    Why is raising prices during a shortage evil? If everyone thinks CTD is crazy, then they will still have that ammo when this is over. If some crazy rich guy wants to buy it, let him.

    I found a source for N95 masks for about $3 each. They are selling on eBay for $20-30 each. Why would I be evil to turn a profit? My source is public and anyone with some google skills could find them and buy them. If you would rather go to eBay and pay $30, why is that gouging?

    I just checked TargetSportsUSA and SportsmansGuide. Not a single round of 9mm between them, not even expensive personal defense ammo. Rich guys and desperate people are going to find ammo somewhere.

    I may just flip the case I have on backorder with sportsmansguide.

    Where did I say evil? Free market capitalism is a two way street, they are free do whatever they want with their prices and the consumer is free to call them turds.

    I'm glad prices weren't this crazy in 2009, but I do feel bad for folks looking to protect themselves now and having to pay high prices to do it. I remember only having a few boxes of ammo and wondering how I was going to practice and be accurate.

    Funny how guys were saying this after CTD did the same thing with ammo and mag prices...after the village idiot was elected (2008-2009), re-elected plus Sandy hook school shooting (2012-2013), 2016 election run up. I guess most forget after a couple of years.

    Yes, they were this crazy. I found a bunch of 380 ammo from when I had one. Put the ammo on GB and got $165/box for the HP stuff.

    Yep.. I bought a lot of S&B 00buck and various other calibers, even bought a bunch of 12GA tracers.
    Its a shame companies get this way.
