Picked up 1700 rounds of 9mm and thought nothing of it

When did this become normal? I’m 26, in my first year or gun ownership, and I’ve witnessed so many things I would’ve considered abnormal if you told me back in 2016. I’m glad I can still walk into several local gun shops and purchase large amounts of ammunition but I know it’s nothing like it was. <br><br>I own a Glock 17, an M92, and a P226. I’ve been experimenting with different rounds and I’m about to stop stockpiling and just buy whatever is cheapest because I’m not really noticing too large of a difference. <br><br>Also, side note, I’m not sure why anyone carries a Glock 43. The G17 and G26 are only about an inch larger but hold six or seven more rounds. I can’t say I know the statistics but in the videos I’ve viewed, 7-10 rounds is usually enough. And if it’s not, you’re probably fucked anyway.
