The Great Ammunition Shortage of 2009...
Advertisements [?]
Anywhere USA - -(AmmoLand.com)- In every corner of the USA, at every gun show and at every gun club meeting we are hearing the same question. Where is all the ammunition?

It seems we are in the dust bowl of all ammo shortages. Store shelves are bare and when new ammo does arrive it is over priced and still sells out in a flash.

We have been flooded with reports of retailers gouging shooters by hiking up the prices. A box of 45ACP on average now goes for $22.00 a box up from $15.50 just one year ago. That is if you can find it.

Even 22 LR ammunition of all things is hard to find.

***snip***

he End is Near:
The end of the Great Ammunition Shortage of 2009 that is. All sources claim that this is just a temporary shortage and that with the increased production coming online at ammo manufactures in the private and government sectors that we should start to see increased availability in the next few months as the supply stream catches up to the demand.
