Gun and Ammo prices

[Atrain1]

Is their any reason to believe that Gun and Ammo prices rise? Or will ammo become hard to get like it was awhile back?

I need to get some 45GAP and 357 SIG before it does go up in price.

I have noticied almost all ammo prices have increased, or at least at Wal-Mart. Federal made the jump along with winchester. 45acp went up almost $3/per box! I did happen to notice the other day that Federal was now making "Bulk pack" ammo in 9mm. It was like $19.97 a box of 100. That puts it where it used to be.

Bulk (100rnd box) 9mm WWB was 32.95 at dicks on monday, and UMC was 14.99 a box. go figure....

Stock up now and learn how to roll your own.

Ammo yes, guns no.

The Obama fear drove gun sales and production through the roof. If anything, I think the price on new firearms is going to decrease in the next 2-3 years unless new legislation is put in place that directly inhibits the production or sale of certain models... and something like having to fill out a form if you buy 2 or more at a time won't count.

That is my opinion anyway.

I thought about getting a dillion progressive press to roll my own LOL. Any suggestions?

I view my guns as a hedge against inflation. Put your $1000 in a gun, and that gun will be worth $2000 20 years from now.

Keep $1000 in cash, and your cash will feel like it's worth $500 20 years from now.

I like guns and ammo better than gold because....good luck beating someone to death after a complete societal collapse with a bar of gold. In the long term, gold is a better bet because it won't rust or wear out. In the medium term, guns and ammo are a better bet for me.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but Murdoch's Ranch & Home Supply in Littleton is having a sale on all PMC Ammo (223A, 9MM, 40 S&W, 45 and 380)...10% off. I've only bought the 9mm in the past which is normally 12.99 for 50, so it should be about 11.70. Also 10% off Federal Centerfire Rifle and Shotgun Shells. Prices good thru 10/30. I'm swinging by tomorrow so if you need me to check a price, let me know.
