Getting more pistol ammo in Sons of the Forest is a high priority once you get the handgun. Unfortunately, 9mm ammo is relatively rare. But, depending on your luck, you might build a decent cache, or you may hardly ever see it drop. If you want more pistol bullets, you’ll want to check in the places we list below.
Where do you find more pistol ammo in Sons of the Forest?
There are a few locations where you can find pistol ammo in Sons of the Forest. Here are some places where 9mm ammo can spawn:
- Cases
- Caves
- Containers
- Near dead soldiers
- Skin Pouches
Most ammo in Sons of the Forest is generated through RNG. So, finding pistol bullets depends on luck. Your best bet for farming 9mm is to map out areas where multiple containers and cases spawn. These reset every 2-3 in-game days, and you’ll have another chance to acquire pistol ammo.
I haven’t been able to confirm this, but it seemed like ammo spawns more frequently in military-style cases like the ones found at the initial crash site.
Of course, you can also just hand the pistol over to Virginia since she has unlimited ammo for all firearms in her inventory. Even if you hand her an unloaded gun, she’ll somehow pull bullets out of the air and engage any enemies close to her.
