The last line sums it up for me.

"It's like gas. You have to absorb the cost."

Yes..."absorb the cost" and make the ammo companies rich. Ugh!

All of this corporate profiteering is getting real old! These corporate morons are going to price the Democrats right into office in 2008.

•Ammunition dealers complain of declining sales as they are forced to pass along rising costs to consumers.

•Hunters and gun enthusiasts, who initially stockpiled ammunition when prices spiked, are now making more of their own or shooting less.

•And police departments in the Dallas area are experiencing long delays in shipments and having to adjust training schedules accordingly.
If the first two items are true, why are the Police having delays?
