You expressed frustration at gun owners for stockpiling ammo. You blame us for the high prices and shortages.
If you had a couple of functioning brain cells, you would put the blame where the blame belongs - on the federal gov’t.
Every federal agency from the USDA to the NEA are establishing SWAT teams and buying huge amounts of weapons and ammo.
There is a lawless executive administration hell-bent on disarming us.
It's not your opinion that bothers me, it's your ignorance.
Now I must go back to wading up my purdee pink panties. It takes me lots of time as I'm just a little girl, or is it a curmudgeon? Or maybe I'm a cupcake, although I don't think cupcakes where panties.
I look forward your next entertaining reply with breathless anticipation.
If you had two brain-cells to rub together, you would already be well aware that rimfire is produced on a separate, wholly incompatible manufacturing line from centerfire. Personally, I know of a manufacturing rep from one of the rimfire producers who said if he suggested they ramp up rimfire production in a company meeting, he would be fired on the spot. Mention that in your next conspiracy-club meeting when you get off the topic of UFO’s and chupacabra. See if anyone is smart enough for the light-bulb to fire up over their head.
So as someone who likes to hoard excessively above the average (note: to avoid inflicting further butt-hurt, I give you permission to do so, cupcake!), how does a govt procurement contract that specifies an order quantity “up to x quantity” over a multi-year contract and not “due at delivery upon acceptance” in any way significantly impacts rimfire production? And if the good common-sense most folks were born with leads you to deduce that it doesn’t, then you just might have a sane epiphany. Further, if everyone were like you and stockpiling orders of magnitude more than they shoot (what did you say you shoot? 10 pistol rounds 3 times a week?), you would still think it’s the govt that’s driving the shortage. It couldn’t *possibly* be because you drain the shelves as fast as they are stocked, could it? That’s your right to do so, but it’s also my right to point out just how big of a leech you are for doing it. Your ego precludes you realizing the obvious. You clearly don’t like me pointing it out, but you have no choice. When I yank your strings, you dance. So dance.
