Legitimate questions, I haven’t been out to see.

I remember last shortage people saying they would just get a 40 S&W because that ammo never ran out so it would available next time.

So my question is. Is there plenty of 40 S&W ammo available this time?
During the obama days i was able to buy 40 S&W about 1/3rd of the time i was looking for it.I haven't seen any 40 S&W on the shelves at Academy since February of this year.However, i don't live as close to Academy as i use to.

Yeah, I said that too. Problem is, the shelves at Academy look like a corn field after the locus have swarmed. There isn't really even an ammo section/shelves at the local one.

As to selling, I'd say if you have plenty now is a good time to sell.

And that brings up the age old question...how many rounds per gun/caliber do you need? 1000? 2000? 5000?

My neighbor is a senior level diplomat in Iraq. He comes back to the states for about two weeks and then is gone for six months. We all had dinner a few weeks ago and he said that at his base near the ******* Airport they have 11,000,000 rounds of ammunition total. I assume that is made up for 5.56 NATO, 7.62 NATO, 9mm NATO, 50 BMG, and 12 Gauge.

I have begged him to just bring me back 2,000 rounds of 9mm NATO and 5.56 NATO....I mean what is 2,000 out of 11,000,000?

Thus far he has not acquiesced to my request lol.

I don’t think the Sandy Hook ammo scare is going to come anywhere close to what I suspect this one is going to turn out to be.
Whatever prices are right now (if a person can even find ammo) could be three times as much by this time next year especially if the whore ends up in the oral office.
