The 7 million new gun owners, who may have bought more than 1 gun. Plus the people stocking up.

They are starting to catch up as I am seeing ammo available, but it still isn't cheap.

My local spot is selling 9mm for upwards of $1 per round. Crazy.

Now going to the gun range is more expensive than a day of golfing. Shame I took so long in buying my first gun.

I carry a G19, I do have a G17 as well and M&P22 for fun cause ammo is cheap.

My new favorite is my AR10, but on the low side 308 rounds are 1.50 a round....

They were out of 22LR the other day when I dropped into my local gun store. I should have bought another pistol 10 years ago before Maryland passed their new gun laws. I should have gotten two. I hate paperwork. It was bad enough then.

I bought a 50 round box of the Maxx Tech 9mm Luger ammo when I bought my first gun several months ago. I have not fired any yet but my nephew said he likes them. Maybe others with some experience can chime in.
