Just being led by cattle with this nonsense. You know what needs to be done and its not political, you need a group of investors, jointly to embark on creating a manufacturing ability, it sounds like a lot, but if we can hand load, we can manufacture, only concern is raw material. Are the raw materials, powder and brass restricted or hung up on this situation or are the raw materials available ? Is it like crude oil whereas the refining aspect is the bottleneck ?
If so, with all the darned machinery that this country still has in the hands of people that know how to use them, and fabricate the equipment to manufacture ammunition, we can't get that done ?
I realize BATF and feds are somehow involved with regulation, I won't state an opinion on that, but aside from obtaining the necessary permits or legal ability, what in heck is stopping us or someone from doing it, even small scale ?
Same thing with magazines, I just cannot believe that the tooling needed to stamp metal parts, (aside from 3d printers)follower, springs and so on could not be easily fabricated and put into production behind the scenes.
Personally speaking, I don't have a demanding or urgent need for a large cache of weapons, ammo etc. including high capacity magazines, but for cripes sake, .22 LR being hoarded and price gouged by some retailers, upwards of $150/500 as per some listings I saw, ( can't verify but Midway and similar were listed), its ridiculous.
Political scare, this too will pass, but in the interim, it is a problem and I think the situation is not very favorable, downright sucks for the common person who uses firearms like a .22 LR
Now here it is spring time, I have a serious canada goose problem until they find some forage or other source of food, I will get the depradation permit and any other permissions to keep them out of our fields, by either killing or harassing which the latter takes more ammunition to do. They're all the way up onto the lawns this year, 3 flocks of 20 or more, and I can't get some darned .22 LR or am afraid to use my current stock, in fear that I should conserve heavily due to the above ? I've got enough stock of .22 after rooting out some from a friend who had bought over the years. Had I the crystal ball then I 'd have done it too, but led like cattle to believe that this would not be a problem, when was .22 LR ever in shortage ? WWII ? maybe ?
Need to get some people together and bypass this in the manner of which built this country, people did not stand down, they rose to the occasion.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
