ALL GUN sources are wiped out. 223, and other popular calibers are non-existent. Those who have it are charging alot cuz they know no one else has it. 223 for 60 cents a round, 9mm for 25cents a round, 7.62x39 for 35-40cents per round...(or as the media says, "bullet")
Even obscure things like brass, bullets, even Dies are gone, backordered, but not available now. I'm currently set up to load 9mm, and I can't find components anywhere. Reloading supply places have empty shelves. Been to a gun store lately? Lots of customers, but empty shelves.
All Evil guns are sold out, everywhere, and the few that you see here or there are double normal due to the scarcity of them. Not just "assault rifles", but everything...Try to find a high cap pistol mag right now, expensive and rare....plenty of hunting rifles.
It's supply and demand. Right now, there's no supply, and A LOT of demand.
I've placed some orders for mags and ammo in the last 30 days, and it's about 2 to 3 week time to get product. I just got a package today that was dated Jan 4 invoice date.
