Silly article. There is much more ammo in the stores now than there has been in a year. Ammo run actually appears to be about over.
Exactly. Ammo sales were down due to price and availability.
If there recent jump in sales then it is probably due to ammo finally becoming available on the shelves. I seriously doubt that Americans are hoarding ammo over fear of a Russian invasion. That’s absurd.
“A recent surge in consumer demand for small arms ammunition – the onset of which perfectly coincided with the Russian invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022”
Correlation does not imply causation. The writer of this article is a hack.
Did you really just say that? Dude! You poor dumb bastard! You just jinxed us all.😔
Heck, I’m even finding Large Pistol primers!
Wish that were true of reloading components. Primers in particular are going for 10x what I paid in 2016. Been holding off buying for a couple of years now, but I 'm going to have to pony up mighty soon. My shelves are almost bare.
BTW my LGS, a family operation two towns over, had very little ammo when I was there 2 weeks ago. No .22 at all, and no name-brand .380 or 9mm.
5.56 on ammoseek.com had gotten down to ~$0.42 for a quality round. Back up another $0.10 or so.
Actually, we can get JHP 9mm but not ball. It’s exactly the opposite of a few months ago.
Try to find hunting ammo, it’s not available.
Not bought any in awhile, our Range is closed and up foir sale. So no practice time. No where near with a open range either.
They best be more worried about the lack of food on the shelves. And the every climbing prices.
His EO making us a DIGITAL CURENCY!
