Extreme Shock’s New .223 30grain AFR Air Freedom Round

Extreme Shock's .223 30grain AFR Air Freedom Round

Extreme Shock Ammunition

CLINTWOOD, VA --(AmmoLand.com)- Extreme Shock is proud to announce the innovation of new .223 rifle round!

This round embodies the reliability and safety of the handgun Air Freedom Rounds.

Specifically designed for tactical entry teams in an urban environment, where it is crucial to contain the rounds within a limited space.

The frangible characteristics of the new AFR make it a necessity when the situation requires a round with no ricochet, reduced over penetration, and will drop all the kinetic energy inside the target thereby reducing liabilities.

This round is designed to fragment after passing through two ¾ inch sheetrock partitions, thus making your .223 rifle an ideal home-defense weapon.

SPECIFICATIONS

• Cartridge: .223 30gr AFR
• Projectile: 30 grain Tungsten core, copper-jacketed, flat-base, round nose
• Velocity: 3,100 feet per second

30-06 Belted Ammunition Availability and Others – An Update from the Civilian Marksmanship Program

30-06 Belted Ammunition

Civilian Marksmanship Program

CAMP PERRY, OHIO – -(AmmoLand.com)- AmmoLand readers here is an update on 30-06 ammunition availability from the Civilian Marksmanship Program.

AP .30-06 M2 BALL: The .30-06 AP ammo that we now have available includes headstamps: AYR, SL, TW, and LC. Dates of manufacture vary from the 1940s to the 1950s. Most of the ammo is corrosive, but some may be non-corrosive.

The ammo is packaged in 8 round M1 Garand enbloc clips, in bandoleers, in spam cans.

Purchases of multiple cans will be shipped in what appear to be the original wooden crates (two spam cans per crate). Cans and crates will be selected luck of the draw as to the headstamp.

4C3006U202-192P. Single spam can (192 rounds). $60.00. S&H at $8.95 per can. CMP will not ship any AP ammo to Massachusetts, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico, or the Virgin Islands. The following states do have laws regarding AP ammo, but the laws are unclear as to whether or not they apply to .30-06 AP ammo, since this ammo was designed for use in a rifle and not in a handgun. Customers from these states should be aware that even though .30-06 AP may be currently sold in their states, there is a risk of arrest and prosecution for the possession of .30-06 AP, depending on how their local law enforcement officers interpret their state definition of “Armor Piercing or Restricted ammo”.

These states are: California, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, Rhode Island, Tennessee, New York, New Jersey, Hawaii, and Nevada. Residents of these and all other states should check your state and local laws on ammunition sales before ordering. Even in states where state law does not prohibit AP, there may be cities within that state that prohibit or restrict possession of AP ammo.
