While Barack Obama was president, gun sales across the nation surged, largely because of citizen concerns over gun-control measures.
But sales back then were nothing compared to the more than 17 million weapons purchased already this year. The demand has emptied the shelves of some gun stores and ammunition is scarce.
"And, of course, a shortage and skyrocketing costs for factory-loaded ammunition forced many Americans to investigate alternative options in panic hoarding bullets."
The report notes that requests for information about reloading ammunition for 9 mm weapons tripled over the past few months.
"Reloading, also called handloading, is the process of making firearm cartridges by manually assembling the individual components rather than purchasing factory-loaded ammunition. Reloading can easily be done at home," the report said.

Yes, we are going to have to be more independent as the criminal democrats will continue to execute lawfare against our rights and try to force gun and ammo companies out of business. See and heed my tagline.

“Will trade ammo for toilet paper.”
Time and place?😱🙌😂
Yep, primers and powder are getting awful scarce.
Old soldiers adage...
Just have enough ammo to get on the battlefield.....
Once there, there will be plenty of weapons and ammo laying around.....
Well this article is only 8 months behind the times, lol
Small pistol primers have been Unobtanium for at least that long, i.e. nowhere to be found, nada, zilch, all gone.
Without primers, nothing goes bang. Find a new hobby or pay premium prices for ammo.
You either have it or you dont at this point. Amen
Glad I stocked up a while back. Local auction had 2 1000 pack boxes of large pistol primers going for $140.
ALWAYS salvage what’s available.
Will small pistol primers ever be obtainable again?
That’s the big question.

They are all going to ammo production. Expect it to be years.
The shame of all this is that “practice, practice, practice” has become impracticable.
Tick, tick.
The libs keep pushing.
Tick, tick.
Keep pushing.
Sooner or later............
We stocked up during the, ‘0bama Reign of Error.’ Never in a million years would I have predicted Donald Trump as America’s Advocate!
¡Viva la Revolución! ;)
As has been posted before. Probably not gonna be any hours long fire fights. And, sooner or later, luck runs out.
Or never if our Nations infrastructure fails due to a fraudulent election being certified.
F-n commies.
Rimfire.
The Left isn’t worried about our 100 million guns.
When the crap hits the fan the Chicoms will supply them with 100 million free AK47’s.
They probably already have them warehoused here in cosmoline.
God will sort it out.
