Who needs guns if there's no ammo? Guess those Starbucks lattes cost more when your head's in the sand. Dessert coffees?

I dont think gun prices will change much. Too many competitors, someone will be willing to sell cheap which means they all have to try to sell cheap.

Back in February I bought 500 rounds of the Remington Viper Hyper Velocity 22LR for $26.99 at Midwayusa. Mid summer I went to order more and they were out of stock. I just got a notification that they were back in stock for $69.99. Over 250% price increase. If you can find ammo/components now, better stock up.

If President Trump does lose, perish the thought, firearms prices may well be the very least of our troubles. True that Wabi.
Due to the increased price of ammo, don't expect a warning shot...

I took the opportunity to get rid 9ff a bunch of factory ammo i paid too much for before the 2016 election. I kept a few thousand rounds of most stuff in case of emergency but also kept enough reloading stuff to get myself and my kids by for a long time. I was lucky to have a few primers on hand before they all disappeared.

I was pleasantly surprised that the local shops are NOT gouging. I bought 500 rounds of 9mm last week for $168.00 including tax. 250 rounds of Remington and 250 rounds of Winchester 115gr ball. I’ve been stocked up for years but we shoot and practice a lot so basically what I buy now is for training and I don’t have to touch the ammo that’s put up for a rainy day.
