Staying tuned to the thread for other commentary.

The 9mm they currently have for 13.99 isn*t a bad price if you need a few, but it*s on sale not their regular price.

What*s the difference according to you if they*re still around or not if you never buy anything there?

Point was the shelves were full, last couple times they got cleaned out.

Panic preppers have always been the problem.

Now, if they were real preppers, they wouldn't have panicked in the first place, would they?

I haven't noticed ammo prices going up recently but then again I haven't been shopping for ammo lately. I'm happy with my stock levels and now just buy ammo as I go out to shoot.

I have I stocked up a but before the rise but as often as I shoot I'll burn through it fairly fast. I basically had to lower the number of rounds I run each trip .

My wife does some of the receiving at the store. Prices were leveling out and some even coming down a bit...until Isreal happened. We are seeing a cost increase which will lead to a price increase in due time.
