The ammo shortage is being created by gougers. They buy up all the stock and sale it huge mark up. Free market or not, it’s shady and I won’t buy from them. I hope the market recognizes it and punishes them.

No it's not...gougers aren't colluding to create a shortage. That's just too difficult and even CTD is a small player compared to DHS.

Even the USMC is running short of ammo. Do you think they are being victimized by gougers?

DemshateGod...I do appreciate your frustration and I respect your opinion.

I am also p!ssed. But this shortage is pure supply and demand...it isn't due to gouging.

BTW, everything I read online says that the ammo plants are working 24/7 to fill the demand...but the demand is simply outstripping supply.

I had not even thought of it but you are probably right. If middlemen really are grabbing up large lots in order to gouge, I hope they get caught with it when prices return to normal.
