Shortages Rant

[bsekf]

WTH is going on? Haven't had reloading supplies in 3 years, can't even buy a mold to cast bullets, Chicken shortage and price is going up. New car shortage... no computer chips. Restaurants can't reopen.... no help. This isn't caused by a ship stuck in a canal for a week!

Are we being played????? Just like the Covid BS. The big players have found out just how easy it is to control the "huddled masses". We are in deep trouble!

Wake up America! or there isn't going to be an America to wake up in.

You got it in a Nut Shell

 

[chop house]

in the last couple of years i purposely rotated to shooting smaller caliber stuff... shoot more, more fun, less expense.... BUT some of the benefits go out the window with primer prices suddenly becoming a major 'component' of cost....

Yep big gov is IN CHARGE

Factory ammo is getting a little easier to find and I have only been shooting what I can find and saving my stuff just like the last three times this has happened.... New gun buyers , which just keeps setting records month after month combined with the world and all busness shut down for a year because of covid are major factors.... I normally would shoot pistols twice a week at least combined with some sort of rifle.... I shot my 9mm yesterday a whopping 10 times and that's 10 more than I have in the last 6 months.... Because of still training with .22 I was hitting the bull or very close and that's good enough for me right now...

I only shoot glock pistols anymore and when this crap happened I picked up a glock 44 in .22 because it is a full size clone of a glock 19 which I carry daily....same trigger pull etc... Because of that I have been able to stay on top of the basics but shooting .22 instead of 9mm... I have made one brick last a very long time and a box of 9mm last because I only shoot a few to stay used to the larger boom and recoil... This also applies to my rifle shooting becouse I have bought rimfire clones in the past that match as close as I could for them also... .22 is hard to find also but most of us have plenty to play with... Save you stuff and go another route guys , something is better than nothing...

PS... To all you glock guys I have had the Glock 44 for awhile now and have put ALOT of rounds through it with zero problems and it's accurate... The last 4 outings I haven't cleaned it and it's filthy and running flawless still... Will clean it up finally before going out again.... It's been fun and for $350 I have been very happy with it... There's some bad reviews but I can't say anything bad about mine.... To me people are alot faster to post a bad review instead of a good one , welcome to the internet... Everything I have read bad I have done with mine with zero malfunction and have shot every weight and brand of decent ammo through it... Just like any gun I own I don't shoot crap ammo through them and expect anything.... My main Shooting the last year and a half has been skeet...

Have a great day and get out and shoot...

Crazy times in the neighborhood,, what do you think it’s going to look like in another year?

 

[Retired Grunt]

I buy it when I find it, both online and locally. I am sticking to shooting one caliber.

Same experience the wife has had with hers.

Our Trucks are being stored until the semiconductor supply catches up to demand. We are currently on layoff with another projected for late June. We have Trucks stored at other lots in So. Indiana as well.

Stockpile of Unfinished Ford Super Duty Pickups Missing Chips Is Now Visible from Space

Notice how new trucks are getting harder and harder to find? Well, here's why.

I live in Southern Indiana and I see these trucks parked in several locations. Hundreds of them.

Tie a knot and hang on!

Rapid inflation is HERE now!

Taxes going through the roof!

This time a year from now, things are going to be very different!

This is the left's!"RESET". Marxists rule by one thing, FEAR to gain and keep Control. Spelled " FAKE PANDEMIC". Gun stores go away, no product, no more öammo. Never forget they are in it for the long run, which may be pretty short.So, I am going to shoot all the matchs9, and burn up all the ammo while I can.

Fact #1: Things always change.

Fact #2: Things rarely change for the better.

Fact #3: A good family, a good dog, a few good rifles, a few good fishing poles, and a broken television go a long way to mitigate some of the negatives change brings.

Truth. Shut that waste of time off.

I share your frustrations on this topic, but I did just buy 1 pound of 4831sc ($29.97) 2 boxes of 5.56 (11.97 a box) 2 boxes of 38 special ($16.97 a box) and 8 lbs of H4350 ($200) at my LGS this weekend. I’m hopefully but not fully convinced that it is coming back. I hope you find some luck in whatever you are looking for!
