walmart didnt put any gun shops out of business, their prices are comparable to any other outlet, the markup on firearms is low and most gunstores make their money on the accessories such as ammo, holsters, scopes and shit

For 9mm I just have my GLOCK 19 gen4. It shoots shitty 115gr ammo as long as you dont limp wrist it. I want more Federal HST 124gr +P but I cant find it.
I just checked freedom ammo they dont have it. Is freedom also their brand of ammo? I noticed they have Hornady but I dont really want that brand.

dont use +p ammo in a glock unless you buy a good aftermarket barrel, nearly all the exploded glock pics you see are fucked up reloads or +p ammo

I'm not worried about it really. I went up and down glocktalk asking everyone and they all use +p or even +p+. Also, I'm not shooting it regularly, I strictly have it for self defense and I dont have the money to practice with anything except target ammo.

Freedom is a small manufacturer or something along those lines. They make bullets and they remanufacture them (remans are cheaper, obviously). I'm not sure what collaboration they have going with Hornady, but it seems to be they use Hornady for the SD/HD rounds. The Reman rounds are a mix of many different cases, they have a brass exchange program where you can get your ammo discounted by sending them your brass, which they reload. A box of new ammo is all in matching case (can't remember the stamp info but it's basically "freedom ammo". The Reman will have everything from Aguila to Remington and Winchester.

Should we keep that many troops if plenty of analysts agree we don't need them?
Let's also not pretend that Obama controls the DHS budget or gives direct orders about ammunition purchases. I'm sure the requests come from the troops and people responsible for monitoring inventory.

Man you guys are suckers. NRA says Obama is gonna take your ammo and then everyone runs out and buys ammo. Considering the NRA is the gun industry lobby, don't you think this may just be a scheme to increase sales and prices at the same time?

What does it matter? Know how long it takes ammo to go bad? Unless you buy it at the very peak rush, do you know how well it holds it's value? The shit is basically gold, just not worth as much pound for pound. Other than people who just do not ever shoot and shove it in a closet for 30 years, it basically doesn't go bad. It's value also remains relatively constant. The only time it doesn't, is when you've jumped on the band wagon way too late and it's current going price has skyrocketed.
Buying in bulk is even recommended regardless of ammo scares and such. A person regularly going to the range goes through a ton of ammo. It's much cheaper to just buy in bulk rather than buy a few boxes every time you go. You can throw that argument around, but it doesn't really hold much weight. Even if the NRA did fear monger us into buying tons of ammo, it's not as if we really lost much (maybe the tax, which doesn't got to the NRA) and in all likelihood we'll be using it anyways.

My point is if you sell a consumable product, generally your sales are determined by the rate at which people consume your product - unless you can convince people that they may not be able to buy it in the future.

That idea doesn't really work in this scenario. Sure people go and start mass buying it, but once prices start getting jacked up, sales decline sharply. It makes no sense to create the panic to fuel sales. Shooting a gun (other than a .22) is kind of expensive. Just one mag in my 45 is about 4-5 dollars (which is gone in about 20 seconds). So us gun nuts tend to be pretty damn cheap and will avoid buying ammo when the prices rise by more than a few bucks per box.
You can create the demand now, but it will NOT last long at all. It will basically only last until prices start to climb. Demand will then stay very low until they drop back down to what we deem acceptable levels. I mean I understand your argument, but in this instance, it really doesn't apply as much as you would think. Vast majority of ammo bought is for range use. If it's too expensive to go shooting, we just don't. Pretty much every single gun owner has a box of HD/SD rounds that they do not take to the range and unless we have to use them in SD/HD they don't really need to be replaced.

Last time i tried to go to the range they said i could only buy one box of 50 rounds of .22
I laughed and said im not paying full price range time to fire 4 mags and then leave
I remember when .22 was all day for 40$
