Don’t blame Biden. He’s a senile old fool who can’t tell his wife from his sister or even remember the last time he took a good shite. He’s nothing more than a doddering old fool. Instead Blame (1) the idiots who elected him and (2) the real powers behind the scenes who are really in charge.

I have .22LR in my closet that I paid $0.04 / round for. Bought it in 2019 or 2020, I think.

Bro, you need to line up some homeless and usher them in one by one.

Gunbroker.com has all the 9mm you need in various loads. I just purchased a bunch of 147 grain hollow point for less than $1 each. They even have Black Tallon listed but it’s way expensive.

After the 22 ammo shortage a few years ago I just started randomly buying ammo for every gun I own when I saw it on sale. I managed to stockpile a decent amount over several years so I haven't had to buy any during the Covid crap.

This has been my strategy too. My only regret is that I didn't buy more.

Yep. And it was selling like hot cakes. Just being able to find 9mm is next to impossible nowadays.



Sounds like people who are scared of the internet

I'm surprised more people don't reload. It used to be a skill every serious shooter spent lots of time on now outside of my friends that are also comp shooters people look at me like I have three heads when I mention it.

That’s not a bad price, but I got 10,000 rounds for less than half that price per round when I searched Nashville Armslist.

For guns I like Armslist and ar15.com equipment exchange. Bayou Shooter used to be good 10 years ago, no idea if it still is.

You frickers were so worried about them regulating your guns, you forgot to keep them from regulating your bullets.

You got killed on 9mm prices. You can pick up online for 55 cents a round easily.

Got our invites to Industry Range Day this week. PALLETS of ammo dropped every 50 feet and can shoot everything from a .22 to fully auto .223 for free. Such a crazy experience. Before the ATF declared the Sol Invictus semi auto shotgun illegal in 2019 we got to shoot the full auto version there. 25 drum of 12ga was completely insane.

(The event & SHOT are geared towards everyone from Law Enforcement to your local dealer to overseas buyers.)

Sixty dollars for 50 rounds of 9mm? Jesus.

Primers are the tricky part now. I have bullets, brass and powder.

My local Walmart had 2 boxes of .22 LR in stock yesterday. I bought them both. 325 rounds per box for $17.97 each. With tax I paid $39 and some change for 650 rounds. I was grinning like a little dork all the way to my truck.

But yeah, prices suck everywhere but WM and Academy. I bought a 150 round box of 5.56 for $90 and 50 round box of .45 for $50 a couple of weeks ago. This is crazy.

Thread hijack. Did you work there? I did in Lynchburg back in the late 80s early 90s.

Here's ammo for about half of what you paid. Steel 9mm for 50c rnd and brass for 67c.

LINK

38 special and 22lr are still pretty insane though.
