Greetings everyone...

Checked Big 5 today after work. They get their ammo shipments on Fridays. They didn't have much!

The Mgr. said all they received was a few boxes of 3006 and a few boxes of UMC 45 Auto. The Mgr told me they ( ammo Co's )cannot keep up with demand. He even said that the Military has cut back on training due to ammo shortages.

I was hoping to pick up a box or two of 357's. Going to the range tomorrow with my new Blackhawk! I have one box of Mags and a few boxes of 38's so it will work.

Hope this crazyness ends soon!

Best

Bob
