Dang you hoarders!

[Arcamm]

I ordered some .40 and .45 from Cabelas. Just got the .40 but the .45 is back ordered!

I guess it doesn't really mater. It's not like I have anything to shoot either of them with anyway.

Frosh me! Just can't win these days......

So basically, you're hoarding too (when you get the opportunity), right?

Great post...




In regard to the OP, it's basically 2009 all over again. Same exact scenario with the ammo shortage. It'll die down in a few months.

Hmmmm..... thank god the OP is not looking for a LE901.

Why are you buying ammo for firearms you don't have?
Are you waiting to pick them up?

The true hoarders got it cheap, and stacked deep, when the timing was right. Live and learn.

One thing I've learned is I always wish I'd bought more. Lead is a precious metal when enclosed in brass with a powder charge.

This is all panic buying.

Froshen A I am! It's just the opportunities are slim.....

I'm an optimist! The ammo is for firearms I own, but the Not-So-Free state of Maryland won't let have. I'm past my 7 day "cooling off" period and 6 days into my "boiling over" period on the .45. Still cooling off on the .40.

Frosh me

I was at the Cabelas in Hamburg today. They had a 40 & 45 on the shelf.

 

[Knuckles]

I might go get in line now for Cabelas Black Friday 2013... I suppose they would have an ammo "Door-Buster" & I bet I would be 1st in line!

During times like this, I'm glad I have lots of ammo and a wife bitching about it than a lot less ammo and the wife not bitching.......

So tell me, what was it like in the bad old days... You'd just mosey on over to Walmart/Bass Pro and saunter over to the shelf and meander up to the counter???

Or maybe just cuz it was too cold/raining out and it was Monday, with no plans to go back to the range until Satuday, get online, one click over to your "go-to" site and 2 clicks you're done??

Geez this is like trying to find Elmo 2 weeks before Christmas. At least with that, you knew in a freaking month it would be everywhere again.

I can't believe all the combing I do online right now. These sites should just post what they have, instead of all this darn window shopping . The worst part is when you scroll down and the thing you want is 1 past the "in stock" notice.

Yes, I am late to the party. Its ok. Geez just one time, I'd like to feel like a kid in a candy store like you old timers have.

 

[ShallNotInfringe]

Oh yeah, and Arcamm, if I run across any 40 or 45, I am getting you some.

 

[Along]

.45 seems like the hardest to find at the moment. I have seen .40 several places, locally, SoMD. 9mm once, but no .45, probably because that is what I am looking for.

 

[ma_deuce]

I've got enough ammo to last me quite awhile, but I still can't stop hunting. Snagged some CCI Select last night off GB for pretty much the pre-Madness gun store price, plus shipping. I keep looking, but I won't buy at ridiculous prices.

 

[Mike3888]

Bring them to me. I will do some quality control while you are waiting on your guns..

My wife walks in and sees the two boxes, smiles and said, "Oh, I see you got some ammo." I said "Yes, but it's for your pistol." She said "good!" and left the room.

When I was a kid, you could get ammo with a gas fillup if it was over 20 gallons.

I find I only go to sites that have an option to show "instock items only". It's a real time saver.

You're my newest best friend!

I have enough to last two years or two realy good days at the range for most of my firearms. But now I have to scrounge for two new calibers.

The greeters at Walmart call me by my first name........

Let me get this straight so I can understand this. You started a thread title "Dang you hoarders", to then tell us that your buying ammonium for guns you do not even own?

He's bought them, he just hasn't been able to take possession of them yet. I'd say trying to get ammo for them now is prudent.
