...until they're begging for business with deeper than normal discounts.
Dropped in yesterday to look for .44 spl ammo, plus I hadn't been up there in a while. Only a handful of people in the store (surprising on a weekend mid-day.) So I find a single box of plain-Jane Federal ammo in this caliber, and the pricks were charging $44.00 for a box of 20. That's right, $2.20 per round!
So I hope they've squeezed every possible drop of opportunistic profit out of the gun owners that made them, because it's going to take a HELL of a lot to get me back there. Found a supply of .44 special at luckygunner.com for $1.00 a round. It's all gone now, but that should tell you who respects our sport. Hoffman's can go eff themselves.
