    22lr Tracer Ammo - Gun City

    oh no - now that could cause a few fires?!

    Gun City of course

    Container of 22LR Tracer rounds anybody?
    After three years of negotiation we have succeeded in landing a container load of German manufactured 22LR tracer ammunition. Used by Tanks as sighting rounds this Ammunition is of the highest quality and performance. Keep checking our website, up in the next couple of days.

    Yep

    Little Lucifers everyone of them..

    Tracer rounds are banned on most ranges I know of so could only be used in the field.

    Not much good for hunting either.

    Cheers

    Shouldn't bag the shop, It's the people who buy it and misuse it.

    Yep to be honest in the countries current state its irresponsible to even have them on the shelf.

    Winter fun yep I'm good with that,
    Now can someone confirm tracer ammo does that foul the barrel up more or something ?

    Damn fun police, what ever happened to a free country. As long as GC inform their customers of the risks I have no problem with it. If we live based on the 1% we might as well give up shooting and hunting entirely just incase one gets used in a crime.

    I recon this would be great for describing bullet path to kids, and a lot of adults as well

    Fucking awesome! Ive been after 22 tracer for a long time. Me and the lads had a ball firing off the 762x39 stuff so cant wait for this lot to hit the shelf. As long as youre careful about where you shoot the stuff its harmless fun.

    I love the 7.62x39 stuff its great. Search on youtube for .22lr tracers and you see them rebound and go flying everywhere. its cool but probably bad.
