Ammunition prices over the years

Doing some organizing I came across a box of .22LR CCI Mini-Mags with a price tag of $4.99 on it. Being that these 100-ct plastic boxes now run over $10 it’s pretty obvious this box is from many, many years ago. Seeing this brought back memories of buying 50-ct boxes of 9mm back in the day for $4.99 a box. Yes – $4.99. This was a brand I bought in New Hampshire called “Carrol”. Just prior to COVID, I was getting aluminum-cased 9mm for $8.99/box. I remember going to Palmetto State Armory in Columbia, SC on the way to Myrtle Beach and buying Federal M193 5.56mm for $5.49/box.

ammunition, prepper, prepping, stock up, cost, price, shtf, firearms, ammunition,

Oh – the memories.

With the work I’ve been doing on the homestead in my spare time visiting gun shops has been rare. When I have managed to stop in I’m disgusted by the pricing. I’m a big believer in supporting local gun shops, however, when the cheapest box of 9mm is $16.00 – it’s ridiculous.

I’ve been in manufacturing as a profession for decades. I understand costs such as raw materials, labor, shipping, etc. There is no reason that ammunition pricing AT A GUN SHOP should be this high. I can buy the very same ammunition online for $10.99.

Palmetto State Armory, prices, ammo, ammunition,  prepper, get ready, stocking up

Like I said I want to support local gun shops and I’m willing to pay more there. Upwards of 40-50% more? Nope.

We live in a volatile and unpredictable world. I continue to believe we have some extremely tough times ahead. Among many things, ammunition and other defense-related items need to be put back. Overall, ammunition pricing is more than it was and less than just a few years ago.

Stack it high and stack it deep!
