I know the folks on here dont want to turn the law on ammo retailers, but people like this are not your friends. They could be doing their part to end this foolishness, however they choose to take advantage of the same people that have made their business a success.

They said if they didn’t ask that the scalpers put them on line and the guy that was out still wouldn’t have any. I also heard a bottle of beer is $9 on the Strip in Vegas and mix drinks $14-20 a glass. Breakfast for two $60. It’s gotta correct itself at some point. But it’s beyond ridiculous now. Lumber and steel still climbing every day. Last edited by 2500HD; 03/04/21.

One could argue that setting a price higher than anyone will pay is doing thir part to end the nonsense if people stop buying then shelves fill up and manufacturers catch up on back orders The government plans these shootings by targeting kids from kindergarten that the government thinks they can control with drugs until the appropriate time--DerbyDude Whatever.

You could buy inflated priced ammo for less than what an equal amount of primers sold for. I don't want a pickle, I just wanna ride my motorcycle

They didn't have a reason. I told them I wouldn't shop there anymore. If someone else is asking $59, why are you messing with LG Outdoors? Perhaps because the $59 place has none in stock?
