Automated ammunition vending machines have been introduced in grocery stores in Oklahoma and Alabama by American Rounds. These machines offer a convenient way to purchase ammo without interacting with a store clerk and are available 24/7. Equipped with advanced AI technology, the machines use card scanning and facial recognition to verify buyers’ identities and ages, ensuring compliance with regulations. The variety of handgun, rifle, and shotgun rounds available can be purchased at locations in Kingston, Lindsay, Noble, and Wetumka. The company posted a video on X on June 27 showing recent installations at Super C Mart stores in Oklahoma, with two stores in Alabama also featuring the machines. This innovative approach to purchasing ammunition offers customers flexibility and efficiency in their shopping experience while maintaining legal compliance.
