What is happening with ammo? one reason there "seems" to be a shortage is somehow certain people are interrupting the supply chain and buying up ammo and then trying to resell on Gun Broker it for 2 or 3 times it's value to desperate gun owners. This borders on criminal in my book. These people are taking advantage of their jobs somewhere in the ammo supply chain and even at the retail level. Probably stock people. This appears to be very popular with the .22 cal CCI Mini Mags. Guys are trying to sell it for $15 to $25 per 100. Then if you look at the other ads these guys are posting you'll see there are multiple ads that they are doing the same thing. So somehow they are able to purchase thousands of these rounds and then try their dirty deeds. This isn't capitalism. this is something that is legal but definitely not fair play. That is where a lot of the ammo is going. The manufacturers are making more ammo than they every did. There is no shortage, only people creating the appearance of a shortage for their personal gain. It's almost like an organized crime ring because it is a relatively small amount of people who are in a position to intercept large shipments of ammo to retailers.
Also, you might have already noticed that there are folks lined up at Walmart at 7:00am. All the popular ammo is sold out within 20 minutes to about 15 to 20 people. then these guys do the same thing. They get on Gun Broker and try to resell the ammo for 2 or 3 times it's value. Though Walmart doesn't sell them, I saw a guy advertising a box of 25 Remington Golden Sabre .45s for $75. It really pissed me off and I wrote him and called him on his greed.
The only way to stop these jerks from doing this and creating an artificial ammo shortage is if we, the gun owners, stop buying their ammo at hyper-inflated prices from these jerks. WE HAVE TO STOP IT OURSELVES. Just refuse to do it. Go without if you have to. It won't last long if we all stick together and stop them in their tracks.
WE ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT CAN STOP THIS STUFF AND ALLOW THE MARKET TO RETURN TO NORMAL ON ITS OWN. PLEASE STOP BUYING AMMO FROM THESE PEOPLE.
