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.

If you know how to shoot you can substitute .22LR for most rounds and save the big stuff for when TSHTF.

Us Combat Veterans have Stock Piled .22 Long Rifle & 12 gauge Slug/Buck/Bird shot

Why is it the "Non-Combat Folks" need Beowolf .50cal

My 6 Combat Tours taught me, that all I need is .22 & 12ga.


And unlike most Joe's, "Nobody Survives My Firefights"...mainly because I dont want to reincounter them later, but mostly because I enjoy the Thrill.

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!!

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32328802



Once the hoarders figure they have enough ammo and most stores have measures to prevent hoarding - the shortage will blow over.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1640514


Sorry but these shortages are here to stay. The shortages from 2008 took years and still never completely got back to normal. This time will be even worse and I suspect some of these companies will implode. There are already rumors of union strikes at these ammo companies because of increased production hours.

This has only begun!

Because it does not have the penetration power. A .22 isnt the round of choice to shoot threw shit.. but it will kill someone just as good.. military does not have to worry about price or weight as much as your everyday civilian..

Ammo is damn hard to find right now..

You can find it but it's double the price it was 3 months ago and shipping will take 2 or 3 weeks at least..

In a month?

What's left for sale will be 3 times the price it is now..

It's worth getting the good stuff now I'd say..

Yall just sat around for the last year watching "Preppers" buy stock piles of ammo and yall made "dumby post" about them, and now there is "NO AMMO" available.

Us Preppers did not stop at ammo, we also loaded the house with Food/Water/Toilet Paper/Coffee/Liquor and planted Gardens and started raising Rabbits & Tilopia.

Yeah, I was thinking of that too in central Mexico and even got a tree, but I found out that a tree will only produce enough for about one coffee pot of coffee per year.

But then I found out that peoples over there in Kenya prefer to make a tea from coffee leaves, which are full of caffeine and more abundant than the beans.

But I still don't see the coffee plant being practical in survival, unfortunately.

In combat the first thing one does is try and get behind cover. 22lr will not penetrate that cover. Minimum for me is 5.56. Others like 7.62x39, no argument from me.....

My wife's best friend is a senior manager for a Walmart Super center. She got off the phone with and I had her ask about this. Everyone believing that they are freezing the purchase of more AMMO is WRONG! They are still getting it in but it's just slow because of the sudden demand, and they are limiting the amount you can purchase that is true. So get off it, and find somewhere else to buy you bullets.
