i wonder how it would do in the GSG? looks like fun

mtlcafan79 · Nov 13, 2008

I've shot some before. I can only imagine the GSG would be a blast.

Too bad you can't use it at Continental. Bet THAT would be neat!

i'm thinking FROSTBITE SHOOT :innocent0

Put a fun new twist on plinking and target shooting with tracer ammunition. This non-corrosive, high-velocity .22 Long Rifle ammunition produces a bright-red tracer trail of approximately 150 yards. Since the trail is visible day or night, it provides a clear view of the bullet's trajectory, flight path and impact point. It also makes great practice ammo as it allows you to track the exact path of the bullet, helping you to understand its dynamics. This quality ammunition will not damage your firearm. This ammunition will not function in handguns, it is designed for rifles only. Made in USA.
With every 250-round purchase, you'll receive a NEW Dry-Storage box, a $14.99 value. These rugged polymer Dry-Storage Boxes are lockable and have a heavy-duty latch. Olive Drab color. Measures 14"L x 11-1/2"H x 8"W.
Available:

250 Rounds - 1 Dry Box $109.99
500 Rounds - 2 Dry Boxes $199.99

i think that's their computer asking that when someone buys ammo not that the clerk was that uninformed...although he/she could be i feel like giving them the benefit of the doubt from having so many jobs in retail

I bought .22 rounds for my rifle and they asked if it was for a handgun.

It shouldn't make much of a difference in function between the actions of pistol and rifle semi-autos, but would make a difference in lighting the tracing pellet. The chemical compounds in tracers takes a lot of heat and pressure to light, and a little time to burn through the protective coating, a pistol's short barrel might not keep the heat long enough to burn through the coating, and reliably light the tracer, it can also delay the lighting until the bullet is downrange, or even after it hits the target, instead of lighting in the barrel, and tracing the entire path. It also happens with M856 in AR pistols that would normally light reliably in longer barrels.

.22lr is not just for rifles, I use it in my ruger MKIII handgun. They are required to ask what the ammo is for. If it's for a handgun you must be 21 to buy it, 18 for a rifle even though it's the exact same ammo. At least that's what the sales clerk told me.

Pretty much any "rifle" sized cartridge that is 1.5" or less (to fit in a pistol magazine) has some sort of pistol designed for it.

And what about those really short chopped rifles with no stocks, that we like to call "AK pistols" etc.?

So technically they can ID for 7.62x39mm and .223 since there are "pistols" that fire those. Why not just ID for everything and stop nit-picking.

Again, this is one of those silly things the gun grabbers like to start. Guns are guns and bullets are bullets. It should be all or none, take it or leave it, YMMV, IMHO, colon - parenthesis.... etc. etc.

TOWcritter · Nov 14, 2008

There were no problems with the transaction at all. It was just a weird question to hear.
I bought 2 bricks of Fed .22 and a box of 30-30. So when he asked I was like...huh? It just caught me off guard, that's all.

smokey · Nov 14, 2008

i can see that being fun with this....

alucard0822 · Nov 14, 2008

but this is company policy, not the law... am I right?

Next time a Wal-Mart worker drone asks you if they're for a handgun, say "no, they're for a flintlock."

God, I love teasing those poor dolts.
