Gun and Ammo prices

[Zombie Steve]

Scrounged about 25 pounds of wheel weights today. I'll probably mix it with the roughly 70 pounds of straight lead a buddy brought over the other day and make a decent alloy.

I guess I'm somewhere around 6 cents a shot for .45's since I started casting.

I don't know nuttin' about 45GAP, I'd trade up to 45ACP but that's just me.

When I had pistols in 357Sig I bought my ammo at Walmart, it was the least expensive local place. 357Sig is a tremendous cartridge but it is expensive and LOUD indoors.

I just had to have the glock 45gap. I also have several glock 45acp black and OD :-) I love my 45. Actually I love all glocks lol. Need more OD glocks.

I have been a glock guy since the 1990 :-). I don't talk bad about other weapon systems, but the glock system is best for me. So like father like son. My son is a glock guy to lol.

Back to the original question: "Why do guns and ammo rise in price"?
Guns- a commodity like anything else. Demand and supply. The post election frenzy was based on speculation, people speculated that Obozo would drop the hammer on firearms. When the next rattle of pending legislation comes out it will be the same.
Ammo- all of the above reasons plus the cost of raw materials. Lead and copper are not getting any cheaper.

I'd expect Obozo to try something in the next 14 months.

Transportation costs (diesel fuel, tires) play a role in the price of ammo, ammo is heavy last I checked.

You're a Glock person I am not although I was looking hard at a Glock 17 GEN1 at the last Tanner show, I had a GEN1 when they first came out.

I am hoping to pick up an OD 17, 19, 20, 22, 27 or 29 lol. All are easy to shoot and learn. Glock armorer since 1991.
