I was one of those people when the shortage of .22lr first started. You live, you learn.
At least you learned....I still know people, people with $$$$, who have just a few boxes of ammo. These same people pissed and moaned through the ammo blackout. One offered to buy 1k of .223 from me for $2K...two bucks a round. I turned him down, I'm not in the ammo business. Like I always preach, buy a little more than you need for a practice day and squirrel that little bit away. I still have 9mm ammo marked $2.99 a box. Stinks like sh*t when I shoot it, but it works, and I'm not paying $14.99 a box for ball 9mm.

Political Correctness is a doctrine, recently fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and promoted by a sick mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a piece of shit by the clean end!
