    My Gun Buying Adventure

    So my girl decides to buy me a new gun

    Anyways. I decided that all I wanted was just another lower to then build upon before the year was over. Considering that I do not like to do FFL transfers, I decided to check out some of the stores around me.. which were..

    1.Ammo Bros
    2.Ade's
    4.Union War Surpuls

    ....I decide to call Union War Surpuls in San Pedro to see what they offer and on the first call, I get put on hold. Then they hung up. hmmm...I call again and I asked if they sell OL AR lowers and she again put me on hold, then came back with a response of NO!

    Hey UCLAplinker, you might want to scratch them off your list on the google map.

    I then decide to call Ade's and they had some lowers. I then made the decision to drive over to their establishment after work with my girl, but for some reason, they were closed.

    My girl decides that it would be better to check out her favorite store Ammo Bros, and because my Sis lives in cerritos so when can visit her on the way home.

    Upon walking in Ammo Bros., I was surprised at how much they've grown over the years. The place was packed and busy and when the dust settled, after looking at all the eyecandy, I quickly forgot about the lower I wanted and the next thing I knew...I'm filling out paperwork for the so-called it gun to have of 2008.

    Yes guys, my girl paid a premium for it when others around the LAC have it for around 100 dollars less. Sorry, but I cannot justify spending that kind of money myself on something that spits out .22lr

    GSG-5 yall!! I can't wait!!!!

        I seriously can't wait to shoot this thing. I've also heard from countless GSG owners that it's surprisingly accurate out of the box.

              They certainly did. I felt like a little kid walking into a toystore. You know, 'those tingly feelings'.

              So much damn things I want. Will probably get one of their Sks's once the GSG comes home.

                I was just inside of Ammo Bros last week for the very first time to do a PPT. Well staffed, friendly people, great hours, and a HUGE selection of goodies. Plus they had some mil-surps.

                  I'd MUCH rather do business for various reasons with Ammo Bros than Ades. Glad you rediscovered them.
