AMMO? (GUN/AMMO SHORTAGES, DISCUSSION HERE)

[themonk]

Doing inventory is good. Well worth everyone's time.

I have been getting organized for the last week and i'm happy with where i'm at. Only thing I was short on was 308 hunting ammo which has been rectified. 22lr is gone after this last batch of deliveries coming this week. After that I bet it's at least 2 to 3 years before we see it again.

So, I always wonder why they are still in business. I've refused to buy from them since the first time they tried this crap..

Because there's always someone more desperate than you are that'll pay whatever they ask.

Eff 'em in my opinion.

Remember this?

There is a reason everyone in Texas calls them Cheaters and Turds.

I remember them charging a hundred bucks per PMags. I also remember hearing someone say they would not urinate on them if they were on fire.

Oh wait, I was the one that said that.

Did gun stores just empty out where you are?

I have not been in one since last Saturday.

I picked up a rare variant of a classic old DA/SA metal gun that had been traded in.
It was total business as usual.

I am hearing reports these places are empty now.

It blows my mind people have lived through the 94-04 ban, Obama, sandy hook, etc. and are out panic buying and we have shut down and ruined an economy and countless businesses and jobs over a virus that absolute worst case would have killed 120- 650 thousand of the exact same 3 million people that were going to die of heart, respiratory, stroke, infections, etc. this year even without the virus.

Anyway,
Without opening safes or getting into stuff, I shall sit and stare at some walls while shaking my head over the madness,

12G, like 22lr, for me......3 bullets can last 40 years

I have a bunch of suppressed 10/22s so I go through a little bit of that. I don't think I've shot any 12 gauge in the last 3 years, I just have it.

There are people known as democrats. They recognize the need, but their pride and holier-than-thou, true-believer attitude prevents them from the uncivilized act of owning a firearm. Suddenly, their high horse is tired and thirsty and they can’t mount it.

I’ve got all the guns I’ll ever need.

The stores around here are suddenly low on budget-friendly defensive carbines, bulk ammo, and such. Hunting rifles, high-end ARs and shotguns, and expensive metal-framed handguns are still there. You can still find self-defense ammo as well. The surprising thing is that magazines are in abdundance.

My local store that I have good friends at said that everyone wanted shotguns. If they had 500 shotguns they could have sold them all.

WTF? Shotguns?

As of mid week still had handguns other than glocks and some ARs. They said noone is buying stripped lowers or AR parts. All new gun owners that are totally clueless.

Anybody else thinking about when to sell off a few extras?

Here the lowers doubled in price and only goofy ones are still in stock.
