got some serious news this evening
Right at closing one of our distributors called and this fellow is probably in the 55 age bracket and not a "chicken little" kind of guy (the sky is falling etc).
I have been with his company for many years and they are one of the 2 biggest distributors in the country. When he gets any ammo or guns (it is always allocated), he tries to give us as much as he can. His boss got with the sales people today and told them the country is running out of ammo, that all his sources for ammo are rapidly drying up. He said if people were to stop buying for 30 days the manufacturers could stock up maybe 5 to 10% of their normal amount on hand, but if not they would run dry very soon.
I don't know the answer to this. People are not going to stop or slow down their ravenous urges to buy more and more ammo, reloading supplies and guns. Normally I would say "no big deal", when the ammo runs out they will stop. But the way people are talking if the ammo supply runs out they will find sources of more, such as the homes of folks that are saying they have a lot of ammo and guns. This in itself would normally not worry me as most that say something like that would never go through with it. But now I don't know.
This country is on the verge of a civil war and it won't be civil in any sense of the word. If the liberals and Antifa start something, conservative Americans will shut it down real quick. But then Biden, if he becomes president, will turn the military against the "freedom fighters" which is us.
So as they say in rock & roll music, "tighten up your wig" folks, we may be in for a helluva ride.
