Reeder Custom Guns - Ammo conditions at my LGS this morning...

No 9mm except one box with purchase of a gun.

Plenty of 22 LR, but 22 Mag almost gone. As Gary has posted, suppliers are not able to provide any.

A few boxes of 40 S&W and 45 ACP. Limit 2 boxes of any caliber, so I added 100 of each.

A good supply of 38 Special and a smaller amount of other revolver calibers.

Primers almost gone, no more expected in stock on the horizon.

If you need it and can find it, buy it now.

Certainly gone down. Variety is out the door too.

All the 45 ACP is 230 grn FMJ RN. But, I'd not want to be hit by one. It's been effective for 115 years, so history is on it's side.

40 S&W has been 165 or 180 grn FMJ FN. Since that design is my favorite, I'm ok with that.

Asking for any certain brand, bullet style or weight is a laughing offence.

Obama's b.s. was anti-gun. All the antis were on his side. This time half the gun/ammo buyers were antis in the Obama Reign.

Jan 1st were first time gun buyers who claim they'd never own a gun. Clearly, just going by published reports.

I've spoken to several managers at gun shops I frequent who have given very similar information, numbers not kept by them however.

Ditto on the information from a local range instructor. Says it's the most new gun owners they've ever experienced.

We've seen runs and shortages on ARs and rimfire ammo. All reports from ammo manufacturers and gun shops I've spoke to state that this buying frenzy covers just about every category of firearms. Have spoken to Gary several times and he says it's the same there.

While I've not been shy on my disbelief of any information from any form of media, I do believe many trusted friends in the gun business.

and their property.

As Gary and others have pointed out, these number are checks only. Some are multiple purchases...

Not surprisingly, retailers reported an increased number of first-time gun buyers, estimating that 40 percent of their sales were to this group. This is an increase of 67 percent over the annual average of 24-percent first-time gun buyers that retailers have reported in the past. Semiautomatic handguns were the primary firearm being purchased by first-time buyers, outpacing the second-most purchased firearm, shotguns, by a 2 to 1 margin. Modern sporting rifles, revolvers and traditional rifles rounded out the top five types of firearms purchased by first-time gun buyers.

AR-15 an AR-15, not a Modern Sporting Rifle. People are so afraid they will offend someone.

Rifle." It's just an AR-15, AR-10, etc.

WILL THEY ALSO VOTE RIGHT??

Opened some eyes...I hope.

The propaganda mill during Obama was trying to convince the public that they didn't need guns, the police would protect them. Now, the same crowd wants to do away with police. Even many in The Communist Country of California are screaming sell me a gun.

In the end, God will trump all. Hopefully by using an actual Trump.

Personally, I believe common sense is gone the way of the dinosaur...

The lines are long for sheeple to get into a store, they get pissed because they have to wait outside, they are pissed because they have to wait in line for a sales person, they are pissed when they find out that the tactical style weapon they want to buy is on a 2 to 6 month backorder! Then, if they happen to get something they want that the store has they get pissed because they have to wait in a 2 hour line to get their paperwork done and pay a state fee of $38.19 to see if they are eligible to buy said firearm!Oh, just wait til they find out they have to wait 10 days to pickup said firearm....... Fun just going in an watching the SHIT SHOW!!!! Luckily, I am a super regular and can circumvent all but the 10 day crap!

but no 9, .38,40, 357, 45s. A few miles down the road another -Rural King had some of everything but not much in 22s. Powder still in stock at the LGS , small pistol primers gone but had some Rem large pistol, and rifle primers. Every time someone mentions polls and our President is behind more stuff is sold. I am glad I reload and can cast even for my .358 win
