Nah, Americans use metric for selling drugs at the very least.

Also for gun calibers (is that the right word?)

Too true! ( Yep, that's the right word)

Drugs, not even ounce

You can't buy a cup of crack in the US?

Volumetric measurements aren't really good for drugs, the density of the drug may vary depending on quality, origin or manufacturer, in the case of crack and meth. Weight is always better, but then you measure with half, quarter, eighth and sixteenths of ounces. See, we do have to use fractions after all.
