Major Ammo "Shortage"

Can somebody please explain this ammunition shortage in laymans terms? What is all the fuss about?

It's about the death of a country......

Told my brother in law to stock up more than 10 months ago.

Did he listen?

Nope.

I tried.

There is a gun/pawn shop in Grayson KY that has a pallet of .22 LR ammo available for $45 a brick. Still to expensive in my opinion, but a far cry from $125. I'm not concerned about it. I had over 10,000 rounds of the stuff before this scare started.

You have to keep in mind, this is a temporary scare. Nothing notable is going to change regarding gun laws. I have several friends that run gun/pawn shops. They are telling me that people are already trying to recoup lost money on guns they paid way too much for. Wait until Sept. of this year and you will be able to buy all you want of anything for little to nothing. And if you think that is a great deal, wait until 2016 when a republican takes office and you can get anything 40% cheaper.

These things are cycles. If you know how to read them, you can profit considerably.

I bought a .44 mag. revolver about a month ago. I planned on buying it regardless of this scare or not. I've shot over 500+ rounds through it so far and will shoot more. I load my own ammo, so the cost isn't as big a deal for me. Still, even reloading supplies are selling for stupid prices...for now. It will become normal in a few months or 12. It always does. No big deal. If you have patience and had decent supplies ahead of time, you will find it doesn't effect you in the least.

they are worth there weight in gold...hang on to em and don't sell for any price....you have been warned..

Okay.

Guns need ammo.

No ammo, your gun is useless.

Actually, I had a guy offer me close to that. Wouldn't sell. Until I know I can replace it, I'm not selling squat!!!

430$ for 1000 of 762x39,i know here is for sale

Post WWII in Europe after the Nazi's fell the primary form of currency was 22 rounds and tobacco.

With 22 rounds you could by anything.

You are a very wise man.

Grasshopper you passed the test!

I just do'nt get you. ATK is is hiring close to 2000 personel. I buy the same amount of ammo per mnth as I aiways have for the last 15 years. The amount of stuff on the shelf is not as prevalent as in the past, but you can get it. HELL, I can send my cat to get 22 ammo, and she can bring it home. Every saw shop and/or auto parts shop sells GUNS and ammo here. Have you tried moving? {not here} {ATK is CCI] But I guess everything east of the Big muddy is the city.

I got 9mm falling outta my butt from reloading and manage a trade for .22lr from someone that needed 9mms.....ammo barter is a reality now.....

Very little in western ky. either.

Oregon here...been this way since the new year

Your tax dollars hard at work screwing you out of your rights the Chicago way.

They don't need to ban guns...just starve the ammo supply. Fuck........

Seriously? why do you think that?

Think of this though, the population now has way more ammo in there house than a month ago.

That's already started...go to able ammo or midway....click on shells by gauge....MOST say out of stock, not available for backorder....there are quite a few still out there, but it's starting to follow suit. Weird.....

True....lots more

i was wondering the same thing,,cant find any ammo in Tn,i drove everywhere here looking for 9mm, .38 and 22lr

Yep nothing notable happened in New York, Colorado or California.... WAKE UP

ya, really. people are pretty fucking stupid sometimes.

I have no idea. Plenty of ammo here in California

battlefield pickup.....

We stopped in gun stores between AR and CO in Feb. and the shelves were sparse to empty in every state and random store we checked... That includes OK, TX, and NM... Glad we saw this coming in 08.

wait until the shelves at the grocery store are this bare and the clerks can't tell you when the next shipments of food are due to arrive.

Screw milk, got bullets?

The jew-masons are enacting a revolution in America, just like the Bolshevik revolution in Russia.

They are buying up all the ammo!

Some normal people are buying it also, but the primary problem is that the jew-masons are buying up anything and everything they can find. Its all coming to a head and Im afraid its gonna be extraordinarily bad. These are people who do not think like you or I. They will kill every single one of us with zero emotion if thats what it takes to achieve their goals. This is the most important thing going on in the world right now. If this conspiracy isnt exposed and stopped now, the world is doomed to a hellacious future. The world would be a much better place if Hitler had succeeded in defeating the jew-masons. Dont believe the demonization of him either.

Don't count on it slick! The next major problems coming are the restrictions on magazine capacity. People better start getting what they need now!
