I sold a couple of boxes of .380 ammo yesterday. Winchester,
Silvertip, hollowpoints, 50 rounds in each box, factory fresh, old reserves. I
got $10 a box for them and gave the guy about 50 to 75 rounds of loose .40
S&W ammo, also factory fresh, old reserves, for free. I was happy with the
transaction. How did I do? Do you think I qualify as a good businessman?
I imagine if I was in the ammo
selling business, I would be going broke soon. Truth be told, I almost hated
having to sell it to him. The "him" in question was a good friend of
mine. Still though, I find I cannot just keep giving away ammo as I have done
in the past, even if the people I have given it to have been friends. Well, at
least not give it all away for free, after all I did give him a good amount of
the .40 cal stuff for free. The twenty bucks I did get will go to a good cause.
I will buy a box of .45 Auto with it. Now, if I was a businessman, I would have
gotten at least $25 to $30 apiece for each box of the .380 ammo and then bought
at least three to four boxes of .45 ACP with the proceeds. Oh well…
All the best,
Glenn B
