I went into one of our local gunshops today and while i was browsing their severely limited selection of ammo i came across a box of pmc elderado starfire in .45 acp
"Whoohoo!" i say to myself this stuff was a companion of mine way back when i first started to carry and its priced right too, 9$ a box, nuts only one box left better grab it. as i pick up the box i notice that its a little light for a box of .45 so i pop it open.
"WTH, brass!?" IIRC this stuff used to be nickle plated (slides ammo out more) there are rounds missing? (slides ammo out of box all the way)
WAIT a sec, this stuffs FMJ and Starfire, THIS IS A MIXED BOX!!!!!
At this i was slightly anoyed so i take the box to the guy at the counter and ask what they think they are trying to pull. He looks at it and is as miffed as i but promptly says "five bucks you can have it"
I bought the box of ammo because im a sucker for a deal, the rounds all look good, its half pmc and half magtech ball ammo. I'm not sure ill shoot it but i figured id be doing the world a service by getting it off the shelf. Problem is that when i got home i got to thinking about the legality of that practice. how do people know they arent slipping boxes of reloads out the door or that the employees arent trading old ammo for new stuff and then selling it at new ammo prices? im considering reporting this, what do you guys think? who do i report it to?
