I don't panic buy but if I have a little extra money laying around for the right price I may pick up some extras. For example I have an upper that is more of a slow build and I just got the barrel last week. I wasn't planning on buying the BCG and CH that I need to finish it but I had some extra money and decided the PSA Premium BCG at $89.99 with free shipping was a good deal that may not be back again for a while.

No different with ammo, sitting on dozens of cases of 223 [ one large ammo can of loose 223 has 8K rds in it ], 8 cases of 308, 25K in 9mm, 14K in 45acp, 15K in 22lr etc.

Forethought, act, nor react and be found lacking when panic sets in.

Agreed....I see you keep the same stuff as me in my glove compartment..:D

The PSA mags are back in stock and still at $6.99. No gouging at PSA!

I have not been one for panic buying or hoarding. I keep way more defense
ammo on hand than I do target ammo. Just hope projectiles will be available
for reloading the handguns, and SOME of my rifles. Good luck to us all!

For the most part, I have been stocked up on ammunition. Recently, I have been stocking up on reloading components.

even though I qualified expert with the M 16 three times, I considered it a poodle shooter, as I carried the bolt rifle. HOWEVER, to stick a thumb in the antigun weenies eye, I'm buying a Ruger 556 this weekend as a fathers day gift to me...as it's doubtful anyone else will get me a gift :p

Nice rifle! If they try to confiscate it just strip the lower to a bare frame and throw it on the table!
