The limited supplies of ammo my gun store gets in recently are from Fiocchi, FMJ and HP.

I was talking to a guy who says he can’t find any 38 Special rounds...I’ve been stocked up for a while so haven’t been shopping to find out what’s in supply and what isn’t.

I assure you they would do it if they could. The demand out there is the highest since WW2.

Companies have to make realistic decisions about what they can do regarding production. No one wants to leave money on the table. They could lose everything including bankruptcy on the back end once demand drops. You can’t just sell everything off.

With regard to workers, its not Amazon. Ammunition manufacture takes skilled production workers to accomplish. Liability and safety demands it.

Hell, don’t attack the messenger.

go to ammoseek.com
search for .380
real time inventory hundreds of stores in one site
they have plenty

Not always. Try going to hose actual sites to buy some - doesn't work so well. My little bro was looking for 9mm, and I used them to find a bunch, but every time you clicked through to the actual website, it was all out of stock except for a couple boxen of the super-fancy stupid-expensive stuff.

The dumbest 10% of voters supposedly decide all elections based on who can sway them that cycle. They don’t vote based on any political philosophy they can coherently express, but vote based on non-rational things like physical appearance or which one was last predicted to win in the polling, or who the media said won the debates.
