I see now on AmmoSeek there is about 4 pages of 9mm ammo for sale. The prices arent real good at around .60 a round but at least there is some ammo coming back.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

I made the tour of my usual ammo haunts over the weekend. ALL shelves were empty. Zero. Same for reloading components, bullets, powder, primers.

I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.

Last Friday and again today I waited in line at the local Academy store. On Friday they received a large shipment and they still had 3 boxes of what I wanted, .38 special, to get some rounds through my new SS. Guys were leaving with bricks of .223 and just in front of me( I was about50-60 back from the front) a guy got his brick? of 7.62x39. Today I got two more boxes of .38 and a box of 325 Automatch. They get, or are supposed to get, ammo in on m-w-f. Maybe this means things are loosening up.

Did an inventory of my stuff, all good for quite some time on cartridge and black powder supplies. Plus still have lots of factory ammo so a steady supply of brass for reloading.

My LGS shelves look like when they were getting the shop set up before they put any thing on the shelves. Never seen that shop so empty of guns in stock and so little ammo and reloading components. They tried to buy 22 LR ammo from me. I don't have enough to be selling any except to a friend that may be out of ammo. I will do my what I can to help friends have some to shoot but will have to draw the line some where if things don't get better.

Academy seems like the place to go. The closed one is a few hours from me though.

I know most here are set pretty good. I do know that when RR got into handloading, that fella did NOT mess around! He done bought!
Good for you RR, you saw the plan.
