Let's Build Our Own Ammo Factory!

There's essentially NO ammo available for retail sale in Colorado. None at all. Not in popular calibers like 9mm, .40 S&W and .45ACP.

The fascist Obammunists have locked up the domestic supply and are shutting down imports.

Why the hell don’t we conservatives set up a NEW ammo manufacturer in Texas and then refuse to sell to the FedGov. Maybe even make it a co-op, with member-owners getting first dibs on production.

I’m sure we could get any number of offshore companies to build us a turnkey ammo factory in Texas. I’m sure ammo companies in Italy, China, Korea, Israel, Hungary, or the Czech Republic would be delighted to do this. I bet it could be done for under 50 million. I'm sure a few of us have contacts with a few people, who together, could easily come up with amount of money.

Right now, 9mm ammo impossible to buy in Colorado, so I’d start there.

Where will you get components?

Texas has lots of chemical plants. the only worry would be the metals.

I never have any problem finding any ammo I want.

I want a Phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range.

Hey, just what you see, pal.

“I never have any problem finding any ammo I want.”

natchezss is sold out of 9mm.

“Mercury is no longer used in primers.”

True, but if you had to make your own, mercury fulminate is easier to make than alternatives.

[catnipman]

“Where will you get components?”

Make em. “Turnkey” factory.

I like Tennessee too! But I was also thinking locating in Mike Dillon’s neighborhood could be synergistic.

[MileHi]

Lot to learn, drawing brass and making bullets, powder and primers.

[JimRed]

I like that idea, but the location in TX would have to be carefully chosen. In or near a big city or college town where the progressives have achieved public office you might never get approvals for the facility.

“I never have any problem finding any ammo I want.”

Your sentence should have started out “Six months ago I never had . . .”

Natchez is just like everywhere else, not much of anything in stock. FYI - Lucky Gunner has some stock at the new and improved pricing.

“Sounds a little more like Spanky or Alfalfa jumping up and saying “Hey I know, let’s put on a show!””

It may sound like to you. But I’m serious. I think there’s money to be made. And also, I’m sick of a nation of sheeple who sit around and let their fascist government push them around. And that includes lots of the good conservatives who post here and then do little to alter outcomes.

I like the Moisin Nagant. I have an M39 which was rebarrelled and restocked in Finland, and it shoots great. There is nothing wrong with shooting that old corrosive commie ammo as long as you clean it afterwards. There is also nothing wrong with getting a can full of 440 rounds of high powered rifle ammo cheap, in the middle of a shortage.

You might be right!

[dangerdoc]

I’ll let you take care of the fulminate of lead (what is currently used in most primers) at your place. Toxic, touchy and dangerous to deal with on an industrial basis.

[BooBoo1000]

You make my shoulder hurt..Really a great old gun, and has proved it’s self many times over...

[Beagle8U]

I just checked for the 40 cal SW

There does seem to be a serious shortage of 22 LR online.

The local walmart had plenty a couple days ago when I was there.

[Beagle8U]

They do have 40 cal SW
