Ammo Shortage 2013

[Lexicon Devil]

Seriously... I just want 1 (one) box of bulk .22lr ammo to go plinking with, but I absolutely refuse to get gouged. I saw someone selling what should be a $12 box of 525rnds for $65 in the marketplace. Blah blah blah capitalism yadda yadda yadda supply vs demand bing bang boom. Buying & flipping at gouge prices is lame. Yes, I know: "Don't like it, don't buy it." Just airing out some frustration here.

Unfortunately this is also happening here on Calguns.net
there's some calguns members who are gouging on ammo prices and also on Firearm PPT . I believe Calguns needs to Fined those who are braking the Rules, and Banned them from Calguns.net

Don't you Guy's think so ?

You sound Like DiFi, this is liberal mentality. Everybody should get there fair share, or I don't like it so lets get the Government to ban it. If you didn't have the foresight to be prepared than thats your problem. Want to find ammo go to walmart with the flippers in the AM. Seriously I'm tired of everyone complaining about the ammo shortage and how they can't go to the range. Ammo is out there you just have to work to find it. I myself was prepared. I have been packing the shelves for years, and when I decide to unload some ammo you better beleive I'm going to sell it at market price. That's the way a free market works.

A 525 rd brick has not been $12 for a long time.

I'm Not a Liberal,
I just tired of these Clowns taking advantage of other Good Calguns members.
That's all.
By the way I'm a Republican.
Just so you know..

If I don't like the price I just move on..

Same, and like many I kick myself for not making one last purchase. For some reason I fear ammo prices will never return to what they once were (similar to gas). Before I go shooting I calculate the cost at todays rates where as before I would just go & restock the next day. It is a free market, it would be nice to see the people refrain from purchasing at such a price tag, but cost of ammo doesn't discourage everyone.
