let me edumicate ya forget economics ill give it to ya in a nut shell GREED thats all supply and demand b.s. heres how it goes bill has a gun store and gets 1000 rounds of .22 ammo in but hes a fair guy and sells it at a modest markup enough to make a nice profit without screwing anyone along comes hannibal lecchter he buys the 1000 rounds for say 100.00 he then turns around and sells it for 500.00 dollars because he is what you guessed it so bill finds this out and then bill says the hell with that and guess what ? bill then sells the next shipment of a 1000 rounds for 550.00 ya see the corrilation here bill in being honest in the first place sold his ammo at a fair price and got burned so what is bill to do well bill wil go with the flow and follow everybody else and be GREEDY because althogh bill is a nice guy and is not greedy why should bill play by the rules and not make money too ? so you see its all based on greed thats what these mental patients go to 4 years of college for economics for just remember its all GREED and youll be fine

Folks, do not forget the Oath Keepers (www.oathkeepers.org)! All of us, who have sworn an oath to protect and defend our Constitution – and not the current or any other Commander-in-Chief – will do so, whether on active duty or nor (our oaths do not expire) – oaths that were made on our personal honor. The 545 responsible are at real risk, whether they acknowledge this or not, if they violate, or continue to violate, THEIR oaths. Just who provides THEIR personal protection? You guessed it! Oath Keepers!
Any Second Revolution, should such be deemed deemed necessary, could be VERY short-lived!

At this point, it doesn’t matter what the “government” does.
All total, there are about 800,000 civilian LE including DHS, TSA, and state and local.
There are at least 3 million Oathkeepers…I’ll take those odds.
We learned how to defeat these folks in the sandbox.
Remember, they respond, they do not create.
The libs used a tactic called swatting against us last year.
This time, swatting creates targets for the 0317′s
We can cut off their food, fuel, and toilet paper with a few well placed wrecks. They only have a 2 day supply.
Think about no toilet paper in Baltimore….woah.
Use your brain, be a weapon, not a target.
My friends found the best way to find IED’s was to tie Habib to the hood of the truck. He always knew where the crap was going to happen.

Screw the Goverment I am ready tor war These people couldn’t run a whore house more less our Goverment I am tired of all this Bull Shit about what we might do if the DC crowd does something. They have been doing it to us the people since the Civil war and really got crank up when WoodrowWilson took office They have all had there hand up our ass And now is no different Wake the Fuck up America

If the economy collapses there will be martial law declared. The governement will not go out of business, if nothing else survives, they will..and if anyone stands in their way they will be eliminated by whatever means, this is a historical fact. However, I don’t see the people surrendering their guns, ammunition or food to the government which will make for interesting times.

Brian, if they were ever so foolish as to attempt to ban firearms their price would skyrocket along with ammo. And that action would most certainly be a catalyist for civil war and the breakup of our Country. East/West coasts would make up separate Countries and the large bulk of the Midwest would continue to follow our Constitution.
Is this what they want?

There is only one flaw with the thinking of this article, as evidenced in Argentina when their economy collapsed in 2001: The government could ban all weapon possession, rendering the possession of .22 ammo worthless. That is exactly what happened in Argentina. If the economy collapses, politicians aren’t just going to sit on their hands; they will grab more power to control.

I re-load my hand gun ammunition, 9mm, 40 S&W and 45 ACP, the ammo shortage has had no effect on me, I have enough primers and powder to last me for several years, until we can out last Obama and the democrats. I tried to get some of my friends into re-loading several years ago, but they did not as the price of 9mm was “so cheap” it was not worth their time. Now they have none and want me to make it for them. Their lack of planning and foresight is not my concern, I have cut back the number of rounds I train with, but I will not sell it or make it for anyone.

Where am I ? Surely not the America I know. Economics makes no sense public officials make no sense and most of all we the people make no sense. For the love of money gas prices are too high minimum wage is too low and the common or (not so common) 22 L.R. Is non existent . We fool ourselves electing the lessor of two evils. Is that not all evil. Laying aside the fact that even when this appeared to be a free nation freedom cost too damn much. Moreso this is our reality? Or is this a nightmare. Just don’t buy, don’t go to work ,don’t pay taxes,don’t make house notes, don’t pay credit cards, please don’t send your children to these unprotected schools, and don’t respond to these people that are not of,by or for the people. And please next time you present a dark complected man as a leader let him have grown up in Chicago instead of one who doesn’t know where he is from himself.

I own several antique guns which use ammo that is no longer manufactured. Because of this, years ago, I bought a reloading press and taught myself how to reload.

Now, with the price of ammo going through the roof, I’m making some spending money on the side reloading shell casings for my buddies using that same old reloading press. Who knew reloading could be so lucrative? I certainly didn’t when I started!

Anyway, I guess the point I’m trying to make here is, with sky-high ammo prices now becoming commonplace, it is actually quite cost effective to reload your ammo. And, you can always let your inner Capitalist loose and make a few extra bucks on the side by charging for your services.

Just my two slugs worth.

Cheers!

Theres this Ralph’s Manager that has 800 rounds of 9mm ammo.He assumes I have more and I do.I haven’t told him that,but he asks me to give him 100 rounds of 9mm practice ammo.The reason being is ammo is so expensive now and he doesn’t want to go through his 800 rounds.This man wants it with nothing in return.He’s crazy and he is Jewish.I asked him what religion he was and he said Jewish.If he offered me at the price I paid for it before all this ammo shortage I would sell it to him for that.Than I realized is this even legal to do.And this dude is not worth going to jail for as he has a big mouth and if the wrong ears hear it.If he was a good friend I would just give it to him.End of story.When Obama was elected in 2008 the same thing happened.All the firearms at the local gun store we’re pretty much sold and you had to wait to get one.The ammo in popular calibers was sold out.Now its the same but looks like the ammo and firearms have gone even faster.You have to go to a gun show with a wad of cash to buy ammo and get there early.This will all pass like it did before so no worries here.

The reason why ammo is so high is because the press have been telling the taxpayers that they are buying ammo for us. I heard in the neighborhood of 1.6 billion rounds well don’t forget its our money that they are using so its our ammo and we can get it anytime w want, We know DHS has it Janet Napolitano is the Head of the agency so just email her and tell her how much ammo you need and she should send it to you because it is yours. I have already contacted her and told her what I needed , told her she used my taxpayer money , so its already paid for by me and send it to me UPS ASAP. She is obligated to do that as she works for me , Iam the one that gave her the money and dont want to hear any excuses. If she doesn’t when we come to Washington in a couple of months or even sooner , because of the way the Obama administration is running things , you both lie too much . We wont be coming empty handed either and last count there will be about a million of us to clean out Washington DC . Everyone will be fired including yourself , as you have done a horrible job on enforcing immigration control , I even heard that ICE one of your departments is suing both yourself and Obama for not allowing them to do their job in enforcing immigration control. Obama told you to not follow the law , as when he took the oath is obligated to do according to the Constitution , he is being impeached so send me the ammo now rather then wait for me to come and get it in person.

I used to give ammo to friends and coworkers. I also thought Preppers or shooters with 20,000rds of .22lr were crazy…now,I’m envious. I stood next to man looking at ammo at an Academy sporting goods in Texas. He bristled when I reached for a box of 30/30 in front of me..him? I blame the Dems and their sneaky Cause and Effect tactics. They know they can cause panic buying and shortages by pushing for gun bans.

I remember a story that I believe is true. Germany, the Weimar Republic. At a time when a loaf of bead was going for a wheel barrel full of 100,000 Mark notes, A man bought a fancy restraunt for a 50 Mark gold coin.
I was told it was true.
