will see if people will finally be getting back to their senses - hope those cases will stay available. this BS has to stop at some price point and a $.60pr is that point.

New shooters have no choice, they never had the chance to stock up. So even if the price is high, they will still buy it. With 5 million new gun owners just this year, we're not gonna see a surplus supply anytime soon. Ammoseek puts brand-name, brass 9mm around the 69 cpr range
 
On the threshold of .64 cents a round. Sucky prediction sucks...

Yep. They make this "The New Normal"... at least for a little while.

What wakes me up with cold sweats is what a Biden Administration will do with ammo sales. Limit amount you can purchase/store/own? Internet sales?

How about reloading components? Primers/powder/projos only for sale to commercial manufacturers of ammunition, who will in turn set sales limits.
I'm picturing those little 20-round Carry Ammo "Jewelry" boxes being cut in half... to 10-round boxes. [frown]

Mandatory computer chip with an embedded gps module in each bullet.
Will see.

I predict- it will be a very sleepy 4 years. :) seriously, Biden is famous for doing nothing. So, it is really the best we can hope for - for nothing to be done or accomplished, at all.

It isn't Sleepy Joe I'm worried about. It's Sleazy Ho, his partner. She's the most liberal, activist trouble-maker among this new Ship of Fools.
 
Someone mind sending me a PM on who Larry is? Don't think I know Larry, unless it's this guy...

I got my license Monday or Tuesday before the election, not exactly ideal. I kick myself for not getting my LTC on my 21st birthday.
I gotta take what I can get.

Sure thing Maura, I'll get right on it!

Larry is the guy with the ammo speakeasy next to the Fenway. Knock twice on the green dumpster, tell him @Admin sent you. He'll look out from the lid, give him the sign, and he'll open the secret door hidden in the bricks.
 
Every time I see "Fiocchi" I hear "Finocchio" in my head and wonder why anyone would name a company that.

Yeah, I’ve met Larry once. He’s kind of a d bag though. I took a quick snapshot before he told me to screw off for not grabbing a deli ticket.

I said something similar back in February and everyone thought I was being far too pessimistic and ammo supplies and prices would reset shortly.

You must have made a ton of money then, with your obvious ability to predict markets, supply chains, and production.

Make money, no, but I did not try to waste money chasing it. Even pre covid, it was not a stretch to see people would up buying heading into an election unless Trump was polling at a 20 to 1 sure thing to win and there was also no end in sight to the rioting and the panic buying that spread.

Going back a couple decades, stocking up before a presidential election year has always been a good idea.

It is the Sandy Hooks and COVID that are the ones you don't see coming.
