    Maybe not as good as Wayne L but he's got it right.

    These days the guys out hitting all the stores for ammo is as bad as Beanie Baby scavengers hunting them back in the day.

    If you don't need ammo to shoot right away, let the industry recover...

    well Turn Key, what about my right to buy it all up and flip it for a profit?

    Just playing devil's advocate until the Freebooters arrive... ;)

    This guy has no clue. If what this guy is saying is true the end user would still have as much ammo as they want, they would have just paid more for it. Why then are so many people saying they can't find the ammo? Cause there just isn't enough to go around. More people are buying using and stocking up then ever before. Until production can catch up to the demand things will stay were they are.

    I guess that's your opinion anyway.

    Whatever the reason it is a pain in the rump. I got a new 9mm to carry and can't go to the range to see if I like it. It's a good thing I love to shoot my 45 cause that I can get.

    come to any of the gun shows, I sell at least 10 cases of 9mm and there are a few other ammo venders at all of them. I'll be at the Ft Wayne show this weekend
