We received a special lot of this military load ammo. Recommended for Law Enforcement or military use only. This is the last time this will ever be available.
Lake City 5.56 Ammo is the best 5.56 Military ammo manufactured.

Probably the best 5.56 ammo for combat ever produced in the USA. So scarce in the commercial market we have not sold any in 15 years. Simply put, this is some of the best ammo on the surplus ammo market today at a a great price. Reloadable.

What a country! Like the comment said, where else can you get FedEx to leave a 1000 rnds on your front porch. I finally bought some after the the local PD hassled the gun show outta business.
IN AUSTIN TEXAS TOO!!!
Got it winthin 24 hours!! God Bless America!
Austin PD rcently busted a jackass for threthening kids (who were ringing his doorbell and running) with an AR (a very stupid move I might add) but later news announced he was in poessession of "illegal ammo", armor piercing ammo. Is this stuff legal > In certain states > Is there a difference in what is called a penetrator and say and armor piercing bulet?
Sighned, Duh
Great Quality Ammo

I have gotten several cases of this, it is extremely accurate and definately a hot load. NATO headstamps & Milspec all the way. A few rounds were dented, but thats the way the cartridge rolls when bulk packed.
Potent

I bought 1k rounds of this a few months ago and have had some time to test it out now. Its super accurate, and exactly what the title says, it WILL penetrate some heavy duty stuff. Straight through large tree trunks and it will shred a good size granite rock (was bored at the river with nothing better to do). As for using it for pig hunting, it blows a straight line through a boars skull and the thick shoulder bones dont slow it down. Overall its WONDERFUL ammo and for a better price than anything store bought.
good stuff

This is great stuff. for those weary of shooting steel with this stuff, it will completely penetrate 3/8in standard steel. it will not go through 1/2in ,it will leave a big dimple on the other side. repeated fire in the same local will go through though. no problems feeding, great ammo.BTW will not penetrate 1/4in armor plate.
solid ammo

This is everything they say it is. It isn't pretty, but why pay $200 extra for nifty little boxes? Every few hand fulls I find a slightly dinged one but still ok to use.
And seriously... is there anything better than getting 28.5 pounds of ammo left on your front porch by UPS?
Excellent Quality

Hot Loads, Good Times! I bought this stuff when it was $1100 a case. Now I see it is cheaper here and elsewhere.
Great opportunity

Just bought 1k rounds of this. Its not often we are able to buy actual military ammo, so jump on it while you can. Looking forward to seeing the real penetration of this vs a wild hog.
Excellent Ammo

I have several cases of this stuff for the day when it all goes down.
This is the best ammo for an AR-15 or anything that wil handle the 5.56mm NATO round.
Buy all of this you can while it is available.
DO NOT BUY THIS AND ATTEMPT TO SHOOT IT IN A WEAPON THAT IS MARKED .223 cal.
Get it!
