We were getting ready this last fall to head out hunting, and I started asking my hunting buddies about their gear. A few of them have the same hunting rifles they have used for years. A few friends like to change it up as they are in search of the best firearm for each situation.
As we talked, it became clear that despite having an older rifle or a brand new one, the one thing that everyone can’t get enough of is new firearm parts. The ones with older rifles had no problem maintaining their guns, but enjoyed trying out new scopes, grips, cases, and more. Some even opt to change out the trigger assemblies and firing pins on their own to keep their guns performing their best.
Now, depending on where you live and what you are hunting for, the hunting season will always be different and require different gear. We are fortunate to have immediate access to online shops like R&B Arms where we can just buy the latest 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 ammunition. Supply chain issues, local policy changes, and consumers buying up as much as they can has led to some calibers being nearly impossible to find, and limits on what you can buy if you do find the right caliber.
In preparation for the upcoming hunting season, I’m telling my friends to buy a box or two at a time whenever they can to ensure we all have what we need. Because, if we don’t have ammunition, we can’t go hunting at all, even with the best gear.
Maybe this year we’ll get lucky and some of the issues we’ve encountered over the last times we went hunting will be resolved and everyone can buy what they need without limits. We’re always prepared for what’s ahead, but some of our friends have been stuck without ammo in the past. I mentioned R&B Arms USA, 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 their ammo list.
I hope you and your friends 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!
