    I ordered from TargetSportsUSA on Friday and my order shipped today.



    I have plenty of ammo, but I will shoot less, might not shoot much at all for the foreseeable future.

    The email went out this afternoon.

    Ryan: Wait until you open tomorrow. It was INSANE today. Sold every centerfire pistol. Every AR. Everything to build an AR. So much ammo it makes your head spin. Be prepared.

    SGammo stopped taking new orders


    From SGAMMO.
    Due to overwhelming order volume over the past week we are not currently accepting new orders. We are currently approximately 10 days behind on filling orders and the priority is going to be given to filling existing orders. We will begin to restore inventory later this week once we have a handle on shipping all orders that have been placed so far. In order to aid us in providing faster service, please do not email to ask when your order will ship unless you need to cancel or change the address. UPS will email tracking info the day the order ships and we are working as fast as we possibly can to fill your orders. We have inventory allocated to fill all existing orders, if you have an order in it will be filled.

    Why are people panic buying ammo

    With all the businesses closing, people will have loss of work. Then add in all the panic buying of things they didn't expect to need to buy etc. When the money/rent runs short, They will go after your stuff. I already know of a close friend's house being burglarized within the past week. It's only a matter of time before the looting of stores happen also when people run out of food at home.

    Maybe we’ll get lucky and the unprepared will start paying big money for AR’s soon. I don’t really believe in selling ammo but I’m all about making money off a cheap ass rifle or....2.

    The last time this happened I was in a store. 2 guys were standing there. they got an AK and some cheap 9mm handgun.
    Then they asked for ammo...The guy gets boxes of each puts them on the counter.
    One of them the buyer says what one goes in what gun?
    The guy he knew helping him says Stupid the Big ones go in the big gun! They makes um that way so ya can't mess up!
    My wife almost spit her drink out and walked away giggling.
    They also had a Man who could not write his name so he put a mark. Then they asked the guy with him to witness it. He also put a mark so they had to have someone else witness the witness. Thy come out the wood work
