Re: Sick and tired!!!

Thanks - i appreciate you telling me your process. Yea, i just started using gunbot about 2 weeks ago. No luck so far. I will try and scope the most likely companies to get'em. I see Midway saying that tulammo primers are coming soon. Ah, the Russians.

My story is i hunted years ago, have a few deer rifles and Remington 1100, and single six plinking revolver. And just last april a Glock for self defense - along with CHL. I fell in love with the handgun, and shot so much ammo i started thinking about re-loading. Then newtown and the socialist hit. I have about 300 rounds in the house and that's it. Starting think about getting back into a gun club also. But alas, no ammo :shock:

Local Academy on Monday had MUCH more ammo than I have seen in weeks although no 9mm, 40 or 45. Also saw some guns for the first time in a long time. The market will eventually return to some state of normalcy. What bothers me is the price gouging at some stores. Midway never price gouges as far as I can tell. But there sure are some taking advantage. But this is capitalism and it does work. I may have my first reload done in 4 months or so if I am lucky.

Ok I'll Bite on this. Midway today does not even take backorders - ZIP. When did you order the primers?

Re: Sick and tired!!!

Walmart Empty - at 3 stores North Dallas.
Academy Store in Arlington - found 6 people staring at a 50 foot empty shelf trying to grow bullets - nothing but scraps.
SGammo online nothing but trash bullets
Trying to buy a Dillon reloader - but why try? Looking for small pistol primers for 1 month online - nothing. Actually have a sw bot that searches for availability of primers about 12 stores. Nothing. So yea, i'd say the guy has a point that started this thread.
BTW ammo is available online - if you want to pay 2 or 3x what it was prior to Newtown - no thanks.


I wonder how long this will last? I am starting to think 1 year or more.
