Ammo vending machines could be coming to Florida

You won’t be buying a snack from these vending machines.

Instead, they’re stocked with ammo, and they could be making their way to Florida.

American Rounds is the company behind the machines, and they’ve been expanding to states all across the southern U.S., but buying the bullets is a little more in-depth than getting your favorite soda.

The machines have ID scanners and facial recognition for security.

“It’s going to be a facial recognition scan; pair your picture to the ID, so that says okay, yes, this is the person that owns the ID that the faces match, and then only then can the transaction be complete,” said Grant Magers, American Rounds CEO. “Right now, ammo is sold on the internet, where any minor can click that they’re 21 or 18, or whatever that state law is, and they can have 2,000 rounds shipped to their house.”

The machines are located in retail locations like grocery stores, so when you’re stocking up on eggs, you can leave with a box of nine millimeters, too.
