What the actual fuck. I just can't believe that none of these companies are able to figure out their primer shortage. How difficult is it to make ammo? People can make it at home!

Everyone is talking about Biden's gun bill or whatever, not realizing that without ammo (and affordable ammo to actually practice) gun ownership is pretty much useless. If it costs more than a dollar a round, people will just use guns only for hunting, or will be horribly out of practice and not proficient if they have to defend themselves.

Ammo is as important as the actual weapon.

People especially new gun owners are causing the shortage. I buy a hand gun and two boxes of ammo (100 rounds) now multiply that by millions of guns sold PER MONTH.

In 2020 Americans bought around 40 MILLION guns. That's 4.0 BILLION rounds if they also purchased 100 rounds for those new firearms. Now take that out to the fact that America has over 400 million guns in civilian hands. Getting the point why there is an ammunition shortage?

There is no conspiracy it's supply and demand. What if you added 40 million more vehicles on the roads? Would it be a conspiracy that gasoline would be in short supply with a doubling or tripling of the price?
