  If you were willing to gamble a little and willing to wait until June/July you could double or triple the amount of .22 LR you had.   Eventually people will reach a point where they can only hoard so much and once we reach that point you will see it back in stores and online.  That will probably happen by June or July so if you sold off 5-10k 22lr you could probably turn it into 15-20k when it's back in stock everywhere.

"John Diaz, Seattles Police Chief,  wasn’t pleased with the turn of events stating “I’d prefer they wouldn’t sell them,” but admitted it’s perfectly legal for private individuals to buy and sell guns, FOR NOW. Mayor Mike McGinn said at a news conference the private transactions are a loophole that needs to be closed. “There’s no background checks, and some (guns) could be exchanged on the streets that shouldn’t be in circulation.”"     Proof the government HATES competition.

  Unless Wal-Mart is across the street 30 cents wouldn't be worth my time.  Some people place very little value on their own time.

If you wish hard enough, on a falling star, they might personally call you and tell you each time a new bullet gets its wings!   C'mon dude, really?  These companies aren't just sitting around with their thumbs up their butts.[/quote] Oh sorry I didn't read the rule that says we are only allowed happy thoughts and rants are not allowd. I am sorry to have wasted your disk space with a gripe.

[quote name="Rowdy" post="897460" timestamp="1359312458"]If you had an ammo factory would you be running it 24/7? Yeah, they are too. If they don't ship it they don't get paid.[/quote] I would let everyone know we were working our asses off for them...

I don't expect for them to build new facilities or hire a thousands of employees.   Just let us know they are doing what they can to get stuff out the door.  Hell an occasional note on Facebook like "Hey we just sent out another 500,000 cases" would let us know that stuff is flowing to the consumer.   Right now we don't know if they are still running just 8x5 or are they running extra shifts to meet demand.

  As long as people are gouging and there are dumb asses willing to pay the price it is going to make it difficult for those of us who choose not to participate in the panic to buy what we need.

This is what I use on a concrete floor.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIIw3Vw-wyc   If you can't access under the floor look for toggle bolts and washers that are at least 1/2" to 3/4" in diameter.

It would make me feel better if companies like CCI, Winchester, Hornady, etc would at least acknowledge that there is a huge demand and they are stepping up production to meet demand and that they are not going to use this as an excuse to creep prices up.   If you visit many of these companies websites as as if nothing is going on.  It would be comforting (not to mention it would dispel some conspiracy nuts) to know that they are shipping product...   After a visit to Sportsman's Warehouse today it's rather depressing.  I've never seen shelves so bare.  It's bad when they are almost completely out of reloading manuals not to mention primers, powder, and bullets.  I'm a little pissed off that I spent a lot of money on gear to start reloading and now I can't find powder, primers, and bullets. 

"YOU TOUCHSCREEN ADDICTED IDIOTS."   So this is written by the type of guy who runs around telling us how great his generation was and that they were all smart and the following generations are bunch of lazy stupid morons,  He forgets that it's his generation that raised the "Touchscreen Addicted Idiots" so he should take part in the responsibility.  He also seems to forget that it's our generation and future generations will be tasked with paying the price for their short sighted actions of today.

    I agree 100%.   Parents must be proactive in preventing accidental deaths. I know of at least two children in the last 6-8 months in this area who were killed by completely irresponsible adults.  In both cases a loaded, chambered, gun was left where a child (under 4) was able pick up the gun and shoot them selves.   Had these adults been responsible these children would still be alive.    The sad thing is that neither adult responsible for their gun were charged in these deaths as they should be.

"Price: $40.00 NOW $38.00 "   KInd of nice to see when everyone is moving their prices the other direction.

Looks like a cook idea on paper but I could see this easily being labeled as a cult.

"Antique weapons"   How old does a gun have to be to be considered an antique?

Personally I don't have a problem with having everyone lock up their guns when not in use. Why would anyone not want for someone to steal their guns?

LOL one belt fed rifle?  How many people are dropping $8600 on a TNW M3HB?

" Feinstein said that the bill’s fate will rest heavily on public pressure."   This is the key and she knows it...   Everyone needs to keep up the pressure on their elected officials.

It would never work because there is always a greedy bastard that will use it as a chance to make a buck.

Outside of MSNBC and CNN has anyone seen large numbers of people who support gun control?  I've seen a lot of stories online on sites where you can leave comments directly on the site or through Farcebook and comments that are anti-gun are just not there.  I don't see large numbers of anti-gun people showing up at pro-gun functions.  Just like this video where the majority of the people there seem to be pro-gun at a an anti-gun event.   Am I just completely missing something or is the support for our 2nd Amendment rights really that much stronger than what the media is showing?

We need more of this.....

  They are kind of like a high capacity revolver. :)

Probably trade them in.  I picked up a Glock 22 at GT Distributors (well my wife picked it up for Valentines Day) in the $300-350 with 3 15 round mags.  The slide has wear on it from going in and out of the holster but that was fine because I use it as my CCW gun and I don't have to worry about it getting dinged up from daily handling.

Bill Clinton has recently said that Barry needs to back off of gun control.  He realizes that the 94' AWB lead to the backlash in the 96' midterms elections.  

I know several people who worked at the VW plant and they all say that the Germans are complete jerks.  They say that most of them have a "I am better than you lowly American" attitude.

  Good luck in getting them.   They waited almost a month before the let me know that my order was not going to ship.   I didn't question them earlier because they said up front it would be 2-3 weeks before shipping because of their work load.
