Ammo Shortage

Meh, they said worse when obomber was elected. Said he was gonna come take all the guns. Things got expensive for a couple months then everyone realized it was hyperbole and things got back to normal. Ole' Creepin' Joe isn't gonna take guns away any more than o'bomber did. It's all scare tactics and malarkey. The price gouging now is really rough though and I'm sure enough sorry I didn't stock up when I could've.

Couple of months? Hardly. It was more like 5 years.

I wouldn’t be so sure this time. He’ll try, but with a couple of million new gun owners, it may be a bit more difficult.
Ammo will be a year to get back on shelves and it will be more expensive going forward.

I guess it wasn't as bad down here in FL. Fear is what's driving the prices up. People getting all freaked out over nothing again.

last year, you could buy run of the mill 9 for anywhere from 18c per/rnd to 22c/per round or less at times.
At this time, it's 85c and up.

Pulling my weight
I went plinking with my AR over July 4th weekend. Didn't realize that I had no more 223 left at home. I haven't checked too many places, but haven't seen any locally for quite a while.
