IMO-This is good news because we have more gun owners. New gun owners. I hope they practice responsibility and do not get discouraged about the ammunition shortage. You can always dry fire, draw and present-keep a good sight alignment. When you do get ammunition try to allocate for a reserve. If you can, find some reliable training. If you can’t get training and you have limited ammunition and can go to the range work on accuracy. Sometimes I go to the range just to confirm zero and work on some drills. Accuracy is the first to suffer when you get adrenalized. Have a great week PSA.
I read that article too and wondered where the author lives that doesn’t allow shipping of ammo. There’s absolutely lots out there. Some is overpriced and some isn’t but it exists. And then there are your local stores. Friday my Academy had a bunch of 9mm, 5.56, 223, some defense .380 and a bunch of 7.62. And I mean boxes and boxes of that. And in the evening after work, not at opening like it was a while back. I chalked it up to the usual media scare tactics. They all do it.
Some places wont ship to illinois in general because of Chicago restrictions, its annoying.
Chicago is annoying
I’m with you tho, how can there be a shortage when you can go to just about any online source and they have cases on hand ready to ship.
have been to the PSA store in Lake Norman NC and there is defiantly no shortage of ammo in some calibers.
plenty of 22lr, 9mm, 40, 223. no 300 AAC and some of the less popular sizes.
have received a couple of emails from target sports on case sales.
and yes the windy city is almost a lost cause.
