DON'T BUY IT.
How hard is that to understand?
I don't like it any more than you do, I wish all these Neck beard, ammo hoarding slobs would all jump off a bridge.
Every time you see some ammo on the Internet for sale at a good price it is gone in just a few minutes.

I wish we could get senate hearings to investigate this.

I'd rather see them review Rangel's blatant misconduct regarding the 1986 Machine Gun Act.

About a year and a half to two years ago some guy was posting on all the gun forums that there were some shenanigans that went down to pass the Hughes amendment.

He had gone so far as to get the transcripts of the proceedings and then the VHS videotapes from C-SPAN.

So, whatever happened to that?

Thanks! It's a shame he could get any more traction out of it.

Just don't buy it. I'm not buying any 22 ammo period until this stupidity blows over.

I think the scarcity stupidity will pass, but the price stupidity is here to stay.

Quoted:
I just wish that Walmart would raise their brick prices to around $40ish.

When they sell it below market price, despite placing limits on daily purchases, the disability neckbeards and other jobless useless-eaters can be in line every morning at 0600 and corner the market.

Walmart tries to offer a loss leader for a broad sample of customers, but the same group that doesn't mind living off a government check doesn't mind getting in line to get a disproportionate share of a below market price commodity. Apparently $20 capitalism trumps basic courtesy.

Fuck those jobless shitbag cocksuckers. Raise the goddamn prices already and let the neckbeards go back to digging soda cans out of dumpsters, or giving $5 "capitalism jobs" down at the bus station.

Well said.

Exactly. I used to buy a box of 22 every other time I went through wal-mart. Sold it for $50 a box and now have next to no 22 cal ammo. I will not buy it until it comes down from stupid to logical.

For everyone that bought a 22 cal item or another you ought to switch over to airsoft instead. Same kick, actually affordable. Or man up and shoot full caliber at 30 cents ar round.

By browsing the local Armslist you would think there is a panic going on right now.

My intention isn't to troll, it's to illustrate that since price gouging doesn't exist (and it doesn't) then it doesn't make a lot of sense to complain about all of this 'neckbeard' ammo flipping business. It's inconsistent at best, outright retarded at worst.

Tier one trolling Op. I'm surprised these threads still get the mileage they do.

We aren't really bitching about .22, we're just using the scarceness of .22 as an excuse to bitch about the neckbeards.

I thought yall were just fucking around about the neckbeards.. But I had to run to Walmart (which i detest) this morning before 8am. I went by the ammo counter, and by god if there wasn't some old fart making a bee-line to the ammo counter, asking for .22.

Funny you should say that.

My daughter and I was at a Wal-Mart last week. I had to stop and get some stuff for the wife as well as get some Hopps #9.

We were walking toward the ammo counter, when this 400lb guy, wheezing like a over used steam engine, comes rumbling by, on the other side of the main aisle.

He's looking at me so hard, that he nearly runs head long into the ammo cabinet.

He stands there, hands on his knees, wheezing and looking at the bare shelves.

He looks up as I walk by, heading to the cleaning supplies. He starts to open his mouth and I say, "Don't worry sport, I have plenty of 22. Knock yer self out."

Deal of the Day.....

PSA has Federal American Eagle Suppressor .22LR 45gr Copper Plated 50rds....$7.99 for 50. I don't know what is was pre-panic but it seems steep to me. Must be steep to others too as it's been up for a few days.

Me and my kids are shooting 22 right now, but then again, I bought it cheap and stacked it deep years ago.

It would nice if there was just more of it around. Back to the days when Walmart and everyone else had it sitting on the shelves all the time. If that could happen there wouldn't be a market for over-priced stuff.

start buying 556 and 223.

I've got thousands of rounds of .22LR buried in a closet from a few years ago, I thought about selling it but I don't feel like digging it out.

At least you can get them. We hav'nt seen any in over a year. The people that told it'll never happen.

Refuse to pay the price.

I waited it out and my Cabella's backorder came in this week.
Fed bulk box at $23 a box. Whole case of it.
And no, I won't be flipping any of it.
