    I'm pretty much down to running from my stockpile of 9mm and 5.45mm right now. Everything else I just can't justify shooting when I can't replace it. If this keeps up, I may have to go back to my 1911 just to get some shooting time in.
    Damn. None of ours carry ammo, and I could use some .38

    I can buy all the .38spcl and .45acp I want.
    In fact, I'm shooting a j-frame in this weekends ccw match because my 9mm stash is getting low enough I feel the need to seriously conserve.

    Almost zero .38 special ammo to be had in the northern Virginia area.

    Brass case Herter's 9mm on sale today from Cabela's, in the 5 minutes it took me to look up the site and try to order they were out, even with a five box maximum order per customer.

    Part of my recent decision to buy a good semi-auto shotgun is the ease of finding both defensive and practice fodder.

    This is EXACTLY why I shake my head when the tacticool crowd poo-poo's the shotgun as obsolete.
    I've never seen an ammo or gun crisis where shotguns or shells were difficult to locate.
    I would go so far as to say when the world comes to a nuclear end, there'll be a box of birdshot under the refrigerator with the roaches.

    Yeah, in addition to vanilla 00 buck and practice birdshot, I easily bought a case of Flite Control a month or so ago. Slugs are easy to get too.

    My father has a 5 gallon bucket full of cast 148 LSWC. This was a deciding factor in my purchase of the 442. The fact that he cast them around my 2nd birthday is just kind of cool. Not bragging, just sayin'
