Ammo Shortage

[jwmscout]

Does anyone know the real reason why there is such a shortage on all hand gun ammo? This cannot all be blamed on Obama. I just cant get FMJ .380's to use for practice.

1. the suppliers are busy supplying the military.
2. obama scare.
3. metal shortage due to rebuilding iraq.
4. metal shortage due to chaina buying up everything.
5. the ammo suppliers short sheeting the market to drive prices up.

Did I miss any?

Alot of people ran out and bought pistols when obama was electd . Most bought small 380 's therefore that caliber is in sorter supply .

Yeah, .380, .45 ACP and 9mm Luger seem to be in the highest demand right now, everyone seems to be snatching those calibers up like nobody's business. I can't even get cheap plinking ammo for my .45 anymore.

Yup I will take them off your hands for you if we can hook up. Are you near Rt. 402? I live just off 402 in Pike County. Maybe we can hook up sometime in the afternoon if that is OK with you. I can also get onto Rt. 84 with no problem if you are futher west of me.
