There is a lot of talk going on in the gun news and reviews world regarding the possibility of an ammo shortage, particularly in the United States. Some people are predicting an ammo shortage that will lead to gun owners across the country taking their guns out of storage and storing them up until they can get more, and start producing them again. That could be a disaster for the economy, since gun sales are a major source of revenue for gun manufacturers. If there is a major shortage of ammo, gun makers may not be able to pay their workers, or make enough sales to balance their books, which would cause them to either go out of business or have their products re-supplied. You can check out this helpful article to know more.
So what's going on? Why are gun owners across the country worried? Is there a reason other than the fact that we're currently experiencing an unusually active spring in the national gun ownership debate that there might be a lack of steel cased ammo? The answer to that question might surprise you. There is no reason to worry because there is no reason to expand...
First of all, it looks like the gun manufacturing industry is feeling the pinch, because as the end of the year approaches, some large manufacturer that was recently struggling with manufacturing are now saying they are going to expand, or start producing more for the spring.
Well, aside from the fact that they're supposed to be expanding their inventory to meet demand, and to help offset the cost of their new product (they didn't mention how much exactly), they also said that they "may begin exporting to eastern Europe, in what may become a broader distribution area." This is a very dangerous game to play right now. Especially since they're in a very fragile economic state, this could cause them to go broke very quickly, and cause even more problems for the rest of us. Another company, Stengler, seems to have problems making it in the U.S. right now because of the new ammo tax, which actually went into affect last week. If this was going to start the rush to get guns manufactured, then it sure did start immediately.
Even if you don't care about gun news and reviews, this news and reviews article should interest you. The problem is, most gun magazines tend to lean left on issues, so this article is being published right on the "pro-gun" side. This opens up a debate, as to whether gun makers should make more ammo, and gun control. And it's a valid debate, although some argue that we need gun control.
One thing I would like to point out in the gun news and reviews article is the fact that not everyone agrees with their views, or is saying the right things. And you can't please everyone all of the time. We have our own personal preferences, and that's why we get a gun gadget. It's our own darn business, but the government can't tell us what to do with our guns.
