re: #292 goddamnedfrank

The run on ammunition has gotten so bad that the only rimfire cartridges Midway has in stock are 5mm Remington, so esoteric that the the most recently produced firearm chambered in that caliber was manufactured in 1974, and .22 short blanks. The people at Walmart say that anything that’s brought in and stocked over night is cleared out within 15 minutes of their 7AM opening. This is the new normal, people stockpiling like crazy with no end in sight. The two cans of Fiocchi .22lr I ordered before Christmas finally arrived today. Just the talk of new legislation has been able to effectively induce a near three month waiting period simply through panic buying.

I still have a fair bit of powder & bullets but I’m out of large rifle primers. I do have plenty of large pistol and sold my small pistol recently to a new reloader at my cost. He was pretty happy about that. I may have to see if I can track down some of the Russian made primers if I run out of primed rifle brass before things calm down.

Feeping morons out there making things worse with their paranoia.
