I still can’t find .22 LR at reasonable prices.
Walmarts in our area still have empty shelves.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Try Cheaper Than Dirt.

[SkyDancer]

Have you tried Cabela’s? I found that our local one has .22’s and believe it or not; .22magnum ....

[mountainlion]

Gun sales is Obama’s best sales as far as the economy goes.

[Paladin2]

How many 10’s of thousands of 22LR should one have on hand?

[Lurkinanloomin]

They just opened a Cabela’s near me, but I haven’t been in there yet. .22 magnum has been even a more rare find.
I bought a Henry .22 magnum lever about the time he got elected and haven’t been able to shoot it much. They have it at the range, but it’s steep.

[CivilWarBrewing]

Remember those good 'ol CCI STINGER .22LR mini rockets? The nastiest .22LR ever, difficult to find now.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Depends on how many Marlin 60’s one has.......

[2ndDivisionVet]

I miss that gun.

“You can’t have those things, citizen. You must give them to the state.”

Hillary on guns IF she were truthful (snerk).

[2ndDivisionVet]

I live so close to FEMA Region VI headquarters that they could send someone to pick me up on a bicycle.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Aguila makes a Super-Hyper Velocity round that is pretty spicy.

[SkyDancer]

I bought three boxes of .22mag (150rds)for $14/box - they only let you buy three at a time.

[Sasparilla]

...I still can’t find .22 LR at reasonable prices.

WM usually has a decent selection of 9mm and above. Though not lots of it.
.22_at Walmart? The WM’s around here usually say, “We get a couple of boxes in every now and then.
The local Bass Pro Shops usually has .22 LR HP 100 rd boxes for about $10.00. Limit one. Bring the wife w/you. Can usually get all calibers there too though pricier than WM.

The stock of ammo at brick and mortar stores still has not recovered completely from the drought caused by the pretender in the White House.

[Shanghai Dan]

About 10K more than you think you should have.

Hillary Clinton Could Topple Obama's Record for Revving Gun Sales

That would be phenomenal!

The Dem/libs have been engaging in a steady push to infringe on our right
to keep and bear arms for decades. And this is how it has been working out for them in the last two decades...

• The percentage of Americans who own guns has increased.
• The percentage of Americans who believe we have a right to own guns has increased.
• The number of guns owned per gun owner has increased.
• The amount of ammunition possessed per gun owner has increased.
• Concealed carry laws have spread from state to state like wildfire.
• Castle Doctrine laws have been passed in numerous states.
• Stand Your Ground laws have been passed in many states.
• Gun rights lobbying groups have become a cottage industry unto themselves.
• In the worst economy since the Great Depression the firearms industry can't keep up with orders or expand fast enough.
• 65.4 Million Guns Bought Since Obama Took Office, 91% More Than Bush's First-Term Total 2/12/2013
• 46,455 Background Checks For Gun Purchases Each Day Under Obama 5/3/2013

And in the last two months... (Nov. 2012 and Dec. 2012)

• Americans Buy Enough Guns in Last Two Months to Outfit the Entire Chinese and Indian Armies 1/14/2013
• NRA membership has increased by 250,000. (Jan. 2013)

And it continues...

• NRA Surges to Record 5 Million Members (May 4, 2013)

And there is more...

• FBI Report: Early 2013 Crime Decrease Coincides with Gun Sales Boom

And more...

• FBI: March 2014 Was Biggest March in Gun Background Check History
  ...the raw data shows "2,488,842 total background checks
  were performed in March 2014."

And yet more...

• Gun sales spike in June (highest June sales since 1999) July 7, 2015
  Background checks for gun sales spiked 11% in June compared to last year, making it the busiest June ever,...

And more and more and...

• FBI data shows record number of September gun sales October 10, 2015
  FBI's National Instant Background Check System shows gun sales hit a record high for the fifth month in a row with 1,795,102 prospective gun owners processed in September.

We just keep buyin' more...

• Gun Sales Set Record for Sixth Month in a Row Sales for October 2015

And we bought more more more...

• Record for U.S. Gun Background Checks Set on Black Friday 12/3/2015

And more and more and more...

• 2015: The Year of the Gun (All time record number of background checks processed) 1/4/2016
  More than 23 million checks were processed through the National Instant Background Check System in 2015, an all-time record.

KEEP FLAPPIN' YOUR LIPS, 0BAMA! WE'LL BUY MILLIONS MORE. ;-)

I still can’t find .22 LR at reasonable prices. Walmarts in our area still have empty shelves.

You could increase .22 by tenfold and it wouldn't be enough. I haven't seen a brick on the shelves in almost a decade.

[Paladin2]

Let’s say, just for the point of argument, two. One that holds 17, and the other, slightly less.
