Grant started a thread a little over a year ago now on this very subject. Even then dealers such as himself saw how hard it was to get and keep certain items in stock; lowers, BCGs, LPKs, etc.
The ammo shortage we saw last time around will be back, hopefully not as bad as the industry took notice and is pumping out more ammo than ever before.
Things I noticed here of late:
Hornady 7.62x39 SST has dried up completely. Every online vendor is OUT and so is all my local shops. I'm glad I met my goals before it was all bought up!
7.62x51 NATO is getting harder to come by as well. I'm talking about the plain Jane 147 gr. stuff mind you.
9mm fmj "cheap" ammo is harder to come by more and more locally. Online is hit and miss.
It took me quit awhile to locate DD LPKs. Aim finally got some in and picked up a few from them. CTD had about ten of them in stock in their CTD Guns! store this week.
