Ammunition Vending Machines Launch in Southern Grocery Stores

TL;DR Summary
American Rounds has introduced vending machines selling ammunition in grocery stores across Alabama, Texas, and Oklahoma, using AI and facial recognition to verify customers' identities and ages. While the ATF and Oklahoma Attorney General have deemed the machines lawful, the move has sparked mixed reactions, with some officials concerned about the potential misuse of easily accessible ammunition. Despite relocating one machine due to low sales, the company plans to expand into more states, including California, Florida, and Hawaii.
