Can we find out where all this ammo is stored? DHS doesn’t have ‘reservations’ like the military does. Seems like a great opportunity for severe “waste and spoilage”——keeping it in broom closets and under the bosses desk?
I read a lot on gun forums about that happening with all brands of .22 ammo that's sold in those large boxes. However, I have fired several thousand of them over the past few years and haven't had any more misfires than I would expect to have with the more expensive stuff, which is very few. Maybe I've just been lucky, or maybe my little 1940's vintage Mossberg rifle has a stronger firing pin spring than newer rifles have. It's the most accurate .22 rifle I have ever owned, and that includes most of the big name brands at one time or another over the past 55 years that I've owned guns.
As for the current ammo shortage I don't know what's going on, but if I were a betting man (I'm not) I would put money on it having something to do with the Kenyan Kommy who has twice lied his way into our White House. Now that he's on his last term his real agenda is beginning to show through the camouflage. It's not pretty now, and it's only gonna get uglier as his time in office grows shorter. The next Congressional election may well be the most critical election in US history.
