    Our little bitty podunk gun store in Anderson had a dozen trucks parked in the lot that can hardly handle half that and the store is only 20 feet across. Its a little store. People are spreading far and wide in search of ammo on shelves. One guy was on a drive from Victoria and hit every sporting goods/gun store going up to Lufkin. I ran into the same guy in Ables in Huntsville when trying to find 7mag ammo.

      One of out local shops posted on Facebook that they had a shipment of ammo come in. There were over 60 trucks in the parking lot the next morning with the furthest person driving 4 hours one way... its ridiculous

        FYI, shooters station in Conroe had boxes 6.5 Grendel and a bunch of .300 mag and larger hunting rounds. Didn't see a price on anything.

          I had some steel duck loads in my cart online yesterday. Had to take care of something and 10 min later they had removed them from my cart because they sold out. Already seen where one place has gone to order online, pick up in store, 2 box limit only to try to limit the guys making a business of it.

                  Bullets and toilet paper go hand and hand. When **** gets messy, you'll want a good supply.

                    I asked my wife why there is a fold up chair in her car. She calls it her "Academy chair"- she will go to the store in Lufkin on occasion and wait in line with the other fools to get me ammo.

                      It's the idiots that pay the outrageous prices that are the problem. Quit buying from the price gougers and the problem goes away. I refuse to do it. I have a small supply for each caliber I own. If I run out of one, I'll switch to another until this crap stops. If it doesn't stop, I have the stuff to reload if need be.

                          They get ammo shipments Monday and Friday now. Sells out everyday they get shipments, there was about 70-80 people at my academy in Austin yesterday morning and I was 55th in line and was able to buy 23 boxes of ammo and I could have bought more. This one also allows people to go through the line as many times as you want.

It's okay to sit on a little stock but if you don't need it or aren't going to use it leave it to someone else that will. I feel like us conservatives are creating our own problem on this deal....
                            U got it!!!
                            Supposedly the last president was the greatest boost to gun and ammo sales ever, that never threatened the 2nd amendment. That was eclipsed in only 4 years now by a president that actually banned bump stocks!!!! Go figure! [emoji849]

                                So what do you with the 23 boxes of ammo? You reselling or just stocking up for end times?
