[QUOTE="espringers, post: 323851, member: 816"] a part of me still wants to guess its ourselves. backpedal about 10-12 years or so prior to gun/ammo scares that first came about when obama was prez and briefly held both houses. at least that's when i think it first happened. prior to that or whenever the fuck it was, nobody had a concern about ever being able to find ammo. so, nobody felt the need to hoard. we all went down to the local hardware store and bought what we needed when we needed it. since whenever this dirty cycle began, best i can tell, a much higher % of gun folk in this country still buy more than they need whenever they get the chance. assuming the supply chain was relatively in sync with the demand prior to this cycle, i would guess that increased % of folks buying whatever they can whenever they can... even if its 15% (i think its probably more)... threw things out of whack. when i see or hear of many people's ammo stashes and those same folks complaining about how there is no ammo to be found, i can't help but shake my head a bit. like, hey man! look in the mirror maybe. frankly, i am a bit guilty of this myself. other than fear, i've got no business having the amount of ammo i currently do. most i've ever had in my life by far. why? cause i can afford it now is one thing. but, the other, is i buy ammo for my calibers when i see it.
