There are a lot of ironies when it comes to increased Democrat calls for more gun control — which always happens when they are in power — and corresponding record increases in gun sales, but this one might just be the granddaddy of them all.As reported by “Washington Secrets” columnist Paul Bedard, gun sales hit another record in February as Joe Biden and congressional Democrats once again ramped up calls for new gun control measures, politically exploiting, as they always do, a series of tragic mass shootings.Bedard writes:For the second time in three months, the FBI broke its record for gun sales, concealed carry, .

It's the 9mm ammo that is difficult to find let alone the outrageous prices. "Saving" my stimulus check until things become rational if ever. I don't intend to hold my breath. Plinking has become expensive, very expensive. Then again, practice makes perfect.

If I ever had an AR -- my memory is somehow no better about that than the current President's is about anything -- it was lost in an unfortunate canoeing accident, but Dementia Joe said we should buy a shotgun, so that's what I'm looking at now. Maybe a Mossberg Retrograde if I can find one.

I'm seeing more ammunition on the shelves these last couple weeks. It still goes fast, but its staying longer than it was. Prices are still ridiculously high. The only way I would pay those prices is if I didnt have any tucked away. I wandered into one place that had .308 FMJ for 2.50 a shot, and some specialty 12 ga for $60 for 5. I wandered right back out.

Picking up my AR tomorrow. Was able to find some nice Wolf (Russian) ammo for it at only $70 for 100. I know it's steel case and expensive compared to the old days but it will work. So my check is also helping the Russian economy.

The .223 Remington cartridge has been around since 1963; its slightly higher pressure variant the 5.56 NATO for almost as long. In the past thirty years about 21,000,000 AR-15s have been sold to the American public, and surpassingly few have been used in crime. More commonly modern sport rifles are used to prevent crime. During my adult life I have had several law enforcement and ex-military friends and neighbors, all of whom were and are serious shooters. If I were to have polled twenty of them on the best self defense weapon three decades ago, they'd have told me to get a 12 gauge shotgun, a formidable weapon in any circumstance. Nowadays they unanimously tell me an AR or AK or Mini-14 or something similar beats a shotgun for several reasons, one of which is that not everyone can handle a shotgun. Sport rifles, particularly the (usually) smaller caliber AR-15, barely kick at all (although they are extremely loud; bullets can fly at two and a half times the speed of sound), and could in an emergency to wielded by everyone in the household from young to old. Normal capacity magazines for AR-15s in Free States is 30 rounds, enough to have held off multiple attackers when a pistol would not have sufficed. Plus, most modern sport rifles are lightweight and useful for filling the freezer with antibiotic free game, or for just going out and blasting feral hogs that are destroying farms and ranches wholesale in places like Texas and Florida. And 'yotes. Good fun.

Back when Obama gave guns to the cartel and then tried to ban "repeating" rifles in the same month the stores will full of scary first time buyers. I watched a guy at an outdoor store pull the charging handle and slam the action on his finger. He bled all over floor while the staff kept bringing out towels. This buying frenzy is brought on by the fascist leftist that don't believe the narrative s___ they are shoveling.

Still waiting for my check. Where is it? But here is my theory on buying gins with it. If you buy that AR-15 now you will have to go through a background check. That background check will have your name and address on it and will be used as an open invitation to the FBI or State Police to come to your home to get that weapon when they pass a law or Biden signs an EO outlawing it. When they come to your home they will take that weapon and any other guns you may have there, and your ammunition too.I lost all of my guns in the big duck hunting accident, but I fear buying any new weapon to replace them with as I do not want to go on record as having guns in my home.

When you consider that Antifa and BLM served as the Storm Troopers for the Democrats before they got total control of the federal government, it is no wonder that many citizens feel the need to protect themselves and their families now the Democrats are in total control of the federal government. Since taking office, Biden and the Democrats have acted like totalitarian monarchs with utter contempt for the people under their control.

What's with the AR platform for a puny round? The last time I touched an AR and shot that round was 1968 and put my X on it. When Obama became president I did own a semi-self loader firearm just single shot deer rifles and some handguns. I settled on the Ruger Mini-30 because it shot the common 7.62X39, the AK-47 cartridge. You have to always figure what your enemy might be carrying. I reload all my ammunition I've done it for 50 years and never purchased factory ammo until I bought the Mini-30 now I reload for that too. It's straight forward and works well for deer hunting too. Good luck and happy hunting.

I still suspect that many of these loud gun-grabbing pols actually secretly have lots of stock in various gun and ammo manufacturer companies. They are practicing insider trading, driving up prices and profits and their portfolios with their threats of bans and confiscation.

#7, I think that primer production, being the most difficult and potentially dangerous part of the whole process of manufacturing ammo, is the "long pole in the tent", the limiting factor, very difficult to quickly ramp up. Employees need to be very highly safety trained, and facilities are very specialized to make primers safely. A friend worked in a large ammo plant and he said the primer area was pretty much a clean room operation with only the most skilled operators. And since ammo makers have literally emptied their warehouses, and are running their factories at maximum capacity, they aren't likely to peel off a portion of THE limiting resource, primers, to sell them directly to folks, at the cost of reduced overall ammo output for the factory. Until the shelves are well stocked with ammo, I'm pretty sure that no primers will flow to individuals as components. Powder is similar, but not as bad. Component bullets are totally gone, too. Casting your own works....except that unless you already have your molds, molds are entirely unobtainable, too. I have friends who stocked up on these items after the last shortage, and are sitting pretty, shooting as much as they want, set for years from their own supply. One confounding factor is the millions and millions of new guns purchased in the last couple of years. 40 million guns sold last year, and 12 million so far this year. If each new owner wants two boxes of ammo, a very modest amount, good for perhaps one or two range visits, that would be 5.2 billion rounds, and this considers nothing at all for the 350 to 400 million pre-existing guns. If just 15% of the owners of those 350 million guns buy 100 rounds of ammo, that is another 5.25 billion rounds. All could be shot up in one or two range trips. And reports from friends at gun stores are that people were buying 1,000 rounds that normally bought 100 rounds or 50 rounds. 52 million new guns in the last year and a fourth, and hording of ammo....supply chain cannot cope. Ammo makers will have to expand steadily with this level of gun sales, just to stay even. This will take a while to work through.
