Son, I say son (in my best Foghorn Leghorn voice) you're not doing it right...
When, not if, prices come back to "normal" or close to it, you should be buying a LOT more than 1k. Within 3 months of ammo being at 120% of pre-WuFlu pricing I'll have another 5k MINIMUM of 9mm & 45acp, same for 5.56 and 7.62x39. At least another 1000 each of 44, 38 AND 357, 500 more 30-06, another 20k of 22lr, and 5k 22mag. Oh, and shotgun ammo also....
Point is, if you haven't learned from THIS shortage, you not only haven't learned or paid attention, but you DESERVE to run out and have your wallet raped. Different cause, but this has happened before and it'll happen again.
