Man there's a bunch of entitled crybabies on this site.

I don't see anyone saying they should be able to buy at cost. The primary concern here is manufactured panic, which is an unethical manipulation of the free market.

In the stock market it would be a kind of pump and dump scheme. Hype up the product with half truths and rumors, then dump it at an inflated price.


So they are gonna import more Russian ammo????


The gov already halted permits for Russian ammo in August. The price jumped a little to 40 CPR, and settled back down to 30 CPR.

Guess I'm done buying through them. He can hold onto his inventory if he wants.

SG ammo hasn't been competitive since pre-COVID. Plenty of places to buy 7.62x39 for 30-35 CPR right now.

The market should set the price free of rumor and panic.

A distributor or retailer spreading panic without any evidence or proof is a unethical sales tactic.

Heres an example. A restaurant sells hotdogs. The owner gets an awesome deal on bulk hotdogs if he buys a lot more than usual, and to sell them all he lies to his customers and says the hot dog factory burned down and there won't be any more hotdogs in a week. If you like hotdogs, you better buy them now because this is your last chance. People go crazy, buy hotdogs by the box, freeze them, and keep them. The restaurant sells six times as many hot dogs as normal due to the demand.

Do you think the restaurant owner committed a fraud?

Which poses more problems. The price goes up for everyone because panic spreads to all retailers, and those retailers raise their prices due to the panic.

One person with information in the market, whom we trust, and they have special insider knowledge, spreading rumor and panic only causes damage to the free market. It is an unethical manipulation.

And we already don't live in a truly free market.

Holding back inventory is why the lumber market went retarded. It's an artificial manipulation of the price if goods. In fact since so many want to talk about capitalism let's go look what Hayek and Smith had to say about price.

The owner gets an awesome deal on bulk hotdogs if he buys a lot more than usual, and to sell them all he lies to his customers and says the hot dog factory burned down and there won't be any more hotdogs in a week. If you like hotdogs, you better buy them now because this is your last chance. People go crazy, buy hotdogs by the box, freeze them, and keep them. The restaurant sells six times as many hot dogs as normal due to the demand.

Do you think the restaurant owner committed a fraud?


But he's not selling it at the moment?  Maybe you should buy up everyone else's stock since its such deal


Which poses more problems. The price goes up for everyone because panic spreads to all retailers, and those retailers raise their prices due to the panic.

One person with information in the market, whom we trust, and they have special insider knowledge, spreading rumor and panic only causes damage to the free market. It is an unethical manipulation.

And we already don't live in a truly free market.


Do you think that this administration will hesitate to stop importation of Russian ammo under these circumstances?

I have been buying Barnaul %.56 from them as the prices settled down after covid.
I wanted some steel case to save my brass stuff for later, as a hedge against this type of mess.
5.56 was actually a newer caliber for me, I had shot 7.62 until recently.  
I may trade some stock of 7.62 to up my supply of 5.56 as I shoot more with that caliber.

Should I sell my stock cheaper because I loaded up during very cheap times for 7.62?
I will need to sell it at market, so I can get what I need.

Sam gonna Sam....ammo will be on auction at Gunbroker shortly. That's usually the way he deals with these things.

And really, I don't care, I support capitalism and a free market.

And I have a hella ammo fort I bought when it was 200 bucks a case for x39.

Lol, I know, right? It is what it is, do business with him, or don't. He is no longer the best place to buy on line, for whatever reason. Either he will stay in business or he won't. Seen many an ammo vendor go the way of the Dodo, he could be next. I hate to see it because he seemed like a good guy.

Seems about right… finished my M92 SBR less than an hour ago.  I have had it on a stamp for 8 years and the week I finish it off the 7.62x39 will start drying up.

It’s the only caliber I not equipped with enough of to shoot weekly for a year.

Nobody ever said that. You are creating straw man arguments to pretend you know what you're talking about.

The issue at hand here is not the dudes inventory. Its him spreading panic.

He didn't put a notice of what he was doing on his site, or in an email blast. That looks like it was a personal message to someone.  Everyone knows that Russian ammo will end after the current contracts are filled, because of last year's sanctions. New sanctions could easily cut of the spigot off right now

Remind me why more American ammunition manufactures other than PSA don’t make 7.62x39 for example.  
They apparently churned out plenty of that oddball caliber for Glocks without too much trouble.  Surely there is enough demand.

Because starting up a line of steel case ammo wouldn't be cost effective against cheaper Russian imports?

I know Ammoseek.com is pretty good about vetting out scam sites, but now I'm starting to think they're possibly a scam
NEVER heard of anyone selling ammo by the 20 FOOT DAMN CONTAINER load to civilians

ETA: they're permanently closed and their address is a church surrounded by tennis courts....

Freedom Munitions used to sell ammo by the pallet, don't know if they still do.

The market should set the price free of rumor and panic.

A distributor or retailer spreading panic without any evidence or proof is a unethical sales tactic.

Heres an example. A restaurant sells hotdogs. The owner gets an awesome deal on bulk hotdogs if he buys a lot more than usual, and to sell them all he lies to his customers and says the hot dog factory burned down and there won't be any more hotdogs in a week. If you like hotdogs, you better buy them now because this is your last chance. People go crazy, buy hotdogs by the box, freeze them, and keep them.

And questions back:

1.  What prevented you from being proactive with a historical knowledge of shortages and not loading up on your favorite dogs?

2.  Who forced you with violence to purchase hot dogs from said pretend vendor?

3.  Is it your business what someone does with their personal property?

4.  Do you always blame others for your lack of foresight?

5.  Will you show up at my doorstop demanding my hot dogs?
