He even said he and his friends were the reason no one can find ammo.

He sells to local LEO's also.
I wonder if he has a license to sell ammo?

I'm sure he has no formal business license nor tax exemption, but I am not sure what you refer to a license to sell ammo.

Sounds like he is making big profits. I wonder if he is reporting his profits to the IRS??

Opportunistic people like that are the exact cause of the problem ATM.
I did learn that my Walmart has stopped putting anything out before 7 though, if its on the truck and gets unpacked earlier it gets locked up in the back.

9mm at Walmart 45 and El Dorado (Houston) PPU brand for 14.75. Ten boxes in stock as of 5pm today. Also .40 at Academy on 45 near hobby airport at around 4:30 pm today - around 20 boxes or so, Federal I think. Still looking for the elusive .22 lr.

Just saw .38 special, 223 tula, .40, .380 and some more at the Walmart on Wheatland near I20 (Duncanville/Dallas area). Looks like things are starting to loosen up!

They raised their prices significantly on the 9mm since Late January when I last ordered from them. The box of 500 is about $25 more than it was before.

Gander Mountain in Cypress has tons of Blazer Brass FMJ in 9mm, 380 and 45. The price of 9mm was $119 for box of 350 rounds. 380 was $119 for box of 250 rounds. I didn't look at the price of the 45's.

I paid $89 for that same box back in December.
At least it is becoming available again. I checked ammobot for the first time in a few weeks and was surprised to see what was available.
