They were driving it in 2016... Well the election was anyway.

It is kinda moronic actually, like ammo producers are going to stop stamping out brass and loading rounds.
During Obama the atf tried to pull a fast one with 556 ammo so it’s not as dumb as you think. It’s the nature of politics conservatives will always poke at abortion laws and liberals will always poke at gun rights. It’s no coincidence Biden wins and all of a sudden atf is going after pistol braces and 80% lowers

None of this would have taken place if the loudmouthed Biden didn't get on TV and announce that the #1 Gun Hater in America (Robert O'Rourke) would be in charge of gun issues.
I don't believe that Biden himself is a gun hater, but I assume he did it to appease the far left because he needed their votes.. I don't even think Biden will follow thru on that promise now that he has been elected, although I could be wrong....But it was enough to set off 7 million Americans that didn't own guns to go out and buy one and a load of ammo to boot.

I said early on that it was hard to find..I was using that link to show what the normal price was on a box of 25, and how ridiculous the statement of 10x the normal price was..I challenge anyone to post a link where a box of 25 C.D. 9 mm ammo is $350.00

Why are you so fascinated with Critical Defense? I didn’t say all 9mm ammo is 10x the price.

I was alluding to shitty online retailers gouging BS range ammo (Norma, S&B) for $100/box.

Well...I still havent found a site that charges 10x the normal price for ammo
Maybe you could post one?

BTW..I mention CD because that's what I use.. Practicing with range ammo doesn't help.. You need to practice with what you carry

Price has gone down but here’s a screen shot of my cart.

Whats the normal price?

a dollar a round isnt 10 times the normal price I'd bet

You sure do leave out a lot of info

3K for 50 rounds..hahahahahahahahaha..You never linked the site

60 bucks for 50 rounds is $1.20 per round... I know that you could find that same ammo for under 20 cents a round at one point. So call it 20 cents for the sake of math that is 6x what the low price was last year. Not 10x like previously stated, but still ridiculously over priced.

I imagine he was being facetious by implying a 10x price hike. Realistically though, one year ago you could buy ammo like 9mm at less than 1/3 what you can get it for online today. I mean it was under 20 cents and now it is over 60 cents.

That is because of covid and the election. Those prices will not stay that high forever unless there is a literal civil war.

I was exaggerating. Yes.

Lol at bb trying to snipe at the original post.
This was a guy that believed old people would have to live in the dark due to the dreaded, evil "obamabulb" that would cost 50 bucks a pop.

I guess a steady diet of daily stormer fucks up critical thinking skills.

I wasn't ever the person that posted the site. Go back and look at who you were begging for a link, it wasn't me.


However, since you are bothering me about it I will do the google work for you just this once.

Thats not the site in question..But thanks anyway..$1.09 per round...doesnt seem exorbitant to me...A little high, but certainly not 10x the normal price

Sorry for the mixup
