1911 Luger--What Do I Need to Know?

JCP · 03-20-2013, 10:17 PM

Just for information, I work for Winchester at their pistol range in East Alton, IL. It is my retirement job. W-W is running at full production to try and keep ammo flowing and I am sure all the other manufacturers are doing the same. The problem is that they only have so many machines to make ammo. Most people don't know that most calibers are not made all the time. As an example .380 acp is only made one time per year. The only commercial ammo that W-W makes all the time are .22's, and 12 gauge shotgun shells. Once the ammo craziness ends the ammo makers will be able to catch up. They can only do so much to make it through these politically driven shortages. Joe
