Napolitano is the Scrooge McDuck of the ammo world.
So many dogs, so few bullets.
Someone will come along soon here and tell us why this has been “necessary” and it’s nothing to worry about....
Will the gov be going into the business of selling ammo - at a profit - for themselves - under the proverbial table ???
At whose expense - as usual.

If the public AND the local police have a hard time getting ammo .... guess whom's in the crosshairs ?
Guess who's got the loaded, enhanced weaponry?
But ... I'm just a tin foiler ...

The shelves sure are empty at Walmart.
After the local police departments (for the most part) took the side of the gun control pushers over the last few months, it is kind of difficult for me to feel any sympathy for them. Maybe they will finally wake up, recognize where the real threat is coming from (and it is NOT from the law-abiding American citizens), and start asking some real questions of their overseers, the Feds.
Know what I find far more incredible?
That Republicans are not demanding answers.
Once again the Republicans are cowering off in the corner, ever afraid of a Democrat the MSM calling them a nut. And the Democrats walk all over them like a door mat ever threatening that they might sneak up behind these Republicans and shout, “BOO”.
When money becomes “printable” in practically unlimited quantities, it can be used by government as a weapon through otherwise free markets. That is, until the paper becomes worthless like in Zimbabwe...
AmmunitionStore.com and CTD are pretty much sold out of 9 mm, .308, and 7.62x39 and very low on .40 and .45. I bought .40 and .45 recently for over $1/rd.
Ammo shelves in many places have been empty for months and months.
I thought I saw a thread yesterday where they had the beotch up before Congress to answer for the hug ammo purchases and it absolutely refused to answer their questions. It should have been sent to jail for contempt of Congress.
It was THE PLAN from the start. They can’t outlaw guns, so they disrupt the ammo supply by buying up all the product..........
I am thinking... this might be a VERY profitable time to open a ammunition factory in Texas.
A lot of calibers show a delivery date out into next summer or fall but once an item is on backorder that date can change for the better.
Sometimes in just a few weeks they will let you know your order is available.
I half am expecting to next hear rumors that the DHS is building “reeducation camps” in remote areas. With this administration you don’t need to be paranoid to think such things.
A few days ago I saw some of Baltimore’s finest load cases marked as handgun cartridges into the trunk, back seat and floor of the backseat of an unmarked 4 door sedan. A lot of ammo. They were about one block away from Downtown HQ just past lunchtime. Hmmmm.
A Resolution in the United States House of Representatives:
“That by stockpiling a vast surplus of ammunition for undisclosed purposes, the Department of Homeland Security has destabilized the ammunition market in the United States by creating an artificial shortage that has deprived both the public and law enforcement organizations throughout the US of the ammunition they both want and need for their own purposes.
“Therefore the DHS is directed to sell as surplus 1 billion rounds in its inventory at auction, in lots not greater than 100,000 rounds each to a single individual or organization, and which excludes any federal employee, contractor or organization. Furthermore, that this ammunition auction shall be at a price limited 70% of the cost of procurement and no higher.”
