Gun show buzzards!
I am all in favor of free markets. Personally, I just find it frustrating that all of this is happening when my 10 year old son is participating in his first 4-H 22lr shooting competition/project season. I would like to encourage anyone who can to donate 22lr ammo to your local 4-H club (or at least offer some for sale to 4-H member parents at pre-Obama Craziness prices, i.e. Walmart, prices). As I said before, I am all in favor of free markets. It's the American way. However, I get a real bad taste in my mouth when I try to go buy some ammo for my son, and find out that the gun show Buzzards have shown up at the local Walmart or sportsman's Warehouse etc. when the shipment has come in, and bought everything on the pallet just to re-sell it at the gun show for five or more times the price (Yes, I know this is the "American Way" and just "Good Business"). Recently, I have noticed several stores, including Wallmart and Sportsmans warehouse, placing limits on how much stock you can buy at one time, but before these limits were in place, what I mentioned earlier was happening, and still happens in some places.

FISH!!

Heed the words of Winston Smith in Orwell's 1984:

"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."

Not only at gun shows, but everywhere!

Cannot find a good deal here locally unless you are first in line when the shelves are stocked at walmart/academy.
