As if it wasn't hard enough to find as it is.

As fast as these manufacturers are pumping this out there's going to be some QC concerns.

Hash, as true as that may be, I'm with KR here.

Ammo manufacturers are in panic mode right now. This was bound to happen and I don't really blame them for it. They couldn't have foreseen the Newtown fiasco.
