    Yes you can buy it online. I usually start my search here and shop for the best deal.

      Double check local law. IIRC, there is a city (possibly the city of sacto) that bars shipping of ammo to residences in that city.

      And yes gun bot is good. So is ammospy, ammoseek, sgammo, ammoman, and targetsportsusa.

      Good luck!

        I live near Sacto also & pick up my xd40 on the 15th.

        If you want to shop locally, there are several places that have been recommended to me
        https://ammodepotstores.com/ - this is the place mentioned the most
        River City Gun Range in Elk Grove offers indoor shooting, rentals, training, and gun store, backed by River City Gun Exchange, serving Sacramento.

        I just heard walmart has a huge stock right now

            Welcome Harley....

            Consider Underwoodammo.com and the top rated ammo they ship.

            9MM extreme defender is a great choice.

                  Can't ship ammo to Sacramento city limits.
                  Can ship to surrounding areas, such as RioLinda, FairOaks, Elverta, anything that does not have a address in the Sacto. city limits.
                  Also if you buy ammo in person from a store that is in the city limits, they will take a copy of your driver license and have you sign a log book of sorts.

                    Welcome!

                    Off topic, but I've found that running my Shield with some grip tape is a worthwhile upgrade.

                    I've tried a couple, Talon Grips and Traction grips, with good results from both. The Talon's were $18 shipped, the Traction's were $7 shipped
                    (via the shooter's mindset discount code on youtube).

                    Question: "Are the Talon's worth 157% more money"?
                    Answer: Not to me, but other's swear by Talon. So, as always, YMMV.

                    Of course, you can also get a roll of skateboard tape for even less and roll your own.

                    Traction grips:

                          124-grain and 147-grain HST is very popular. Sign up for SG Ammo's "notify me" feature for when they get another shipment.

                          Bone Frog has 147-grain HST in stock: https://www.bonefroggunclub.com/coll...p-50rds-p9hst2

                              The 124-grain is "backorderable" at Cabela's, and if you order by the 17th, you can get free shipping (Code: 5JOLLY). The problem is that it's a lot more expensive since it comes in the fancy plastic boxes of 20 instead of the LE-style cardboard boxes of 50 that SG Ammo and Bone Frog GC sell.
