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.

Instead of being behind on the supply/demand curve, next time it's everywhere and on sale: buy it cheap-stock it deep and stock the fuck up.

It's not a conspiracy.

It's not because of "shitbags" who are hoarding.

It's the supply/demand curve at work: additional pressure due to people who did not stock up when it was widely and cheaply available. It will be again, and you will have an opportunity to correct that mistake. I went into this feeling overly comfortable with over 22,000 rounds of 5.56 and have that sold down to less than 5,000 rounds. I might sell more. There's a lot of new gun owners with no ammo that could use it.

If everyone went out in 2019 and bought the ammo they needed for 2020 and 2021, you'd just have this shortage in 2019. If they aren't making enough rounds for everyone to stockpile now, they sure as shit weren't in 2019.
