When playing against the AI, humans have quite a few advantages, ammo resupply is just one of them.
I agree with Andy's suggestion that if you're playing against the AI and want to limit one of those advantages, then don't buy ammo resupply units.
For PBEM games, you are right that ammo resupply would become more important, and both should buy resupply units.
When I've played with my low ammo infantry mod against the AI, I did not buy ammo resupply, and I found that only a few of my infantry units might have a SMG or rifle slot run out of ammo.
AI infantry units were less likely to run low on ammo - in my battles - because they were on the losing side. The winning side is the one whose infantry will generally run low on ammo first. Which means low ammo will usually help the AI, because it helps limit human dominance over the AI.
