Don't know if it's a trend...

But this morning it appears the 22 ammo on auction prices are slipping just a little bit. I see several auctions with $70 starting prices on a brick (gougers) closing with no bids. Last week those would have sold.
Average selling price has been around $85 and now seems to have fallen to around $65. We'll see if continues to slide.

Cabela's told me over the weekend that my five brick order from December 20th is expected to ship on April 24th.
I say we bring the government plants back, and let the civilian market handle the civilian market, and the government handle the military needs.
I think it was a mistake for the federal government to shut down their ammunition plants during a time of war. There is a reason that the military got their ammunition supplies from government plants: so the civilian market wouldn't be effected by combat requirements.

It wasn't a mistake, it was part of their grand scheme to destroy everything great about this country. And their doing a damn good job so far. [:(!][:(!][:(!]

What war?
Iraq is done with, except small scale stuff we should stop doing anyway. Including closing the embassy and getting all contractors out of there.
But that's another topic.
Afghanistan is declining, we are leaving. Hell, I'd of left years ago. Kill tons of bad guys, the animals that attacked us on 9/11 that is, then go home. That should have been it not this years and years of "Nation Building" crap.

I work for a defense industry conglomerate. Our division makes ... stuff I can't talk about here [8D] We've been aggressively pursuing non-US Military and non-military sales for several years. All in expectation of what we are seeing happen. Falling orders for US Military.
Anyway, back on topic, aren't we supposed to be moving manufacturing out of government hands generally? Into private business? How is it alright for government to own ammunition manufacturing but not other manufacturing?
