This last fall as we were preparing to go out hunting, I was chatting with my friends about their equipment. A few of them have the same guns they have used for years. Some of my buddies like to change it up as they are in search of the best firearm for each situation.
While we were chatting I started to realize that even if someone had an older rifle or brand new one, everyone still enjoyed updated firearms parts. The ones with older rifles had no problem maintaining their guns, but preferred to try out new scopes, grips, cases, and more. Some even choose to change out the trigger assemblies and firing pins themselves to keep their rifles performing their best.
Now, depending on where you live and what you are hunting for, the hunting season will always be unique and call for different gear. We are fortunate to have immediate access to online stores like R&B Arms where we can just buy new gun parts, or order some customization for our rifles- either Cerakote or Stippling depending on your preference.
One thing that is incredibly hard to get a hold of just about anywhere though is ammo. Supply chain issues, local policy changes, and people buying up as much as they can has led to some calibers being almost impossible to find, and limits on what you can buy if you do find the right caliber.
As we prepare for next hunting season, I’m telling my friends to start buying a box or two at a time whenever they can to make sure we have enough. Because, if we don’t have ammunition, we can’t go hunting at all, even with the best accessories.
Maybe this year we’ll get lucky and some of the issues we’ve encountered over the last few seasons will be resolved and everyone can get what they need without limitations. Some of my buddies have been out of luck in the past, but we’re always stocked up and ready to go. I mentioned R&B Arms (https://www.rbarmsusa.com/), which is one of my favorite online shops. They just announced their new ammo list and they are helping people find and get the ammo they need by announcing their new shipments. I’m telling everyone I know to go jump on the list on their website at https://www.rbarmsusa.com/.
I hope you and your hunting buddies are prepared for next season! If you’re joining our hunting club, it would be greatI’d love to hear more about the equipment you are using. Here’s to a great season!
