I guess if gas pumps ever got "scarce" I could hide one under my jacket and pay for it at the end of the day..

Don't worry. In 6 months when all the panic has subsided the market will be flooded with guns and ammo that people bought but couldn't really afford, and by that time prices will be back down. Bubba will realize he's tired of looking at 100,000 rounds of 22lr in his bathroom tub and decide he needs to pay his bills.

I just bought 10 boxes of American eagle 223 at Walmart for $8.00/ box 10 minutes ago. Don't love Walmart but they seem to have 223 and 9mm when the gun stores don't so that's where I will buy them.

Six months, I wouldn't bet on it. Sales have increased dramatically sine the kenyan took office 4 years ago, and have been increasing ever since.

Federal Cartridge Corp has said they are 2 years behind on their orders. And that's if nothing happens.

If that's truly the case there will be a lot of OT and some tooling expansions going on. Doesnt take long to pay for equipment if the demand is truly there.

A friend of mine was complaining to me that he just bought a 32 pistol, but couldn't find ammo for it......
he blamed everyone but who is truly to blame.....
The people are buying it so fast the manufacturers can't make it fast enough and with the NRA signing up more than 300,000 new members....well, there's lots of demand for the ammo.
Lots of people making serious money off this whole deal...gun and ammo manufaturers, gun and ammo sellers and of course, the NRA.
I wonder how many congressmen are getting paid to keep this scare going...?
I guess it'll all work out though, since everyone should have enough ammo to last a dozen years or more, so all the restocked ammo and guns may have to sit on the shelves for a while...
Again, some people are making some serious money right now....
I wonder how many congressmen are getting paid to keep this scare going...?
Congressmen??? You mean President Obama.
Obama is the one behind this. Remember last week when he had those 4 kids behind him and he signed his 23 executive actions or have you forgotten that already??? They include pushing Congress to ban the AR's and all high cap mags from all guns.
Yep, your buddy Obama is doing this so he must be the one getting paid.

They are working 8 hour shifts 24/7.
That's just one company, the others are all dong the same.
The problem is they do NOT dare add any more tooling expansions until they know for sure what is going to happen. You own company would not do it either unless they knew is new laws, rules and/or regulations would be coming. No they will not spend any money on new tools and machines just to have to turn them all off if some kind of limits come out like an online ammo sales ban.
