...and they wouldn't sell it to me.
Today, I went to Meijer, which, if you don't live in the Midwest, is pretty much like Wally World. Big department store that sells groceries, clothes, electronics, sporting goods, etc. Anyway, I'm 19 years old, sqeaky clean record. I'm at a self-scan machine with a cashier in front, I scan the 7.62x39 ammo for my SKS. The machine tells me to show my ID to the cashier. I do, and all is well. Until I try to scan some of the .22 LR ammo I was trying to buy for my Ruger 10/22. The machine would not complete the transaction because I was under 21! I guess they can only sell me ammunition that is physically impossible to use in a handgun! Needless to say, I am pretty about this. I would consider writing an angry letter to the company, not that it would do any good, because it's likely "company policy" or something. :banghead:
