Is all that hoarding out of fear - or are there other factors at work ??

Ben Franklin was right in observing, “When people are scared of their government, it is tyranny. When government is scared of the people, it is liberty.” This inspired the title of Mark Levin’s current best seller, “Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto.”
We need to get to the point that government is more scared of the people than people are of the government.

I was able to score 900 rounds of 9mm ball ammo..and its the first 9mm Ive seen on shelves for 3 months.

I just hit it lucky to get that.

I noticed this past weekend that my local Walmart has posted a six-box limit on ammo sales.

Gee, it’s like people read the Homeland Security report and thought they were being targeted by the government or something.

The following is a public service announcement.

Here's my tip of the month: there is still a great pistol and ammo deal out there waiting for you. If you have waited too long to arm up, or if you want one more, look at the excellent milsurp CZ-52 pistol and 7.62X25 Tokarev ammo.

You can get a CZ-52 for about $200 at any gun show or at many gun stores. You can also find them by googling around the internet. The ammo can be had for as low as 11 cents a bullet in any quantity you want. Extra mags are from $12 to $20 each.

The milsurp ammo is full metal jacket, firing an 85gr bullet at 1,600fps. These will go through car doors, kevlar helmets, kevlar vests etc like an icepick through butter. OTOH, they will also go through one bad guy and maybe hit a good guy behind him.

However, you can buy hollowpoints ("Wolf Gold" with brass shells) for about $19/50, or half the price of comparable 9mm JHPs. My test "Wolf Gold" JHP ammo expanded to .60 caliber, the same as my test 9mm JHPs.

So for $400, you could buy a CZ-52, 1,500 rounds of assorted ammo, and a few extra mags. OR, you could buy about 2/3s of a "brand name" pistol, and no ammo.

It's just a thought. This is a great bargain. The ammo is cheap and plentiful at all of the internet catalog sites. Don't wait, the libtards will soon slam the door on foreign gun and ammo imports, and the prices will go way up.

Another benefit of this pistol is that it is very accurate, with very fine sights. WIth this flat-shooting ammo, you can hit at 100 yards with ease. Downsides are brittle firing pins (buy a spare, and don't dry fire) and a decocking function that you should not trust. Just lower the SA hammer like a 1911. The safety works like a 1911, so if you are used to 1911s, it will be very easy to use the CZ-52

I'm certainly doing my part.

I'm looking to stock about 5,000 rounds for each of my rifles, and half that for each my pistols. I just got a Saiga 12, so I suppose I need to get shells too! lol

Having said that, I think the run on ammo, while surely justified, is a bit misplaced. I don't believe the politicians are going to do ANYTHING regarding ammo at the federal level. If they do anything, it will be against semi-auto rifles and magazines.

I just ordered 50 magazines for my PTR-91, at an awesome price from the PTR-91 website. If anyone else is interested, look here:

Work with your like-minded friends and neighbors to tag-team stores. Know what each other is looking for and get what you can when you can - then spread the wealth! ;^)

I just ordered 2,000 rounds of his stuff. Didn’t say anything about it being backordered. But if it is, I can wait. It’s just .22 LR, and I already have enough to get me by until it shows up, and then some. Some of what I have I’ve had in the “ready” box, for years. The rest of that brick is in another ammo can, somewhere, but it’s getting pretty depleted.

Ammo and guns are selling like crazy.

There is no end in sight, the products can’t be made fast enough.

People are willing to pay far more than what the products are worth.

Economy is near depression levels, but people continue to buy.

Retirement funds are worth less than half of what they were less than a year ago, yet thousands of new gun owners continue to stock up.

People are buy sight unseen and not even bothering to barter.

Significant tax increases are right around the corner, but we spend our money on more guns and ammo.

Nearly a million people a month are losing their jobs every month and the stock markets have hurt the common man, but the guns and ammo keep moving off of the shelves.

What’s Obama do?

The fool buys a failing auto manufacturer. Priceless. LOL

It's not nearly enough.

Just watch, next it's going to be that public sales are stopped via mandate because law enforcement personnel are low on ammo.

Strait from the White House....

The mathematical equation is so simple, it's now an axiom: guns+ammo=freedom.

The only variable is the will to utilize the equation.

5.56mm

A real sign....the upper middle class to genuinely rich Jews (think guys like Chuckie Schumer) in Great Neck are hitting the gun shops like mad since January. Watching them look at the toys under the glass you’d think they were school girls looking at spiders.

We're not worried about Obama's laws.

We're worried about running out of ammo before we run out of tyrants.
