IDW Generation 1 continuity

Ammo was a latter-day constructed cold Transformer: one of the "Made to Order" soldiers, built to repulse the attack on K'th Kinsere. This was in the days when the M.T.O.'s were put through a ten-step program of tests and exams to prove they were "world ready". Twenty Plus One

Trapped in a cell by Chief Justice Tyrest on the legendarily lost Luna 1, Rodimus was informed by Minimus Ambus that amongst his crimes was harbouring a criminal aboard the Lost Light. Trying to guess who among the ship's crew was the culprit, Rodimus picked Ammo fourth, after Whirl, Atomizer and Lancet. The Divided Self

Ammo was one of the twenty crewmembers who got into the Rodpod. He held several conversations with the others in the pod before ultimately disappearing alongside several others. Twenty Plus One

Presumably, he returned along with the others after the alternate-timeline Rewind reset the Lost Light's quantum engines. slaughterhouse Part 2: The Road Not Taken

Notes

• When Ultra Magnus first cast his eye over the crew manifest of the Lost Light in "How to Say Goodbye and Mean It", he picked out several Autobots whose names begin with "A" that he considered to be potential troublemakers. It's likely that Ammo was one of these.
• In James Roberts' fan-novel Eugenesis, there is an Autobot that is also called Ammo. However, that Ammo was killed and beheaded by Quintesson forces. Ouch.
• And if you dig deep enough into the Transmasters UK fan-continuity, you may come across Ammo's name in one of Roberts' earlier fanfictions known as The Polyhex Wars. In this piece, he is shown to have a much larger role as a totally epic sniper, previously known as Sights. Whether or not this would match his persona in the IDW canon is unknown, but given the differences between the character Quark in his unofficial fan novel Eugenesis and the Quark in Shadowplay, it would be best to leave Ammo's personality to the imagination of the reader.
