Sinkster 0 #1 September 13, 2004 Now that the AW ban is about to lift, I was thinking about stocking up an armoury with some good weapons, clips, and ammo. Anyone have any advice on a good place to shop for previously banned weapons and big-ass banana clips and stuff like that? I'm thinking it's going to be real hard to find anything since it hasn't been manufactured for so long, but maybe someone stockpiled or prepared? Any tips?
