Over the last couple of weeks, I have been out shopping for a new camp rifle.
I have noticed the availablity of ammo is very low. I was shopping for .357, 30-06 & 12 gage. Seems to be an ok supply of shotgun shells, but less than 5 boxes of the other stuff.
While in Dick's sporting goods I over heard the clerk saying he is getting partial shipments with less than a case of each type, and that he was only getting 2 shipments a week.
In Walmart this morning, I heard a clerk say he wasn't getting a shipment for another week.
Amazing what you hear when you keep your mouth shut and your ears open.
I have not been in any gun stores recently so maybe there isn't a shortage, but seeing the big box stores low on inventory got me thinking.
I wonder if there is a real shortage or are more people stock piling than we think?
