See...there’s a silver lining in everything. They are not going to stop selling ammo until there supplier is out of product !! That is from a manager who orders ammo every week !

Belt Fed Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 This "used" to be a small town I live close to, then the white flight from the big city happened and "BOOM" it's way overcrowded now. I won't get into the piss poor city management of letting a city grow without proper roads built but anyway, the small shops they flourished from all the newcomers. K Mart was the only game in town and they were doing well, then Wal mart decided to build a huge store here. the small shops and kmart died. Then they decided to build a neighborhood market up the road and boom, all the small grocery stores in the area died. Now we have 5. yes 5 dollar general stores in this one city. those places are like a plague, they are going up everywhere and in places you wouldn't think a store could make it.

Sears and Roebuck since 1893 as just one example. Growing up in 1970's small town Ohio the small local grocery store DOUBLED the price of sugar during canning season :-).
