Shooter C96 - where do I find ammo?

Back in the "good old days" of the 90's, I bought a C96 import in about the shape of yours for 179.00 through Shotgun News. There was a company called Mentor Arms that did a darn good restoration and relining for the princely sum of 300.00 ! Now, all I know of is a firm called Redmans that will reline it in .30, but they won't bore to 9mm. The recoil spring won't be an issue. Finding ammo just requires some scrounging....look at Midway, Graf, Midsouth Shooters, etc. It is available at about 25.00 a box. Good luck.
