Ammo Price Gouging
« on: September 04, 2020, 03:44:55 AM »
With the ammo shortage price gouging by the big. national sellers like Midway, Bobs and Cheaper Than Dirt has run rampant.  Looks like the state of Texas is launching an investigation.

Knowledge, skills, & experience have value. If you expect to profit from someone's you should expect to pay.

Hopefully Texas will investigate to determine where exactly in the supply chain the excessive charges are happening.  Many states have laws forbidding excessive price hikes during a declared emergency.  I hope there are prosecutions.
