I note that my rocket ammo does not respawn with Gunzerking, and I rarely find any in crates and such. I've checked the ammo vending machine and it does not have any. Is it possible to buy rockets, or are they found only? Where is a good place to find them.

Weapons that REGENERATE ammo
Note, the following two weapons require a purchase of the Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade pack
Counterbution revengence. The reckoning. – High overall stats. Behaves like a bouncing betty grenade when reloaded. Regenerates SMG ammo when wielded.
Fresh Meat! – Very low pellet count. Greatly increased fire rate. Achieves maximum accuracy much more quickly than other Hyperion shotguns. Magazine randomly refills a random amount of ammo as it's fired, giving it a wildly variable magazine size in use. Fire rate highly increases under sustained fire.
Grenade Mods that REGENERATE ammo
The following 4 mods will require purchase of the DLC, Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragonkeep
What's a jigawatt? – Always Shock. Regenerates grenade ammo over time. Shoots straight forward with a lightning graphic and explodes on impact. Character may shout "Lightning Bolt!" and a custom throwing sound will be heard after use while playing in Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep.
Don't pay it back, pay it forward. – Always Shock. Regenerates grenade ammo over time. Shoots a bolt of lightning straight forward that explodes on impact and arcs to nearby targets. Character may shout "Lightning Bolt!" after use while playing in Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep.
Porkchop Sandwiches! – Always incendiary. Regenerates grenade ammo over time. Shoots a slow moving fireball straight forward that explodes on impact. When used, has a custom sound effect when thrown and the character may shout "fireball!" while in the DLC Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep.
What manner of man are you that can summon up fire without flint or tinder? – Always incendiary. Regenerates grenade ammo over time. Shoots a fireball straight forward that explodes on impact. Four additional fireballs spawn above the spot of the original explosion and fall to the ground. Character may shout "Fireball!" upon use while playing in Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep.
No wand required. Just point and shoot. – Always slag. Grenades slowly regenerate over time. Two (Blue rarity) or Four (Purple rarity) child grenades home in on targets and explode instantly. Character may shout "Magic Missile!" after use while playing in Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep.
Weapons that DON'T consume any ammo
It's closer than you think! (no it isn't) – Does not consume ammunition. Shots fired form a fixed lemniscate (∞) pattern, ignoring normal recoil behavior. Increased accuracy when aiming down the sights.
As an extra note, you'll need to have at least 1 bullet of pistol ammo, or the Infinity will not fire.
Vladof launchers can have the special ability "reduced ammo consumption," which means that every third shot fired is not deducted from either the magazine or the player's ammo stock. This is coupled with lower base damage, though the overall destructive capacity of the weapon remains roughly the same as an equivalent launcher from most other manufacturers.
It seems like, throughout the internet, there are three main options. The three options are the Ballroom Blitz (Pyro Pete's Bar), the Race (Tier 3), or Slot Machines.
Here's a video explaining the Ballroom Blitz:
Essentially, from what I found from the GameFaq forums:
Bar room ball. Tested and it's faster. The quickest I was able to get 20 from the race was 80 seconds or so. 1:45 to finish the race and I had something like 20 seconds left over. Bar room brawl on the other hand, you get 2:30 (I think) and the fastest I was able to do that was in 45 seconds. The trick is to stay in two areas. The Badasses only appear to spawn upstairs and out of the top right door on the bottom level (according to your map) so all I do is stay close to that staircase and travel up and down between floors. Never have I failed to kill them all this way and usually it's in under a minute.
On the other hand though, you can try doing the races to gain tokens. It's a lot simpler if you have Afterburner relics with you.
Also taken from the GameFaq Forums:
Bar Brawl is faster ... but I HATE that I lose money there. Every session at least one or two rats seem to get away and stash my money, grrrr.
So I just used the Tier 3 Death Race with an Afterburner relic. Only slightly slower, but no irritating money loss.
Note that with the option of doing the races, you will have no rats taking your hard-earned Torgue Tokens, and you'll get a guaranteed 20 tokens upon winning.

Best Answer
You can buy Launcher ammo but not in the first few areas' Ammo Dumps; by the time you reach Sanctuary you should find them; I know for a fact Sanctuary eventually stocks them for the rest of the game, but it might be level-restricted.
Rocket Launchers and several other guns (elemental guns, SMGs) seem to be restricted to mid-game levels only. You were "lucky" to find them before being able to get ammo for them, but rest assured it's just as easy to get ammo for launchers as it is other guns later on.
