“The latest run on ammo leaves cops training with Airsoft

There’s yet another run on ammo.

It wasn’t as if ammo was available before the latest jihadi attack on Boston, but if there was any ammo available, it’s gone now, according to CBS Miami.

POMPANO BEACH (CBS4) – Ammunition sellers and manufacturers say there’s been a run on bullets and they can’t keep their shelves stocked.

Jeff Dillard who runs National Armory in Pompano says it’s the worst he’s ever seen.

“I have never seen ammo so impossible to get,” said Dillard.

He said demand for ammunition has been growing and spiked over the past couple of days.

“Because of the terrorist attacks and the gun control legislation people are getting in more of a panic situation,” Dillard said.

When he can get bullets, Dillard says, they’re expensive.

Well, I tried a few links from 556RECON to the vendor sites, and everything listed is in-stock. So, while I think (but aren't sure) local retail stores might be struggling, ammo is available online.

"When he can get bullets, Dillard says, they’re expensive."

Amen.
