Buy guns that you can abuse with any ammo.

Should have gotten the AK instead of the AR

You can shoot steel bullets in an AK but it's not recommended for an AR. Plus there's no shortage like with the .223 rounds.

.223 isnt nearly as hard to find these days.

I've also put 100 rounds of steel ammo through mine with no issue. I've heard the issue with steel ammo occurs when you are volume shooting and putting 1000 rounds through in a short time frame.
I will admit that I have been looking for an AK74 though.

Bought 100 rds of 9mm, a few years back. I've shot 1/3 of it, with zero problems.

One of my co-workers buys it when available.

I've shot some of his 9mm and it works fine in a Beretta PX4 Storm. He has bought 9mm and .223 and has had no issues with it. I've talked to several people in the last few months that have had only good to say about the Canned Heat ammo.

I like to check around as much as possible before dropping that much dough on ammo.

I got 5, 50 round boxes at Gander the other day, and office mates report getting a 'brick' at local dealers.
If I need bricks, I usually go to Lowe's or HD, they never run short, but I almost never need bricks.

They overnighted new ammo for the stuff that had misfires and didnt charge a thing.

I lack the required inferiority complex needed to be a gun expert.

I find the white male persecution complex of gun owners amusing.

I ordered and received 1000rds of 9mm. Only one had a nick in the brass. I've shot about 2/3 of the can with no problems.
