 Hey there friends. Thanks for checking in. I recently made a video speaking about why there was a decrease in gun sales In the month of February and there are many reasons why primarily the lack of ammo and the cost of ammo and then you have the lack of guns and the increased price of guns and ammo and then you look at the Joe senile biden administration and the potential for what they could do in that top of that It's near impossible to Sustain the record numbers that we have seen in the past year But many people are still buying guns But I had so many comments of people mentioning. You know what we need to just stop buying ammo We need to stop buying ammo. They compare it to the toilet paper situation in the beginning of the scandemic when people were hoarding toilet paper and Buying for friends and family and they were rushing off to the stores when they heard that there were toilet paper Rolls on the shelves they went out and bought it and we're seeing the exact same thing So I I see that comparison and I find it valid But do I think that just stop buying ammo will help ease the situation for the future and The short answer that I have is no, I don't think that's going to happen Primarily because everybody is in a different position in terms of ammo you have people out there who say I saw this coming It was no surprise It's a roller coaster with ammo and guns. Okay, depending on what administration is in there depending on the situation Like and I I prepared, you know box here box there We've said it several times on the channel many people didn't listen and they're short Also, if you look at why are people buying ammo? Okay, so you know come on dude Of course people want to shoot it. Well people actually are not shooting the ammo that they're buying They're sitting on it. All right. Why are they sitting on it because of uncertainty and fear of what the future is gonna look like We don't know if this is gonna end in a month or three years in a month And so the uncertainty of it is where people just they're not shooting their guns They make you go to a gun range and you used to see the lines of people You know, like there wasn't a free lane available and then all of a sudden Now people are shooting maybe a mag maybe two mags to function check a gun and that's it And you have all these new gun owners that want to shoot their gun a couple times and feel like they're Rambo in their own house and They're not necessarily shooting it because you can't you can't replenish it quickly now I recently picked up 200 rounds of PMC Bronze and I'm my plan is to shoot that all right I'm going to shoot it because I've got some things I want to do here on video and I The way I look at it is I have to shoot that if I want to keep this whole thing going But many people are not and so you're watching the training Market decrease you're watching the gun stores increase of prices not just on guns But on other products as well because they're not getting the range time rented and so there's a cyclical effect of You know dominoes of what exactly is happening here and why is it that? You know prices are increased across the board on top of that you have Pre-orders that have been sitting for months now where online companies took people's credit cards and People ordered ammo. They're waiting for the ammo to come in so they could get it out So if we just stop buying ammo like so many people suggested How do we know when those orders will be filled and how do we know that the people who? Actually stop you'll make a plan to stop buying it if they see it available How do we know they're not going to get it like I would if I just said you know what? I'm done for a while then I go to my local gun store and see a whole bunch on the shelves Oh, I'm buying that and I think that mindset is pretty consistent across the board You know if you don't have it you want to get it. So the idea of just stopping I think is Unrealistic and also you've got resellers out there that will continue to do what they're doing as long as they're making money and then You look at many people they're blaming the ammo manufacturers and I'm sure many of the executives in the Ammo business would look back and say you know what this kind of caught us by surprise too That's why we're not seeing hunting rounds a lot of people were like well You know we're not even seeing hunting rounds That's because they opened up more lines for the more popular rounds that are being sold primarily 9 millimeter that that that's the one They are pumping out 9 millimeter left and right so they're saying well, you know We blame you and if ammo is in such demand. Why don't you just open up a new plant? Let's talk about that for a minute to open up a new plant You are looking at potentially a Year two years once you get the building and the tooling and everything else all the safety measures that have to be in place You know, we don't think about that. We're not opening up a Just a regular tool and dye manufacturing plant We're opening up ammo where they have explosives the the amount of safety measures that need to be taking place Just to produce that ammo are extensive so Do we stop buying ammo? You know, do we blame the manufacturers? Well, we could blame ourselves for not prepping too well, but that aside, I don't think that's going to work and I Don't know when this is going to end nobody does and the uncertainty of it will prevent people from stop buying ammo If they see it and we'll have to see how this whole thing works out But I just want to know what you think if you like videos like this, please subscribe and share I always appreciate thumbs up button. Thanks for watching and you guys be safe
