Bad timing man. I predict overpriced ammo if you can find it. The public is on a panic buy and the dealers are on the markup train.

But I'll throw ya a dolla' scroll down for a $1 off the entrance fee coupon

I was thinking of going, but I believe it will be over crowded and ammo prices will definitely be jacked up. The gun market is making out like the oil companies were doing. Its al, based on speculation and consumer fear. I would understand if recyclable metals were still up, but they have come down considerably. In the last year copper and brass have dropped from over $4.00/lb to $1.25. Although a year ago ammunition was cheaper.

I can see the high pricing for guns that may become banned. However the ammunition cost is nothing more than price gouging. I am a member of the NRA and believe in protecting our 2nd amendment rights, but they are doing nothing to protect our wallets in pursuit to enjoy our hobby.
