So far, there's the obvious way of gathering it from enemies. That's good during missions, but not if you need the ammo _for_ the mission.
The mail order seems very expensive, even with tens of thousands on hand. I understand it's a great way to regain confiscated weapons, but they don't sell just bulk ammo when they clearly should. Same as the grenades and cocktails.
Hijacking armaments doesn't seem very worthwhile. For all the effort it takes to track down one of those trucks, entrap it (they speed away at the first sign of trouble), lure the driver out without exploding the vehicle, gunning him down while he's firing a shotgun at you, returning to a base, and retrieving the cache, I end up with some shotgun shells. It would take forever and you have no control over what is received.
Then there's the scratch tickets. That takes almost as long as the trucks to run through a dozen free kevlars and maybe get one weapons, and again you can't control which gun.
Otherwise I'm considering just using cheats, since at least I wouldn't waste hours on this chore.
It is limited, i've just got by on those methods and buying some from the shop, seems a shame i spend $7.5k on SMG's everytime i do a decent mission or stint messing about.
