valuable assets to many people. They collect them for show as well as for their functional uses. Large quantities of ammunition are collected by persons who enjoy hunting, range shootings, competition and training camps offered by private enterprises. Frontsight ammo is a very valuable resource for these individuals.

When prices for guns and ammunition began rising because of supply and demand issues Russel May opened a company designed to help keep the prices of these items at reasonable levels. One of the ways he accomplished this was to purchase in large quantities from the manufacturers. He was then able to sell them to his customers at a reduced price. Another method commonly used by retailers is to enter into agreements with manufacturers regarding the number of items planned to be purchased on a regular basis.

This company also offers training courses for gun enthusiasts who want to learn how to use their weapon properly and with the highest level of safety. The participants are required to bring all of the ammunition they will need for the course when they arrive at the training facility. The number of rounds needed is dependent on what type of weapon you are using and the number of rounds can range anywhere from one hundred rounds for a handgun to sixteen hundred rounds for semi-automatic rifles.

There are very stringent rules regarding the type of ammunition that can be used during the courses. The first and most important rule is there can be no reloaded bullets. Even bullets that have been reloaded in a factory are not allowed. These bullets can be very dangerous to the user because of variations in powder content, case fatigue from prior use or incorrect case sizing. Any of these can cause catastrophic firearm failure where the gun blows up and injures the user.

They also do not allow steel jacketed rounds to be used in rifles. The ammunition that is acceptable must be metal jacketed. Lead bullets without a jacket will not be allowed but lead rounds with full jackets are perfectly acceptable. As an extra measure clients are encouraged to test their ammunition with a magnet to assure the absence of steel jackets.

You can purchase your ammunition anywhere and most of the best known name brands are usable on the course. Remington and Winchester are just two examples of acceptable rounds. Purchasing the ammunition prior to arrival can create a problem for some attendees. Transportation to the site and storage of the ammunition until actual arrival can create issues because of the excessive weight that can be involved.

Having the ammunition shipped to the training site is not possible because of space and safety issues. They will accept delivery and store your ammunition if you have purchased it from the Front Sight Pro shop. Another solution would be to ship it to the hotel you have reserved and ask them to hold it in your name until you arrive.

The goal of Front Sight Firearms has always been to supply affordable weapons, accessories and ammunition to their customers. The programs they offer and the products they have for clients bring them closer to this goal as time passes.
