danw77 13 Posted September 2, 2015 What's going on with this ammo? I admit it's been a while since I purchased, but why is it so hard to find these days? Is the surplus starting to dry up? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

danw77 13 Posted September 2, 2015 Sorry, I meant the spam cans at a decent price. They used to be $100, now they're almost $200. Most places are out of stock and have been for the past month or so. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pizza Bob 1,488 Posted September 7, 2015 If you want to buy in person, I was at Surplus City in Trevose, PA on Friday and I noticed that they had some spam cans of it as I went out the door. Didn't take note of the price, and they didn't have much out, so I'd call before I took the trip. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Surplus-City-Guns/10150121877510510 Adios, Pizza Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeerSlayer 241 Posted September 8, 2015 You also have to look at what your buying. There's some spam cans that cost more than others. Some is match grade, and some is the really cheap surplus stuff. Sportsmen’s guide is about the cheapest I've found other than OG Farmer. He was selling a few cans for the same price as Sportsmen’s guide. Probably gone by now.
