No More Lake City Ammo as per Biden

Is there no other manufactures out there? Would think someone is saying thank you Mr. Biden for cutting out the coupation, now we gear up 24/7 and crank out tons and tons for ammo. Maybe even get the price down.

That is what I would think, other manufacturers pick up the slack and capitalize, UNLESS there is some other reason why they would not be able to produce this in their plants.

Next they'll target imports from korea which will wipe out PMC xtac. Here's a couple places that still have it in stock.

There were a couple interviews with federal regarding the ammo shortage over the past 2 years, and they have repeatedly said they are operating at 100% capacity, they can't go any faster. Opening new plants is costly and high risk, especially when the future is not clear when biden and his cronies swear they're banning guns, and now seem to be targeting ammo.

There's probably condos on most of them.

My guess is PSA and Eastern Europe will reap the rewards, but it takes time.

This bastard is pretty good at getting me to spend money though.

Saying that Biden is ordering no sales of anything is completely wrong. Dopey Joe doesn't even know what Lake City is.

Did he even know that he was riding a bicycle when he fell over?

The Winchester branded Lake City ammo is like $100 more a case than any comparable stuff these days.

When it was run by Federal, it was one of the cheapest.
