Here is a great resource http://ammoseek.com/

Had 3 or 4 sites when I bought mine a few months ago, this link takes you to anybody presently in stock, so the links change frequently.

Ed,
Does the JSP ammo work for you in your Lugers? It doesn't work very well for me. It hangs up on the barrel feed ramp. I have much better luck with the FMJ(hardball) ammo.

Looks like it is an all matching gun. I'm pretty impressed, actually. rhuff, I've used both FMJ and the soft points in this and they feed flawlessly. I've seen no real difference and both types of shell feed, fire, and eject nicely. One local range only has the soft pointed stuff.
