Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

Default Has anyone noticed a shortage of cheap .45ACP?

I usually pick up a couple boxes every payday at Sportsmans Warehouse in Albuquerque, but their supply has been steadily dwindling and last week when I went in they had no cheap blasting .45ACP ball at all. No Wolf, CCI Blazer, Winchester White Box, UMC, Eagle, Independance, etc.

All they had was the high dollar magic bullet loads.

Is this a new trend? Should I panic and order some online? Maybe it is best to start stocking up on reloading supplies again...like during the primer shortage of the early 90's.

Thanks for the offer. I appreciate it.

I haven't checked wallyworld yet, but with Sportsman's Warehouse being out of stock, it's something that concerns me. Maybe unduly.

But hey, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get your ammo.

Perhaps the gun grabbers have changed tactics while we've all been busy buying up parts kits?
