Well I stopped in Ft Worth Cabelas today since I was in the neighborhood. Didn't really need anything but if they had any primers I'd piick up some small pistols. I hadn't really
been looking anywhere for ammo or supplies for a while. Not a single sleeve of any size primer in the store. So I think I'll browse the ammo aisle just for shits and giggles to see exactly how much my reloading hobby was saving me. Well I really couldn't say how much I was saving because the shelves were damn near empty. No, 9mm, some 20 rnd . .40, .45? Didn't see any. Saw about 40 boxes of Win 5.56 Q3131A1 for $10.99. I knew things were bad out there, from readng and talking to my buddies but hell, I feel sorry for true shooting enthusiest who can't either find what he needs,or when he does can't afford to . Oh yeah they even had a 3 box limit on 9mm. There wasn't any to limit. Their overpriced gun counter was packed. Shees when is it going to get back to normal.

This is the new normal.
I hate seeing the US get sick but the immune system should kick in in 2 - 4 years. PS, I got 8 boxes of the monarch 9mm from academy tonight for 71.85 OTD McKinney Texas. I should have bought the whole case, but there were others like me who wanted 8 boxes. |
