Idiots

I visited a Cabela's today. I had last visited it in mid-November. Back then, they had overflowing displays of ammunition. Today, not so much. About all they had a lot of was 7.62x39mm.

In the reloading section, they had no pistol primers whatsoever. Most of the more common sizes of bullets were not to be had.

Nowhere, in any of the bills that I am aware of (outside of moronic states such as NY and NJ), is anyone proposing limiting ammunition sales. Nobody anywhere that I know of is proposing limiting sales of reloading supplies. But that doesn't stop every panicky Cletus from buying up a shitload of ammunition as soon as the truck from the warehouse is unloaded.

Last Saturday, I went to the range to do a little shooting. It was a fine day, sunny, no serious wind, not very cold. It was the sort of day that normally would have had shooters out in droves to get in a little winter trigger-time. Not this time around. I was the only one on the pistol range. There was one shooter on the rifle range.

Don't quite know what the various Cletii are going to do with all of the cartridges that they are hoarding. But once this is over, maybe the prices will come down.

Cabela's also had a number of AR-15 magazines. They felt as though they were made from recycled single-use food containers. They were $29.95 and they looked as though that was twenty times what it cost to make them. They were so sucky that it was no wonder that even the local Cletii weren't foolish enough to buy them.
