If You Need It, Get Your Ammo Quick.

[Frontier Firearms]

This is not an advertisement for our stores ammo, because we do not have much left. When we tried to re-order, everyone was sold out. Buy it while you can and where you can, because this situation will not correct itself for some time.

Im lucky I dont need it!

I dont even reload yet but i stocked up on everything i would need for a couple of my hunting calibers.

Other than the obvious 9mm and .223/5.56, what are the other calibers that will be hard to find?

[Frontier Firearms]

Hunting rounds are not as rare yet, but as demand for the big three (9mm, 223, & 308), goes up, production focus will shift away from hunting to handgun/black rifle rounds. 22LR is not much of a money maker for the ammo companies and is normally the first to limit or cease production in favor of others.

It is perhaps a 2 weeks away from really being noticed. 9mm is selling for up to $2 per round and 223 is selling for around $1.00-$1.50. There was a Canadian company who purchased most of the distributor inventory in Canada and exported it back to the USA when they relized that there was a premium to be made on the market down there.

Prices will probally not rise here, more likely product will just disapear.

Somone I know well from the USA asked me where he could by 223 ammo. I told him that, I had no idea and asked him why he wanted more (he had 8 cases). He said he was buying it for the purpose of using it as currency incases things head south. If even 5% of the nation starts to think that way, you are looking at months or years of shortages.

Thank you for the heads up. Very honest...

How is the supply of 7.62x39?

There's enough ammo for everyone when everyone chills out. The US needs to chill out. Every 4 years this happens and it's exhausting.

If people haven’t seen this coming they have been living under a rock, get it now if you need it.

[Foxer2373]

Not to hijack and I know it’s not your business either but mark my words.

Mid to mid/high level optics are going to be the next to disappear off vendor shelves, with limited and delayed restocks.

Do we know who did this? I get it from a business sense but as a sport shooter in Canada wiping out our stocks to turn a quick profit south of the border doesn’t sit well with me. Again I get the business sense but for those of us planning our purchases that pretty much destroys our ability to get our hands on product we’ve been budgeting for and slowly buyer.

Sob story and mini rant over.
