Paid a dollar a round for 9mm at the range today. So, there's that. ImageImage
It's almost like there's an ongoing ammo shortage or something... thereload.com/manufacturers-…
For context, a dollar a round for 9mm is about 4 times what it was in 2019. So, not great. I only bought and shot 1 box to avoid further depleting my fairly small stash.
If you'd like to read more about why I was at the range and my misadventures with the P365, then check out our member-exclusive email from this morning: thereload.com/members-newsle…
Just got a box of 50 rounds of 9mm from a local store for $30. Of course, they only had 3 boxes and I was only allowed to buy 1 of them.

The construction of this tweet makes it seem like you want people who buy AR-15s (the most popular rifle in the country) to be in jail. Is that your intention, Governor?
The formulation of his tweet is that we should release weed users from jail and replace them with AR owners (or at least ones who buy through private sales) instead. It's a bizarre tweet.
Of course, Wolf supports more than just universal background checks. He has publicly said Pennsylvania should "restrict or eliminate semi-automatic weapons" which represent the vast majority of most commonly available firearms. audacy.com/kdkaradio/arti…

Ammo supply is unlikely to return to normal anytime soon. I spoke with Winchester and Hornady, 2 leader ammo manufacturers, and they both have backlogs that stretch out over 2 years. thereload.com/manufacturers-…
“For those who shoot 9mm and 5.56 ammunition, which are both in high demand, it’s very uncertain how long it will be before people will consistently have ammunition readily available,” Winchester president Brett Flaugher told me. thereload.com/manufacturers-…
Jason Hornady, vice president of Hornady Manufacturing Company, told @TheReloadSite he isn't expecting a slowdown for upwards of two and a half years. That's how long his wait to fill back orders is. thereload.com/manufacturers-…

The United States Concealed Carry Association has 600,000 members. It is now launching a Super PAC to dive deeper into the political arena. thereload.com/americas-large…
“We’re focused on three things: national concealed carry reciprocity, firearms training, and removing barriers that hinder responsibly-armed Americans’ ability to protect themselves,” @USCCA Super PAC chairman Mike Lowney told @TheReloadSite. thereload.com/americas-large…
With the NRA in turmoil, it's easy to see the potential of a group as big as USCCA getting deeper into politics. Their biggest appeal to date has been their concealed carry insurance (which I have) but they are big enough to make real noise. thereload.com/americas-large…

In the fight over the NRA's future, one board member has a plan to oust Wayne LaPierre and avoid dissolution. He's in a mad dash to raise $100k over the next week to fun his last-ditch effort. thereload.com/one-board-memb…
Phillip Journey wants to appeal the decision to throw out the NRA's bankruptcy. He wants a trustee appointed to take over the group and then a committee of NRA members to direct the reorganization. thereload.com/one-board-memb…
He says trust needs to be restored in leadership after CEO Wayne LaPierre admitted to diverting hundreds of thousands to his personal expenses and skipping compliance training among other things. He was shocked at what came out during the bankruptcy trial.

The NRA's bankruptcy was dismissed on Tuesday. So, what's next for the nation's largest, most influential gun group? Nothing good. thereload.com/experts-paint-…
Experts say the NRA has little room to file an appeal and their options in bankruptcy court are likely exhausted for now. That means they'll have to fight Attorney General Letitia James (D.) in New York court where the bankruptcy probably hurt their case. thereload.com/experts-paint-…
"Bottom line, the gambit failed miserably, and I think it actually made dissolution more likely," University of Pittsburgh professor and non-profit expert Philip Hackney told @TheReloadSite. thereload.com/experts-paint-…
