Is it really a liberal vs conservative issue? People hoard ammo anytime a Democrat is elected because they are paranoid nutjobs. Then in 6 months or so the paranoia dies down, no one knocks down any doors to take away anyones guns, supply goes back up and prices drop back to normal for the next 4 years. It's a idiot problem not a political problem. These same people probably still have garages full of toilet paper left over from March.Liberal administrations put a lot of stress on people who make and sell guns and ammo trying to increase production to meet demand.
Its not that they think its going to happen immediatly after a dem takes office....just that democrats will be the ones to do it..someday....and you might as well be prepared.Is it really a liberal vs conservative issue?

And for the record, I am a gun loving nutjob. I'm just not dumb enough to think the scary democrats are coming for my guns and I don't wait for a presidential election to stock up on ammo. Same way I don't wait until AFTER eating taco bell to buy toilet paper.
Or not get out in front of the media and say things like "We are going to tax your guns" "We are going to take your guns" "We are going to place limits on how many guns and how much ammo you can buy" "We are going to put background checks on ammo". Those are the things that drive the panic buying. They are also talking points that I have either heard or read from politicians since Las Vegas.Yeah it sucks....i cant even hardly find.22LR, but you cant blame the citizens for worrying....perhaps they wouldnt if democrats would stand up for gun rights, or hell, rights in general.
You can but it isn't very user friendly to do it and is easy to mess up the priming. Not to mention you can't unstrike the rim where it was originally fired.I started re-loading after the first Obummer shortage.......wish there was a way to reload rimfires.
Nj's gun laws have always been the strictest in the country. The only thing that's changed for the worse here in the past 20 years is the 10rd mag limits after the vegas shooting, but on the flip side they have also streamlined the permit process by about 1,000% so things have actually improved.I'm not too worried here in Ohio, but I watching what's going on in Cal, NY, & NJ
