So the manufacturers are producing as much as they can. And the retail outlets are buying as much as they can. And no one, anywhere, is actually getting any of it.
And this sudden demand for .22LR just exploded in December, 2012.
If that makes sense to you, great. It doesn’t to me. At all.
Maybe someone here can answer:
1. How many new .22lr buyers/shooters have there been since Dec 2012?
2. How many new preppers are there since Dec 2012?
I’m charitably thinking the answer to the ammo shortage lies somewhere in between.
