I agree with the gunshops raising prices on current stock in order to replace, if they do not cover replacement cost they will lose money and go out of buisness
Maybe a regional thing. Here in FL I've been buying 500 - 1,000 rounds of Mimi-Mag each month.Always in stock at the wally worlds in San Antonio. Federal 550's all day long

if i misinterpreted your sarcasm i apologize i still find it difficult to see facial expressions via txt...
Plenty of ammo down here in southern Arizona. Unfortunately, at the LGS, it's priced so high it's sitting piled in the shipping boxes - then again maybe I just keep showing up right after they unload the truck.

I can get 40sw no problem but as for 9mm you can't get it. The best thing I have done is buy a G27 (40cal) so I at least can find ammo for it.
I have also had problems with the wal-mart stores around here trying to place limits on how many boxes of ammo you can purchase (6 boxes per day per customer). They have tried to say after 10pm they stop selling ammo (not true) as all you have to do is get a manager to open the case to sell it. If you have this problem just call 1-800-WAL-MART let them know the situation and problem solved.
Just thought I would let folks know you can get things done if you aren't scared to follow up.
huh, we must live in the same area of NC i'm around gastonia, about 7 of them within about 20 miles of me, and .40 is the only handgun ammo i ever see in... other than .44. i also bought a .40 with no other reason than having something to shoot. a couple of them around here have started getting the winchester 333 round boxes, and some keep cci stingers occasionally. i was at the wal-mart in cherryville yesterday and they had 2 100 round boxes of .40, and 5 or 6 50 round boxes, but no other handgun ammo.
.22 rimfire is next to nonexistant, I have not seen rimfire at Wallyworld in over a year
The idea that an ammo shortage, if it still exists, is in any way related to the wars does not make sense. As far as I can tell the one caliber that you can find anywhere is large supply is .223 and that's what the troops are using. I was at Dicks a few days ago and they had at least 6 different brands of .223. Remington has been selling for $8 a box for months.
