Reeder Custom Guns - notes from our 2 main distributors which are 2 of the `4

largest guns and ammo distributors in the country. Th main thing each stressed is very little hunting ammo or rifles to be available this fall. This is going to put a big damper on our hunting seasons this year. Unless the hunters have ammo stashed they will be in deep chitlins. Even standard or normal ammo like 30-30, 30-06, 270 etc will be very hard to find and in very limited quantities.

I don't know if any of you saw the note I got from Steve Hornady a couple of weeks ago. I was hurting for 375 caliber bullets for my 378 GNR and had e-mailed Steve to see if they had a box or two of 375 caliber bullets he could send me. Here is his answer...

Gary,
I can sympathize. I’m leaving for Africa week from tomorrow and needed some 375 Ruger ammo and we were out so I told the guys to handload some and we didn’t have any bullets! Ended up some of our people had a stash at home so I was able to get enough for my trip. Saying all that to tell you I don’t have two boxes to send, I don’t have one box! but I do have 20 bullets which I will send. I am sorry I can’t do better but with everything going on last year we didn’t run quite a few items since the demand was so low and now we can’t catch up!

Regards,

Steve kept his word and I got 20 375 caliber bullets from him a day or two later, which helped a lot for my lion hunt in September. But the gist of this if one of the largest ammo, bullets and brass companies in the country can't come up with enough ammo for the owner of the company to hunt in Africa with and he had to scrounge up a handful of bullets from one of his employees, then where are the rest of us going to get our needed ammo, bullets and brass for the coming fall hunts. It ain't looking good for the home team.

Black powder guns. It's a new learning curve for me so I am reading up on it now.

We have had a really hard time getting the lead balls, Pyrodex (real black powder is illegal in this county due to forest fire danger), caps, and the normal BP accessories. Just like the other shortages.

BP season and nobody in this area has anything. All the shops have them ordered but on back order. The 2 shops say they are ordered but have been since January and nothing yet. I may have to skip the BP season this year.

just guns, ammunition and reloading stuff. Not so. Every industry that has a manufacturing facility that was shut down due to the covid scare is hurting, whether it be car parts, furniture, hardware, whatever. China has figured a way to destroy this country without firing a shot.

More correct than you know. This was the dry-run. As have been the computer hacks of all our major infrastructure (to include our military). And it won't just to be turn things off. There will be floods (dams), nuclear plant disasters, our municipal water plants, train derailments, industrial conflagrations, satellites will crash, hospitals will have nothing electronic working, there will be virtually no communications working, et al. Add a few strategic EMP bombs and we will be back to the stone-age per se. And the ATTACK-BUG will be 1,000 times worse than COVID. Don't believe it, just standby. (FYI, it has been proven where COVID came from -- a covert facility located in Wuhan, in China's Hubei province <French built them a biosafety Level 4 lab for research on infectious diseases in 2004>.) Several countries will join in the onslaught once our guards are down. And regretfully, this is just a thumbnail sketch...

Want to do a little research on your own: start with the
place at the heart of it all, the Wuhan Institute of Virology, home to the China Centre for Virus Culture Collection, the largest virus bank in Asia which, preserves more than 1,500 strains, according to its website.

The complex contains Asia's first maximum security lab equipped to handle Class 4 pathogens (P4) -- dangerous viruses that pose a high risk of person-to-person transmission, such as Ebola.

is cut off Chinese goods to the USA for a short while and the country would collapse. That way, they still have the market available. They do not want to destroy such a massive importer of their goods, but only own it.
