Plus one for Missouri Bullets. I don't know how they are doing at the moment, but I am pretty sure that they are doing very well.
Probably two years ago now, back when the shortage of everything that had anything to do with shooting made it literally impossible to buy anything, I had an order in with Missouri Bullets. I was warned at the onset that they were swamped beyond belief and that it was going to take a while to get them. But they assured me that I would get them. It did take a while, and I did get them.
What upset me, though, was a conversation that I had with JoAnn. At one point I had called to get an update and she answered. She was pretty close to the end of her rope, but still very polite and helpful. She shared with me that she was pretty much spending her day on the phone getting terribly abused. She said that people were actually making death threats towards her and her family if she did not expedite their order.
I can't imagine anyone acting this way over some cast bullets. Everyone at the time with an IQ above that of a carrot knew of the shortage of everything and knew that they would be lucky to get anything from anyone. Missouri Bullets were one of the few vendors that I normally deal with who were killing themselves to get product out the door and pretty much succeeding. Slower than probably anyone would have dreamed in their ultimate bullet fantasy. But, they were making bullets and shipping them. You could count on getting your order. Like I said, slower than you might like, but you would get it.
Three cheers for these folks. They kept, and keep plowing forward. I shudder to think what would happen if I owned a business and got treated that way. I probably wouldn't still be in business. I wouldn't put up with that.
