Even some cop agencies are having trouble
One of my daughter's is a LEO in North Carolina. She lamented last week that ammo issues were plaguing her agency too. Pre Covid they had two (2) annual qualifications with service pistols (her's a Glock 21 Gen 4, .45 acp); shotguns, cruiser rifles. Spring and Fall, day conditions and night exercises. After qualifications were over (approx 4 days/3 nights) they would have some old service revolver "fun" matches with .357, 9mm, etc.
This year, Spring 2021, one (1) 30 round qualification daytime course...talking about full cancellation of Fall qualifications.
She said the course was with FMJ "training" rounds and duty rounds (Speer Gold Dot HP's) are issued as required from a locked safe.
Same thing at her local in central NC.....nothing on shelves, sporadic finds of anything....all priced in the stratosphere.
