Aquila ammo?

Post by barnett3006 »

is the stuff any good? Anybody shoot any of it?

Im looking to stock up on some handgun calibers and AIM has good prices on the calibers I need in the Mexican brand ammo.

I know that Aquila told several vendors that they were coming out with 9x18 and these dealers listed it on their web sites for a year or two. Then they never delivered, and wouldn't respond to inquiries from the dealers or from me.

Sorry, I haven't shot any Aquila in other calibers.

I've only shot Aguila in 22LR ... their rimfire stuff all functions well and they have some of the most innovative loads available for this caliber ... from SUPER high velocity 30-something grain HP's, to just barely subsonic 60 grainers, all the way to INSANELY quiet primer only loads. I haven't shot their other loads, but I wouldn't hesitate to try them.

+1 with Saands...I've only shot their 22lr but it functions great, the price is right and I understand they are the supplier for a mojor brand or are the "private label" of a major brand of an ammo manufacturer...I don't remember but wouldn't hesitate to try other loads... 8-)

I've had some Aquila .380 for a few months but spend all my shooting time with 9mm Mak in my Maks and P-64s, so I have nothing to report.

I've never shot it.

I must be looking at the wrong AIM Surplus - I can only find Wolf Military Classic there. Wolf was so filthy in my Mosin, I can't bring myself to put it though guns I like. :'(

wwetabix, I may have sidetracked the discussion - Aquila doesn't make 9x18.

I found 9x18 aguila on some website before (of course saying "out of stock") and I also contacted the company to no avail

and their company page went to "under construction" soon after I sent them an e-mail (about 8 months or so ago)

I have shot alot of Aguila 38 special that I got from Aim Surplus. I have had no problems with it but I shoot it out of a revolver. The price was a very low $8.95/box for hollow points. They are sold out of the 38 special now however.
