Ha ha.

I noticed the bare ammo shelves at 2 different Academy locations in DFW beginning back in September. The lack of shot shells for typical hunting needs just didn't make sense. I asked one of the salespersons if this was all they had and he indicated that it was. While looking at decoys I noticed a huge amount of ammo piled up on pallets. I started digging through and found the cases of the shells that I was looking for. I figured they were just re-arranging inventory and didn't think anything about it. I went to a different Academy a week or 2 later and encountered the exact same scenario except that I didn't bother to ask a salesperson and went straight to the big shelves in back to find the shells. The situation has not changed at either store as of last week. They still have same amount of shelf space (half empty) for ammo yet they keep it all piled up in cartons on pallets in the back by decoys and dog gear. I was just looking for shot shells but there was plenty of other ammo as well. I have no idea why they started doing this and wonder how many people have walked out empty handed when they did not find the ammo they were looking for on the shelves. Defies logic but I don't think it has anything to do with a run on ammo.

my buddy works for academy and i asked him about this and he told me that they cant keep anything on the shelves... everyone wants ammo... he said as soon as they stock it... it sells...

if i was runnin the place i'd have it all out in the open for people to pick through!

im goin to walmart!

There's a place in Royse City that sells ammo called Native Outdoors. You may give them a try.
