Where are all the supplies going?

[jlostrander]

I you are in a population center like I am, I'm not sure if this will end any time soon.

Limiting my clay shooting for myself and my boys as I don't know when target loads will be coming in numbers. If you go to the local trap/skeet range, you can buy two boxes max from them at $12 a box. I wonder, how long they can continue to operate in that way? The boxes are strange brands with strange configurations. Essentially, the range is doing its best to stay open.

I suppose if the company that owns Remington Ammo rights, gets it's production up we might see some leveling off of this situation.

Until then, we are in for the long night.

Of course, they say they are in operation. But, I haven't seen any gun club available.

Because it never leaves the ammo companies Warehouse. All goes to the new shell Fake companies. MD.

Ok you have to invite us along on this train of thought. WHY are the fake shell holding companies holding all the inventory in the manufacturer's warehouse? What do they do with it, just let it sit there?

List it on Gunbroker (being sarcastic) for 10x the value... And getting it quiet frankly... Everyone complains, but the powder and primers are selling on gunbroker. People are willing to pay it... I know I have bought some most haves on there... Short Supply, Higher Prices...

Sportsman's warehouse in ABQ had both a few weeks ago. Nothing I wanted, but none the less, had some.

Thank you. I live in Santa Fe but will check them out when I go to Albuquerque.

I've alway said: they won't ban the guns, it'll be the ammo you won't be able to get

Conspiracy theory version, people are getting ready for the coming civil war. I know this sounds crazy, but I've heard more than one person say it, even people I would never believe thought this way.

The supplies are all being bought up by panic buyers who suddenly think they need 10K primers and 20# of powder to support their 300 round a year shooting hobby. A customer who would have normally bought 200 primers and 1# of powder to last them a year, has increased the volume of components because they're worried about "supply shortages".

There is no shortage of supplies or components, only availability issues caused by customers over buying.

Well to be honest, I typically only shoot about 200rnds of .22 a year anymore. I am sitting on about 3000rnds of .22 right now because

#1 it is not always available
#2 it will only go up in price
#3 it could get taxed out of existence by libtards

I reload and maybe shoot about 300 rnds a year. I wish I had 10K primers for the same reason but only have about 1K right now. I have a lot of powder and brass for the calibers I have. By the end of summer I will most likely have used every primer so I have 1K of rounds ready to go which is only about 300rnds per rifle.

You can blame me or you can blame Politicians but 20 years ago I never feared the government could go this fascist/socialist so fast. Now Presidents are selected and the military doesn't protect and defend the constitution.

Here is a question for our brothers and sisters in the north country Canada.
Is there a shortage of components in Canada?
Thanks in advance! Jim
