Shelfs flush where I live. Having said that, I have enough birdshot for trap league to last me two years. As such, I am not worried about six to 12 month supply interruptions.
Oh, poop -- someone else trying to start more panic buying. C'mon now, guys please stop ... just stop. Even if HRC is elected and we lose the Senate, it's gonna take 'em a couple months past January 21st to get the bad stuff rolling ... Can we please wait until then?

You should have been buying ammo months ago. After last election I sat here and listened to people complaining about hoarders endlessly. Anyone that had ammo was a hoarder and contributed to the panic. The truth is, if you started buying ammo six months out you contributed nothing to the panic, if you plan on shooting the ammo you were not hoarding, you were preparing. I don't understand waking up now and realizing there is an election in a couple of weeks that is probably 50/50 on there being a panic. All I can say is "Duh". I'm good for two years if I don't buy another round. Ammo has been cheap and plentiful. There was never a better time to buy it. You should have taken the opportunity. I will have less sympathy this time then I did in 2012 and I did not have a lot then.
"Should" is a manifestation of the intellectual disease, the pretense that one's aesthetic preferences somehow override reality.

So, if there is bad news on the horizon that is 3 months out, we should wait until the last few days to react? That seems silly. IF you believe ammo will become scarce or that prices will jump (or both) then now is the time to prepare. If you don't think anything will change then don't stock up. All I can say is that I doubt ammo prices will go down from the present day prices so if you have spare cash and shoot a lot then now is the time to get a ahead of the game, not January 22nd.
