:-) You know ol' Hickock likely leans a little to the right.

Bought a few rounds of ammo from a contact I met on Gun Broker last month
I asked what "deals" he had on 9mm right now. He told me the prices have gone up a bit recently and could not really help me with any deals right now.
He did give me a lead. He said they are selling it cheaper than he can.Not cheap (like the good old days) but reasonable comparatively speaking. Kansas City Metro Company. Bought a "box" from them.

After months of dicking around, my buddy has finally got his press up and running again. Thank God.

I've bought fishing and duck and goose gear for years from Rodger's. Good knowledgeable advice can be found from those guys too.

There's a "Freedom of the Press" joke in there somewhere.

It was a little rainy here this morning. I had the steel target pistol range all to myself at Ben Avery Shooting Range, the largest outdoor shooting range in the country. It was a good morning.

I got my hands on 400 larger rifle primers this morning.
Ive been looking since I contacted you about it.
I laid out 740.00 for the Rem Model 81 and have been forced to just looking at it.
Were just a day or so away from finally being able to feed it.
Nice to hear your press is back in the game.

Semi off subject but any of you use electronic ear protection when hunting? My kid came home from Afghanistan with some hearing loss but wants to bow hunt. Anybody have anything good to say about Walkers game ear or Howard Leights or others? Something that has directional hearing but can also be used at the range for hearing protection? TIA

I don't know what the supply .guns and ammo. is like back east but their isn't a serious
rifle or pistol to be found. The ammo supply no longer exist. Don't waste anything. Just a word to the wise.

Yeah, I don't get it as well. According to most of the manufactures (Remington, Winchester, etc) they are working at double speed - 7 days a week to put out PLENTY of ammunition yet, where the hell is it?

Granted, there are a lot more gun owners today than there has been in the last 50 or so years but, C'mon. If the ammo plants were actually working that hard, they should have little trouble keeping up with demand - if what they say about their production rates is true.

I sometimes wonder if this "shortage" isn't reminiscent of the middle 70s and the phony "gas shortage" that I lived through. Not enough oil, while tankers sat in the Gulf waiting to be off loaded.....

Just a thought.

I use Howard Leights and love them. On a side note - it always made me chuckle a littler bit. Back in the 60s When I was in the Army - they were ape-shit crazy during Basic Training about ear plugs. I mean APE SHIT crazy. Don't have your ear plugs? You just might receive an Article 15.

Arrived in Viet Nam. The first thing they told us - "Get rid of those damned ear plugs"

:-) :-)

I doubt the media will do any investigative reporting about this. Yeah, we've heard what the CEO said in the video, but I'm sure he'd lawyer up and claim he has no idea what happens to his product once it leaves his docks.

Something doesn't smell right here, we're hearing a lot of excuses (like hunting rounds such as 243 and 30-06 have been sacrificed in production in favor of 223), but then none of us is stepping up and saying that they're seeing the ammo.

It seems like after most of the trucks leave the manufacturer's loading docks they drive into a lake.

I gotta wear earplugs at work, normally on the job I use the most comfortable foam ones. But they have a box of ones called Moldex Jetz that I grab a handful of packs every time I go shooting. They work great and are supposed to be reusable
