Cute story, but it is not happening on a scale large enough to create a shortage that does not exist. Are these old men spending their SS checks to hoard ammo they don't even own guns for?
When I say a shortage does not exist I mean if we had all just purchased the same amount that we had pre covid/election panic there would be no shortage.
Our military is not in a shooting war with any one and how many of the few instances of a firefight involved a 9mm pistol? So that in itself should create a surplus.
The ammo/componet manufactures have not reduced or shut down production, but have increased to take advantage of panic buying to line their pockets with money from stupid people.
I do hope that we retain a senate majority so that joe's most perverse gun legislation will never become law. Then the supply and demand will then become normal and the hoarders and resellers will be left with their over priced goods. The times of ammo shortages have been listed here many times and every time it returns to normal. So to those who are so proud of scavaging a 1,000 primers for a $100.00 to put away in the back of the safe for a rainy day I hope you like eating them. If the primers are that precious you are not going to have a gun to use them in.
