    Ever buy a gun because "I have some of that ammo"

    I almost bought a gun today because I remembered I have about 50rds of .25acp that was in my grand dads stuff. No gun just the ammo.I had convinced myself that was a logical reason to move this purchase to the top of my buy list just because a had a few rounds.I wasn't a great price.I kinda verbalized my reason and the seller gave a strange look like"Ok whatever" and that was enough to bring me back to my senses. Has his happened to anyone else or am I just the weird one.

      I will eventually. I got a box of .22TCM in one of my shipments so I am waiting for a RIA 1911 9mm/22TCM to come in stock.

        Of course!
        You will never, in your life, have a chance like this again.
        If I were you, I would not pass this up. I would not let this go by...this is rare.

          Is there a better reason to buy a gun?

                    Throughout the panic, I could always get .40 s&w so I bought a few more guns in that caliber.

                    I've also bought someones gun cause it came with ammo I wanted. It still sits in my safe without a single range trip lol

                      nope. But the 2 rounds of .223 that I have is making me think about buying an AR

                        I don't shoot .40 S&W but the thought has crossed my mind after seeing it consistently at now/throughout the panic when I has having a hard time sourcing decent priced 9mm/.45ACP.

                        Same with the dirt cheap 5.45 compared to 5.56 prices although all the FUD surrounding it has causes a panic.

                          I guess the saying is true"When you question your sanity just surround yourself with insane people.

                            No, but I'm kind of on the lookout for a S&W 4506 only because I've got two magazines lying around.

                              I wouldn't for that reason alone. If I wanted a new handgun and was in the market, that might be a reason to pick this rather than another gun.

                              I think .25 acp is a blast, btw. Baby Browning and their clones re great little vest guns.
