Run on ammunition:
When will this school shooting thing blow over. There has been several shootings over the years and not one of them has had this type of effect on gun and ammunition sales.
So why this one and not the others.
I went to Academy to look for some 223 for my Winchester model 70. And of course none to be found. She said call at about 7:00 AM and we can tell you if a truck came in that morning. She also said at least 40 to 45 people line up for every truck that comes in, so get their early.
To my astonishment this run is still going on. I can see a guy building up a supply of a few 100 or so, but there can’t be that many people with 223’s. I can’t shoot my Winchester for fear I can not replace the ones I shoot.
And why is this run only on cretin size of ammunition and not others. It seems to be on only 223, 308, 9 mm and 22’s the others appear to be unaffected.
If this continues for the rest of the year I may sell my 223 and get a 22-250, at least you can get ammunition for it.
