Serious question about ammo

[walkerinatl]

What has happened with the supply/price of ammo? I only get to come on here every once and awhile. Two jobs, three kids, and a wife keep me hopping, so i have only noticed this in the last few months, but I have not heard the foundational reasons why this is happening this time. Last time it was because of the manufacturers moving overseas, and the wars going on at the time. What now?

Election panic combined with covid related cutbacks. And millions of new gun owners

7 million new gun owners is what is used mostly.

1 million new gougers

 

[Spas-12 Owner]

7 million new gun owners equals over 700 Million new rounds of ammo.

Riots and looting have people upping their "stock pile"

Limited raw material and work force shut downs due to Covid as well.

Don't believe any communist bull**** about "gouging". It's basic economics.
