The .22 Caliber Ammo Shortage

The .22 Caliber Ammo Shortage - 01/14/15 04:18 PM

While cleaning and storing my firearms today, I couldn't help but notice that over the years I have acquired .22 rifles and

pistols made by Browning, Cimarron, Heritage, High Standard, Remington, Ruger, Sauer, Sears, Weatherby, and of course Winchester.

Since I only shoot one at a time, I think I may be part of the problem. And don't even get me started on shotguns. Do any of you

have to attend meetings with other gun junkies and discuss your addiction?

Guilty as charged. My lovely wife knows how the shotgun thing is, she couldn't figure out what you would do with that many when we got married and we moved in together. After the second load I brought home in the truck from mom and dad's she was starting to get frustrated with me. Especially when I told her those were just some old model 12's, I said I don't even shoot those things I'm a Wingmaster kind of guy! On the plus side she doesn't even notice a new one, I don't even have to sneak them in!

Travis, no Model 12s but I do have a Model 97; ( I used to ride shotgun on a stagecoach ); I do own a pair of Wingmasters, a pair of

Benillis, three Brownings, a Beretta, a JC Higgins, a 16 gauge Sauer Drilling, a 20 gauge LeFever, a .410 Stoeger, and kind of an

ornate muzzleloader. Out of the 14, I've fired 6. ( But I fired them a lot which explains why I can't hear worth a darn ) I put

thousands of rounds through the trap guns in a year and nobody ever wore hearing protection back then. Make sure you guys wear them

now or you will never know why your wife is hollering at you when you get to be my age. ( Hey, that's a plus! )
