They can sell to the Feds or lose their liscense. Does anyone believe they have a real choice?
Live right. Do right. Demand the same in others. Screw off. Lie and cheat. Have no regard for the actions of others.

We all know what is going on, the government is simply taking all the ammo off the market. They can't get the guns, but there is nothing to stop them from getting all the ammo.

Has anyone thought that the CFO of the ammo companies have realized that with the panic buying and the reselling the prices they have been charging is kind of low? Are the manufacturers stockpiling ammo, waiting for a chance to raise prices before they flood the market?
Panic buying has proven that people will pay more that the prices have been. This is corporate America where the best bottom line on the P&L sheet is the winner.

I think there is some degree of truth in that statement. Also, one factor with "some" calibers is that manufacturers only make production runs during a certain month(s) of the year and that is all they produce for the year based upon normal demand. I can't recall which calibers fall under this production schedule, but there are several non-high demand calibers.
I go to Bone Daddy's for the burgers....yeah, that's why.

I don't believe there is an ammo shortage in the first place. People wait outside of stores every morning and buy it right up. That doesn't sound like a shortage to me. It sounds like hoarding.
