Can not find small pistol primers in any brand. Why?

Another run on ammo and guns? I found a few cases of Winchester small pistol primers locally. But, at $49.99 plus tax, I passed. Found a decent amount of ammo, most a bit overpriced.

Maybe all the primers are going to the ammo manufacturers.

Just received a box of 1000 Winchester shotshell primers from Midway. I wasn't in the market for small pistol primers so I didn't look at their stock of them but you might want to check them for the heck of it.

If I only had a penny for every primer I walked by within the last year. Unfortunately there are no pennies available either.

I just checked my own advice for Midway. They have no stock of them and they say no back orders. Sorry for the wild goose chase.

Plenty of large pistol. Small pistol amazingly hard to find at the moment. I'm stocked up pretty solid, but always looking.
