The machines are distributed by the Texas-based American Rounds.

This is so dumb it beggars belief. Yes, prohibited people are not allowed to buy ammo. However, anyone can go anywhere and buy ammo with nothing more than an ID, and that’s only an age check. Do these senators think Walmart is running a background check on me when I pick up a box of 12-gauge?!
Saw an amusing video showcasing the ammo cops had confiscated from gangbangers. These guys often had 3-4 different types of ammo in the same magazine. If they can’t afford to visit Academy for a box of 20, they sure can’t afford vending machine prices.
Wrong hill to fight on you idiots.

Wait what? Background checks on everyone that goes in a Walmart?? That’s an insanely large number of people.

None of this would be very surprising to me but you got a source on this?
Could I bother you for some sauce?

I might be misreading this, but it seems like the ACLU is saying it’s possible, but they don’t have any yard evidence.

You confidently.stated things as fact without hard evidence.

Different calibers or different tips?
People have pet theories about the best order of rounds for self defence and stuff.
I bet you’re right it’s just whatever they found but different calibers would surprise me
Yeah, putting different rounds in a magazine isn’t that weird. It’s particularly useful if you are using tracers, to notify you when the end of the magazine is coming up for example, and to only have a tracer every few rounds. Even without that, there are reasons someone might have for mixing rounds in a magazine. Obviously, like you said, same caliber is how this is done. If it’s alternating calibers then that’s not great.

They’re playing dumb because they want to start doing background checks on ammo purchases.
In NY, they have a background check for ammo now
Depends on the state. The senators in question are both from Massachusetts, where you are required to have a license to purchase a firearm, and, presumably, ammunition as well. I know that Illinois requires a Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) for any gun or ammunition purchase.
I don’t think I’d even get carded in my state; I’m clearly old enough.
Welcome to the circus of value!
When you think murder, think Marcus Munitions!
Welcome to the borderlands vault hunter!
If it took more than one shot, you weren’t using. Jakobs!
We can’t even have liquor in grocery stores here.
You can’t? I walked by weed vending machines last time I was in Texas.
And yet we didn’t win gold for every shooting event at the Olympics
