Please move if not right place. Is there a reason why we can not get ammunition right now?

14. There are several reasons.

When a Democrat moves into the White House firearms and ammo makers can expect increased demand and higher profits. Many people are concerned that there will be restrictive laws passed and want to stockpile while they can.
Many people who had never owned a firearm and hadn't planned on owning one saw the RW nutjobs on TV and on the streets protesting and decided that this would be a great time to purchase a firearm and learn how to use it properly. This increased the demand for ammo greatly. Many of these new owners knew little about firearms and just bought whatever they could get ammo for. I am not saying if this was good or bad. I am just saying that this is what happened.
There was also a group of people who assumed that the orange one would remain in office and felt safe in keeping a small supply of ammo for their personal use. When they saw him lose they panicked and bought everything they could get their hands on. This increased the shortage and when others saw the dwindling supply on the shelves they too rushed to buy as much as they could find.
There are undoubtedly other contributing reasons, but this is what I observed around here.
The ammo supply is slowly increasing, but we will never see it as abundant or cheap as it was two years ago.
