NO. Next time they are available......if Trump wins, purchase at least 2-3 thousand of the primers you need. If Biden wins, no telling when you will see them again.

Our Sportsman's Warehouse got a batch in a month ago, but, all large rifle. Haven't seen any small rifle or pistol since April. Just means I stopped shooting those for fun until stores stock back up. I always keep a specific amount on hand no matter what. The surplus I use for recreational purposes.

How much you keep in stock is up to you and your perception of how much you will need in some sort of crisis.

I don't subscribe to them, just found the article a while back.

Do you believe it will be due to demand or do you fear he will shut down the entire gun industry from firearms to powder, bullets, primers or anything else? He already said, and it is on video, (though he now denies it) he will make the fake Mexican failed democrat candidate gun czar in charge of disarming people.

I think I have 500 lined up. A guy on another forum has offered to let me have 500 for what they cost him. I am going to give him more than he is asking There is no doubt that he could get quite a bit more for them the way things are now.

Watch out for the hazardous material shipping fee!

today, private party shipping of primers is next to impossible.

.He is close enough I can drive. It is unlikely since there are members from all over the country but I got lucky. I know you can't drive for nothing but my car gets over 40 MPG and it would be nice to see a little country anyway.

And take the primers in to cusdity as evidence!! "Law of Supply and Demand". It sucks but, when an item is scarce, prices go up. Powder prices have crept up too. $36 to $45/lb. in my area. One of the largest LGS has almost no powder except a few cans fast pistol powder and no primers at all.
