Their vending machines are locked and loaded.

Two grocery stores in Alabama are selling gun ammunition in artificial intelligence-powered "retail kiosks" that scan buyers' identification cards and faces before spitting out bullets.

The refrigerator-sized machines, located at Fresh Value stores in Tuscaloosa and Pell City, use 360-degree facial recognition to verify a customer's age and ID in order to make it easier for folks to get firearm ammo, AL.com reported.

The Tuscaloosa store removed the vending machine there.
As of today the one at Pell City is still there. Pell City is just east of Birmingham.
