NOT to argue, just my observation:

This pic was taken 3-27-20 at my LGS
This is part of a cabinet/shelves with handgun ammo;
NO 9mm ammo.

IN same cabinet just to R of 9mm slot on 2nd shelf is 40 SW ammo.

This is JUST 1 day and I have not been back to check on REsupply and stocking.

Yes, Sample of 1 but done for my needs. I bought 1 box of 40 SW ammo.


On a parallel subject. In the 90s I discovered that During Hunting season IF you had
a 54 Cal Muzzleloader you could find/get things you could NOT find in 50 Cal.

I stopped by cabela's to pick up another box or two, (just topping off) 9mm was made of unobtanioum, but my rifle ammo, .450 Bushmaster, was available in 4 varieties.
