Bullet vending machines? Just in case you find yourself running low on bullets while out and about in the city? "Damn it. They're out of Snickers bars so I guess I'll just settle for some 9mm."
'murica, fuck yeah!
For when you run out of 5.56 before third period biology
Your going to have to disect the lab rat live, fresh from the dumpster.
TBH shooting a rat with 5.56x45 would leave you with more cleaning up than dissectable rat.
An entire country of fucking cowards 😂
Hey hey hey, half cowards.
The world would be better off if certain people ate a bullet. But those people usually are not in the vending machine target demographic.
Same reason as any other vending machine, impulse buys.
Ammo should never be an impulse buy, and I say this as a strong proponent of the 2A.
"Well hell, I should try something different in that gun that doesn't work quite right. Wonder if this works better?"
There. Impulse buy.
Want or need?
Always the question.
The morning riot used 2 more mags than usual.
