Trends in Gun and Ammo???

Post by revelation »

Hi Folks,
I have seen that Furor Biden has recently blocked all civilian ammo contracts at the famous Lake City plant. Also, I heard that they are possibly imposing 90 day exportation ban on U.S. made civilian weapon parts. Have you heard about this? Is it another stab at our 2nd amendment in a way I am too dunk to figure out? :D

The lake city thing is true. I haven't heard anything about any block in exporting parts.

Hey Molivo. Do you have access to see what is going on with .223/5.56 with distributors? Looks like people are panic buying probably from their trusty YouTube influencers.

Pretty much all distros are wiped out of it aside from match grade $1+ a round stuff. But I think it'll come back fairly quick.

I'd imagine if'n you are contemplating ammo purchases, no time like the present. There's an event a little over a year away and I fully expect "crazy season" to start right after Christmas picks our pockets. Joe

I hope that we can make it that far without an all-at-war in the Middle East!

I can tell you from a distributor level most mainstream distributors are out of .223 and 5.56. Everything else is still fairly available. No firearms are really unobtainable (unless they were already hard to get before the war). Interestingly enough one of the largest distributors in the country I order survival food from to sell at the store is completely wiped out.
