Non issue IMO. There's plenty of combloc ammo now flowing like a river from Serbia, Turkey and no doubt Ukraine under bidens reign. It won't take long for this ship to right itself but panic buyers will no doubt effect prices for a lil while. There were a few years where wolf actually contracted a Ukrainian manufacturer and it's great shooting ammo.

It's been 20+ years since I owned any Combloc chambered weapons, haven't missed shooting any of the crap ammo yet.

Only changes will be the price and name on box.

I believe it's 40-45% right now, at least at Academy it is. Add in the issues with shipping, and all the other messes out there right now; this will take a while to work out. I think a few years.
Glad I started stocking up on it during the early COVID period.

You know they make steel 9mm, 223, 308, 45, etc.....
I like to shoot... a lot. I'm tired of the non issue, doesn't affect me attitude. It most certainly affects you. I know a lot of boomers only shoot 100rnds a year. Good for you. I shoot 4 to 500 rnds each session. When I have to buy brass next time, there may not be any for you to buy when it comes time to sight in the deer rifle.
How the **** is loosing available cheap ammo to practice with not an issue?!?!
It affects me but there is nothing I can do at this point Tuna. I have not purchased a round of Ammo since Feb of 2019. I've tried to out wait this panic, but it's not going to happen. This is it. I was shooting 10k to 20k rounds a year before this happened. I've shot less than 300 rounds since. It sucks, but I guess it is what it is.
I'm probably going to offload everything I have except my bug out firearms. I make almost 6 figures a year and cannot afford to shoot anymore. You interested in some guns? Cause I simply cannot afford to feed them anymore.
I mostly shoot what I can afford, and that means handguns mostly, but of course there is the occasional urge. The rate things are going, guns and ammo will be tomorrows currency.

I do a lot of planning in buying my guns, the thought of selling any is like selling my kids.

holy shit, I thought I was the only one. I have a couple of gun safes with stuff laying on stuff and it hurts to get rid of stuff I'm only meh about lol.
I hope the Romanians, Czechs, Ukrainians, et al, crank up the plants. I've been thinking since the last ammo shortage of going all "War Dogs" and getting myself an import license and a warehouse and flying East and making some deals.

It's always a possibility that some of the other European countries will step up to fill that void. We can always hope at least. Some may see this as a viable market to up their production and what they are exporting.I hope the Romanians, Czechs, Ukrainians, et al, crank up the plants.
