What the fuck is up with the ammo shortage?

Im running low on 9mm target ammo, so i go to a couple gun stores and they are out and supposedly be out for months. I knew ammo was low but no fucking ammo in the whole fucking city?

DHS bought it all up.

The real problem is the capitalists. The same guys are waiting in line at Academy and Walmart every morning at 6am. The same guys are buying up all the ammo, and then selling it online and at gun shows for a 100-200 percent markup. Basically, these guys are controlling the ammo right now. There's plenty of ammo out there, it's just not at your local stores. You'd have a better chance getting ammo online right now. Give it time, in 6 months things will be better, and in 12 months, things will be back to normal.

I got plenty of ammo seems as Obama is behind the shortage, background checks. See in this world today you gotta hide your money, your guns and your accounts.

Obama isn't behind anything, it's the consumers, hoarders, panickers, and opportunists. Go check gunbroker, there's well over a million rounds of 9mm there right now. You just gotta decide if you're willing to pay the price for it.

x2 i bet it is crazy preppers fucking the system up.

I heard they closed some online retailers down for price gouging.
And that the cops can't even get ammo. $:-\$ Which is scary as fuck.

I hope so, because i might have to buy a 38 special just to go to the range. I dislike 38 special.

38 special sucks, I had rather have .22 with hollow point ammo. Will explode on a person shrapnel taking control.

Nothing wrong with 38 special at all. It's actually my summer carry weapon.

With todays ammo technology, a 38 special is just as effective as a 9mm.

Anyone who has waited till now to stock up seeing O-Twink, Feinstein, Biden, Cuomo, Bloomberg, et al is fucking nuts.

The time was long to ago to get what you want

Yeah what's with the 38 hate???

One could go .357, and shoot .38 out of it. Opens up a lot of doors during times like these.

I don't get why people don't like it either. Fairly reliable, makes a decent sized hole, low recoil, low muzzle blast, cheap, etc. They're highly underrated revolvers. I think everyone should have one.

You nailed it. For its size, it's a great handgun.

Twaddle helped me find ammo for my Enfield Rifle! Expensive but rewarding firing something so accurate and powerful.

Be sure to test the ammo in your rifle, some of the MK1's can be picky with different 303 ammo. If your rifle like the ammo, you should be able hunt anything in N. America with it. They're good 100 yard rifles.
