I’ve been shooting and reloading for about 10 years now.
I know that when something is going down in the USA it will soon make its way North to us.

When the Wuflu shutdowns began last spring I made a concerted effort to up my ammo fort.

When I started hearing of primer shortages I upped my primer stocks before prices increased and supply dwindled.

As of this morning I found one supplier who still has BR-4 primers at pre-panic prices. I had bought from him last month but I thought he would have been out by now.
Looks like I’m about to order more BR-4’s.

There are others on Canadian gun forums that are wondering why they can’t find primers or why prices are skyrocketing.

Some people just like to keep their head in the sand.

A lot of people are "Why do today when I can put it off until tomorrow".

They are a lot like the ones who believe gas should go back to $1/gal and stay there, because it used to be that price and they deserve it.

*shrugs* how some people make it to adulthood is a mystery.

Most gun owners aren't gun people, at least the people I have interacted with outside of ranges/clubs

I'm also surprised at how many gun owners haven't heard of AR-15.com. I knew of arfcom 5-6 years before I joined simply by searching for literally anything gun related on the internet.

I just quit my part time job at a gun store. Too much pressure - people standing in line outside in the cold then having to wait to get to a sales rep then have to pay the prices plus limits on what's there don't make the best customers to deal with. They are scared. Its really sad to see. Prices be damned. They aren't leaving without something that shoots and even if its 25 rounds for $40 they'll buy it. Not going to get any better.
