At my local shop they had 1 box limit per day on 9mm and I think 2 box on the rest.

A neighbor bought a new duty gun. He could buy any duty style pistol in 9mm or 40 and chose a Smith in 9mm... Because he liked the caliber. :roll: He has a lot more 40 on hand, but the LGS sold him two white boxes of winchester practice ball and a box of Gold Dot duty ammo with the gun... SOLD.

When I bought my last EDC the gave me 100 rounds... But... :?

My plan is to clean out the rest of the large pistol primers and Unique powder at the hardware store this week.

I have quite a bit of both, but
ifn' the opportunity arose and both were of a reasonable price I'd grab a little more. :D

No online primer drops in about a week on the Reloading discord. But this morning Brownells had LRP, LPP, and SRP. Gone lickety split, of course. Pretty hard to find any primers locally.

Yeah, it's as bad as I've ever seen it. We stopped at our LGS to sell some guns. Walked in the door and my jaw dropped. The number of guns on display was about 20% of what it was last January. Entire racks and display cases with no guns at all. No ammo for sale. The owner told us that in all his years in the gun business, this is the worst he's seen. He was happy to buy the guns from us. Gave us good prices, too. If you plan to sell off some guns, now is the time to do it.
