If you are buying/building weapons or reloading it looks like things are getting tight. I bought an extra stripped AR-15 lower receiver when I built a M4orgery a few months ago. Even the it was difficult to get a good price. I am glad I did at that time. Now it seems that uppers are getting scarce. I'm in the middle of a M24 build and want to do a M10. I think I will jump on the lower for that as soon as I have funds.
If anyone knows of a good, inexpensive source of Lake City 5.56 cases, let me know. I'm looking for quantity ... 2-3k.

I got this friend who lives in Colorado.
He told me he has ordered (over the last year or so) ammo from on line store...
I wonder if “they-wink, wink” are tracking UPS and other parcel delivery services now, for shipments of ammo, primers and powder??
Would it still be safe for him to order ammo on line??

Wonder what happens if it's brought to the floor at 0200 hours when most against it are absent and the few there are for ratification and two-thirds of them vote in favor of it."I'll take Revolution for $1000, Alex."

with both wars drawing down (supposedly), ammo and components should start becoming more available. The wars have been the big excuse for the supply shortages for over a decade now.

Regarding the Senate vote, and the 2/3rds required; I think no matter how many are there for the vote, the ultimate vote has to be 2/3rds of the total number of Senators.

So everything’s sold out for another year and a half or more. Thanks. I’ll check again later in a couple of years.

Ya know, the wifey thought I was nutty when we lived back in Pa and I was buying case after case of 556; back when it was $179, back when Colt prebans were $440 new. She doesn't think it is nutty anymore. My problem is I never shoot them anymore, they are all in vault. Nowadays we hunt with 6.8s, 338 fed, and pretty quick, I'll have a new 308 Scar to kill moose & caribou with.
I don't see the shortage, but I reload for all my hunting ARs; FMJs just go right through and ya feed the wolves. No joke, buy a 6.8 stag and you'll say good by to your old 556 ARs. I load 29 grains H322 with 110 grain ttsx and getting over 2700 on the chrono; have killed bou out to 550 yards with that sweet little shooter with horse shoe/red dot Acog. I also really like the SSA brass and they seem to always have what I order. Getting away from the 556 with ARs seems to improve availability, but mainly for reloaders. Seriously, I have real peace of mind in the fact knowing that my grandkids will be getting their fresh meat with the ammo I took care of before they were even born.
And get outta of Pa, dyin place for sure and there's much nicer, freer country all over America than back east.

An unfortunate sign of how politically charged our nation has become, that merchants are now openly discussing such things. I have also noted this in kids -- most ten year-olds today have more political awareness than most people twice that age thirty years ago, myself included.
But as the left has continued its endless drumbeat of agitation, corruption and increasing arrogance, I suppose it's only to be expected.
They have been sowing the wind for a very long time now.

Back in 1965 I traded a Colt Challenger, which is a version of the Woodsman, for an excellent 1903A3 and 1000 rounds of Lake City Match. Of course it was 30-06. The rifle also had a Redfield receiver sight and Sourdough front.
The trade was pretty much an even one but now I would think I got way the best of it. Ammo really has gone up faster than inflation.
