    Yep, just bought an RAR in .300 BLK, no problem. Pick it up next week. Thought it'd be a fun and quiet short-range project.

    Never cared before, hasn't changed now. Wether I have one round of 22 short or own a manufacturing facility....it's all the same to me.

    To be perfectly honest the problems I have with the panics are:

    People will buy a gun and a box of ammo, never even learn how to operate them outside a YouTube video

    The gun will either be stolen from their vehicle or their home and end up on the street to be used by for-real criminals

    Worst case, one if their kids will shoot themselves, a playmate, or a classmate

    The same people who are panic buying should be paying down bills or saving money for the economic roller coaster we are all living through

    Those all outweigh any inconvenience caused to me by ammunition shortages.

    This panic will go right through the election.

    If Trump wins it will die off by January. If he loses it will never end until our gun rights are dead.

    One thing that never ceases to amaze me (well, it is libtards so maybe not so much) is the sheer volume of guns and ammunition bought in all the "panics" since Shitstain was elected in 2008. How the Left still thinks that some magical wave of the pen over a piece of gun ban legislation is suddenly gonna make all that stuff disappear is beyond me. Well to be fair I guess a LOT of it will "disappear" alright. Nonetheless they have the temerity to assume people will dutifully line up like cucks and just hand it all over! Oh sure, many will, but seriously? Maybe 10% of the total will ever be turned over to the authoritahs. Guns are indelibly imbedded in our society, and NOTHING will change that.

    This isn't new. It's the avg gun owner since beginning of gun ownership. How many old revolvers show up from 90 year old widows who's husbands jave died and had this old revolver and a box of ammo in the sock drawer since 1954!!!

    And these aren't the people causing the problems. Buying a box or two doesn't do anything for availability. It's the guy with 12,000 cases buying another 10,000

    I have more than most armories... but I bought another 2k this week, because I got it delivered for $.38/rd., and couldn't pass it up.
