I’ll be surprised if we see 16cpr factory 9mm this time next year, even if Trump is reelected.
Manufacturers ramped up during the last panic, only to have sales fall off.It wasnt my intent to merely regurgitate thoroughly covered news.
Just observing that the cause is a "perfect storm" of sorts; pandemic, rioting, and election year.
I'm worried how long this will last because its also been reported that firearm and ammo manufacturers are not gearing up to meet the demand.
A lot of consumable shortages is due to decades of LEAN manufacturing and Just In Time supply chain management that’s optimized for a lower average demand.
That shit doesn’t get fixed overnight and many manufacturers aren’t going to invest in entirely new factories necessary to cull shortages. The best one can hope for is 24/7 production, assuming supplies are sufficient to support that for the year or so it takes to recoup the cost of labor or O/T necessary.

I'm gonna start a riot after my nap.
