"I got mine, now you get yours." Just joking, of course. I had a boss that used that line on his employees at a staff meeting. I made my decision then to bail out at the first opportunity. After 22 years of retirement, I have never looked back. Hunt, Fish, Die.

During one of the past ammo 'emergencies' - during the "O" administration, I think? - CCI was making 2.4million rds of .22LR per day and still couldn't begin to keep up. I've never forgotten that number. Bricks of .22LR were up over $50ea for a while and it seems that's what they're at here in AK now. What a crazy world.

Obama was the best thing to happened to the firearm industry in the past 50-years. I went out and dropped $1500 on an AR thinking I would flip it six months later for big bucks. LOL. Six months later the market was flooded with AR’s and I could t give it away.

Was in a local gun shop this PM and the guys behind the counter where blaming it on George Soros. I tried to explain that Soros had nothing to do with it but they were convinced.

You sure can now Setter Man! I paid $1100 for my Colt LE6920 and I see them advertised for $2500 up here now.

Sure, new. But try to get $1100 for a used one or better yet, try to use it for trade toward something else. I’ve got an LMT Defender 90, paid $1500. Check out the prices for the used ones. You’ll find plenty to look through, all unsold.

JMO that the first part of Mr. Vanderbrink's video sounds a little too nasty for a company that should be sensitive to the market and presumably interested in customers' feedback whether right or wrong. I wonder if his Customer Service and/or Marketing people reviewed the video before it was released? Well anyway, with a significant increase in shooters, one major US company out of the ammo biz for months now, and uncertainties about the future I for one am not surprised at shortages and hoarding. Regarding shotgun ammo and primers, all this may not be a big deal for a chap who shoots at one or two events a year and pops a few caps while hunting small game or at grouse camp or wherever, but it’s a major problem for fellas that shoot clays every week or so at their local club or course. Do the math at 100 to 150 rounds average per week. Net, I and most of my shooting friends have been and are buying what shotgun loading components and shells we could/can find but without paying big premiums.
