The manufacturers ramped up to running full bore, new problem now,
FURTHER EXPANSION requires MORE MACHINERY, this takes time, then we need more HELP and we have to train that help.
Businesses don't just make major capital investments on spiked demand.
Otherwise we could perhaps waste capital $$$$ and end up with EXCESS CAPACITY and FUTURE LAYOFFS.
They like to be sure the demand will be sustained, before making those decisions.
Meanwhile, we keep creating more demand with NEW SHOOTERS and WE keep buying more too.
Just in time manufacturing led to things not even existing until YOU order it.
You order more machinery and chances are when it gets built it gets built on the other side of the world.
Whenever the machine gets built, it needs to be shipped, container ships travel slow.
Then we may need expanded buildings which leads to PLANS and then PLANNING DEPARTMENTS,
then GOVERNMENT PERMITS AND BUILDING INSPECTORS.
Yep, THERE ARE GREAT DEAL MORE INVOLVED,
It's not like ordering a few Dillon's, Hornady or RCBS presses you know.
You must have ALL THE COMPONENTS TOO, Cases, Powder, Primers,
Projectiles or your AMMUNITION MANUFACTURING FACILITY WILL FALL SHORT.
ALL OF US have a piece of the issues somewhere.
