going into combat with 36 grain 22 is suicide......

true, better than nothing. Actually I noticed that there's a 50 grain 22 magnum round out there. That wouldn't be bad. But 5.56 is minimum for me.

Just come back from the nearest Wal-Mart.
PLENTY of ammo, however...

NO .22lr and NO .223.
Otherwise everything was fully stocked.
SWIK purchased ammo there just in case.

ALL THE AMMO Is Gone!

Walmart just informed all their stores in a memo to stop ordering ammo because there was no way they could fulfill any more orders.

Bass Pro is Back-ordered at least 4 months on .22lr and 12 months on 9mm. Police Departments are looking at legislation to seize existing stocks because they have nothing left for themselves... SHIT IS GETTING REAL!!

My local Wal-Mart limited me to three boxes 22lr today. Guess I'll see what my friend and I can find tomorrow (12:01 AM).

Been to over 25 gun shops the last two weeks, mainly out of curiousity. I don't shoot much anymore and have more than enough for my limited needs. Just watching this whole train wreck unfold is facinating.

.223 and 5.56 are nowhere to be found. Not one single round. It is coming in, but is bought up almost immediately. Stores that have good relations with overseas suppliers are getting a regular flow of 7.62x39, but that is going fast too. If I had a rifle in the caliber, I would be pretty confident you will see more as there are warehouses all over the world filled with commie surplus just waiting to import.

9mm is getting scarce real fast, as is .357. I still see some .45, and I see .40 almost everywhere.

.22 LR has really been hit hard lately. Good luck finding a brick of 555 or 333 - both are grabbed almost immediately. Sometimes 50 round boxes are available however.

30-30 is still available, as is a little 30-06.

If you have an obscure caliber rifle or handgun, you better stock up now. It will be a while before they produce odd-ball sizes with all the demand they have for common calibers.

I see plenty of bird shot and slugs, all sizes. However, buck shot is getting thin, particularly 00 and #4.

As far as rifles, I hear stories of AR variants coming in everywhere and being sold out almost instantly. I have not seen a single one on the shelves. Same with Glocks and other popular auto handguns. I did actually see an AK in one store (Century WASR), but it was being sold as I stood there. 10/22 Rugers are scarce, but other .22s are available (savages, marlins). Surprisingly I also see a lot of "tactical" .22s on the shelves. Plenty of shotguns and mossin nagants everywhere.

Magazines are hit or miss. You will not find a high capacity 9mm, AR, or AK mag anywhere. But smaller mags are available for some guns. For some reason I see Sig mags everywhere unsold - why I do not know.

We knew this was comming when the Department of Homeland Terrorists ordered some 1.4 Billion rounds. So if there is a 4 month backlog then the shit may hit the fan within the next 4 months.

That gives everyone on GLP a new timeline now.

I just watched a ton of .223 and 40 sw come into my local Walmart.

Also, they limit purchases to 3 boxes so some jackass doesn't clean them out.

I picked up my 3 boxes of .223 and a box of .40.

Once the hoarders figure they have enough ammo and most stores have measures to prevent hoarding - the shortage will blow over.

22lr is good for hunting small game, but is illegal just
about everywhere for deer.

it is only a step above a pellet gun for home defense.

it is a cheap practice round, i suppose.

that being said, i wonder why so many people are going
so damn crazy for that round. they buy it as soon as
it hits the shelf like it is a drug????

i guess i can understand the run on 9mm and other common rounds.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33153695

You know very little about .22LR. I guarantee you don't want shot with one. it is the favorite of most hired killers in a book I read a while back. Less mess and the bullet will bounce around inside the skull several times
 Quoting: TDJ


i have a cousin that told me of this book.

i could believe that a marksman/sniper can do alot of
damage with a 22lr, but the fact is that police and military
do not carry such small calibers for a reason.

i have never seen the thousands of cops, that i have met,
carry a 22.

some le even think that 38 or 9mm is not enough and like a 45 bullet.

Again, the less popular calibers are still available in some areas. But now that the most common stuff is gone, those will be next.

Here is a chance of a lifetime to actually own THE ammo and powder factory.
