Ammunition Depot’s Scott Blick on Ammo as an Alternative Currency
Scott Blick from Ammunition Depot stops by today to talk about the ammunition market. Ammunition Depot hold the largest ammunition inventory in the South. Availability is starting to normalize, but demand stays high according to Scott. He tells us that supply remains tight and just the slightest hint of a run on ammunition could easily trigger another inventory squeeze on the overall ammo market.

Scott and I also talk about the continued attack on our constitutional rights, especially the Second Amendment. The NRA has been key in lobbying to maintain our 2nd Amendment rights. It is a shame that we must send lobbyists to protect our constitutionally guaranteed rights, but that is the way the game is played. I believe it is very important for everyone who is able to support the NRA and other advocacy groups that fight for freedom.
We talk about the consequences of the national debt and the possible effects of interest rates when they begin to normalize. If 10 year treasury rates were to return to their highs reached during the 1980s, the debt service would outstrip the entire Federal revenue. Last month, we saw the labor participation rate drop to its lowest level since 1978. The continued downward spiral of the American economy may just be the economic collapse happening in slow motion.
