Stopped by the Humble Academy this morning. Had just about everything available, if you wanted to pay!

Stopped in the Sugar Land location today, they actually had 357 Sig on the shelves. First time I've seen it since before the pandemic.

Y’all have lines? I guess that’s an upside of a smaller town with about half the population being stupid anti gun college students, is that I can go any day into academy for ammo

No lines. I was the only guy in the ammo section this morning.

Had 5.7 ammo at the Plano 75 location. No 38/357/44mag.

Whenever I visit academies in the Dallas area there are no lines for ammo or guns

Because folks either don’t have time for their arduous gun buy process, or they can’t afford the high priced ammo.

On a serious note, it’s probably because the gun buy panic is over, and those who wanted a gun already have one now along with their ammo. Everyone else is just buying what ammo they absolutely need and waiting on prices to go down to a more reasonable price. I see the same thing at the Houston stores.

The Academy on 59 and Kirby (Houston) had so much ammo last week, that not only were all the shelf’s full, but 5 or 6 end caps had bulk 5.56 and 9mm, and there was a cart they use for stocking shelf’s FULL of overflow ammo as well as primers. And that store never really stocked reloading stuff in the past, so I stopped checking there. I went last week to get some socks, and ran by there new gun counter. Was shocked to see all the ammo and primers. There is a 4 pack limit on ammo and primers, but I went back every day on my way to work and ended up with 2K Federal Gold Medal match large rifle primers. I stopped going after that, but they still had several bricks of pistol and rifle primers left.

Gun sales still about same as last year

Between 2.5 to 3.0 million guns sold per month every month in 2022 thru June

I think you are dead on about the panic being over. Every Academy I go to has full display cases. Lots of pistols on the shelf.


Must be something different at every Academy. They never run a check on me due to the LTC. It doesn’t take any longer there than other places.

I always feel like they made it happen in a timely manner.

My gun purchasing experience at Academy is mixed. The local store is abysmal. Slower than Methuselah. They’re retarded in that store.
This is my typical experience with Academy.
On the other hand I once purchased a handgun from a store in San Antonio and the guy running the counter that day was very quick and efficient. He knew what he was doing and had me out the door in about twenty minutes.

Customer service can suck or be good. Depends on the employee, I've encountered good and bad at Academy. But the same every business, find a good customer service person and let them know.
