OMG, make it stop.
My local Walmart wanted $22 for 20 rounds of Federal 9mm. It’s nuts.
Wow: $1.50/rd.
Cheaper than Dirt is the King of all Gougers. Check Gunbot from time to time. It’s a real time tracker of in stock ammo and it updates automatically. All the stuff that’s a good price goes pretty quick.

Whaaa......buck fifty a round? Ouch.
Why is DHS buying all the ammo who do they intend to shoot with 2 billion rounds of ammmo, 19 hijackers?
what is the role of DHS? is it Obama’s civilian military just as powerful just as well funded as the real military except outside of the Hague convention on hollow points?
Cheaper than Gold...
Cheaper than dirt sucks.
I also just bought ar AR-74 just because the ammo is so cheap.
Stop buying from CTD.
Sitting tight on whatever I have. They have helicopters, tanks and drones. We have the people, and we know the ground we walk on. It’s a 50/50 shot at best, for them. If the odds change we’ll have to go on the offensive - given the most current situation. No other President in my lifetime has given me reason to think this way.
I haven’t bought anything from CTD since they jacked up their prices after the 2008 election.
This whole ammo and guns availability thing has been fascinating to me and totally unpredictable.
First of all I don’t need any ammo except 8mm Mauser and can’t afford much even if it was available.
Just out of curiosity, every time I go to the Wal-Mart Super Center in Defuniak Springs, I check their ammo supply. The next to last time I checked they seemed to be rebuilding their ammo stock and except for AR style, guns too.
I went by yesterday and the gun racks were mostly full but ammo again has dropped. In fact it was the barest I have ever seen it. Even the ones they still had such as shotgun shells and the less common rifle cartridges were gone. I don’t think they had more than a dozen boxes of any kind.
Something strange really is going on. Every now and then I think about making a profit on the huge stock of .22LR I have, but then I would no longer have them.
This is where it has been for weeks now.
Whadda a bunch of cry-babies.
A while back CTD made a statement regrading some of the cost increases on magazines that they were raising the prices to slow down purchases. They were getting more orders than they could handle. Even with the jacked up prices ($99 for a 30 round steel AR magazine) they were still selling out.
I bought 1,000 rounds 12ga Remmington Target loads Friday for $483 from a local store. I’m pretty well stocked up, so I haven’t had to gou out and buy any ammo since these crazy prices hit.
To hell with that... They can keep it.
Just insane!
