Vista Outdoor companies donating ammo to Ukraine

Wonder how many days it took to crank out that million rounds for ukraine? Its not like they had to stop production more than a couple shifts. Theyre still cranking out the 9mm and 223. If you cant get primers its time to practice the pistol
 
Another piece of FACTUAL Info ; Build back better ( aka STUPIDLY ) cut Military small arms munitions Drastically with a broad swipe of 30-50% budget cuts !.

Depending on whom one ask ,abandoning $100 BILLION of Military armament ,DIDN'T do surplus sales any good . Not only small arms and tanks aircraft and nearly everything else but don't forget those

Hundreds of CONTAINERS filled with AMMUNITION !!!. So primer production nor Ammunition ,ISN'T going to our Military !. So WHERE IS IT GOING ???.

Military ammo doesnt come from the consumer plants anyway it comes from whoever has the military contracts at the places like lake city. Winchester currently has the contract. They won it from northrop grumman in 2020. All components are made on site

From The Lewiston Morning Trubune, 13 March 2022, Lewiston, Idaho:

Ammunition manufactured in Lewiston is on its way to Ukraine. CCI and Speer in Lewiston, along with Remington and Federal Ammunition, are donating a total of a million rounds of ammunition to the Ukraine armed forces, according to a news release from Vista Outdoor.

All of the bullet-manufacturing companies are part of Vista Outdoor’s sporting products segment.

Ukraine’s military has been a customer of Federal, CCI and Speer for years and the donation is intended to meet the call of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for more ammunition, according to the news release.

“The war in Ukraine has displaced millions of citizens and exposed average people to the horrors of war,” said Jason Vanderbrink, president of Remington, CCI, Speer and Federal Ammunition, in the news release.

“Supporting the relief effort is a crucial element of the global response and we are proud to do our part,” he said.

“It underscores how critical the Second Amendment is in America and highlights the importance of the ability of American manufacturers to supply our allies with ammunition,” Vanderbrink continued. “We have long supported Ukrainian armed forces and we will continue to do so in this global cause to unite for democracy.”

And we are paying for all of it with their price increases.
