BREAKING NEWS! There is a shortage of ammo!

[38special]

Saw this on the top of Drudge today:

Gun Dealers Report Shortages of Ammunition

It says there is a shortage of ammo around the country because of unprecedented demand!

About 2 months late on the story....

Also amusing is the "high capacity 30 round clip" they picture down the page on the left side.

Yeah, last week I think it was there was a story about this on the Indychannel.com website and today there is a story about it on Indystar.com. They're quite a bit late to the party, I would say. The only people this may be news to are the anti-gun people who think we need to protect ourselves with mace or a pair of scissors.

Next thing you'll see is a headline that says 'Assault Weapon costs at a all time high after unprecedented demand'...Maybe INGO should scoop the Indy Star! We could even post the story for free...tht would really shake up the Star!! Free News. Whooooduhthunkit!

The National Shooting Sports Foundation, which represents ammunition makers, retailers, hunters and sport shooters, attributes what it calls "spot shortages" around the country to rising popularity of sport-shooting and hunting, and to people who are "keeping firearms for personal and home defense."

Spot shortages? OK...where's all that ammo laying around, going unsold?

Hahaahhaah. No way Really?

SHORTAGE???? When did this happen?

It seemed to be in pretty good supply on the range at Beech Grove Firearms today.

I wondered that as well, but ZbornacSVT posted earlier that he had found a good amount of .22lr in Nevada during the SHOT show. It may be out there somewhere but it certainly isn't around here!

Shortage.... I thought there was a shortage before December, I would call it a outage now. Wonder if all the manufacturers are working 24/7 to build the unprecedented orders the government placed last year
