Academy line for ammo

[n423]

No flippin' way I would be in that line, unless they're giving ammo away...

Flash back to the days of the .22 shortages and the neck beards gouging the sales at the gun shows.

A friend sent me this pic of the ammo line. I believe it is at the NW highway store. This morning.View attachment 189227

Unbelievable.......sure glad I've got a few rounds put back.

I wonder what time the first guy in line got there?

I was eyeing that picture closely. That Academy is near my brother's place. He called me this weekend trying to find some 380 ammo for his wife. I unfortunately no longer have any 380's, and thus have no ammo for them. We talked about how difficult it is right now to find any. I wouldn't surprise me if he was in that line, but he's not trying to resell, he's just trying to find a box or two.

FYI - I didn't see him there, but it's hard to tell for sure! haha.

Saw a news article on google about people camping out overnight to be up front for ammo

So,.......somebody is getting advance notice when their delivery hits the shelves and calling their friends, who call their friends, who call their friends.......

Lack of phonebooks Good or Bad?
Walked into a couple LGS this morning.
They had lots of ammo at decent prices.
No neckbeards in there wiping them out.
I'm not telling where they are, but the stuffs out there.
Just look around and quit going to walmart, academy and bass pro.

Management at that store told me their shipments come in on Monday and Thursday mornings, early.
He said they give out numbers to those waiting outside, then when they open you get to come in by number to buy ammo, which is limited to x number of boxes.
I tried that last Thursday, got there about 10 minutes before opening. I was told they stopped giving out numbers after about 40. He asked what ammo I was looking for and I said 9mm, he said no way I would get any.
I just left.
