    Hoarding or What ?

    Why is it that we have these men who line up every morning at all Wal-Mart store's and rush to the Ammo section and hoard up all the ammo.It never fail's.Some say it's a black market seller or Swap meet idiot's.Who is doing this ? There is no shortage but to me imo these are not good gun owner's or even good law abiding folk's...It's kinda Disturbing to say the least...

    Sounds like both a bit of jealously and the need to wake up earlier in the day.

    Ammo is no different than any other commodity...first come, first served.

    Not to mention that this is a topic that has been more than beaten to death here.
    True wealth is time. Time to enjoy life.

    Life's journey is not to arrive safely in a well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "holy schit...what a ride"!!

      Some are hording.
      Some are flipping.
      Some people just like the high of getting something everyone else is looking for.

        I keep hearing that WM limits customers to 3 boxes. Everybody on CG got all excited and cursed WM for this rule.
        Sounds like the 3 box limit is the answer to the ammo hoarders.
        I work for a living. I do not have time to hang out at WM every morning waiting for the ammo to show up.

              Maybe that is how the scalpers see it, this is their job and the people who are buying from them are paying that little extra for the convenience.

                      Hmmm, never had much of a problem as of late. And all the WM's I've been to have done away with that 3/box limit save for .22 ammo.....

                        This subject has been beaten to death a million times over.

                        The line of people clearing any trace of 22LR at Walmart is basic economics and free market enterprise. That's life. Welcome to Calguns.

                          Some people are determined to end youth and rimfire shooting programs. They are doing a good job of it, and making money at the same time. A win-win for them. Mark

                            PIMP stands for Positive Intellectual Motivated Person
