Just got this from one of my dad's full auto buddies (VERY reputable guy):
Dear Friends,
I just received the following report from a firearm industry insider. It is about the current status us US firearm and ammunition manufacturers. His report is not encouraging for anyone who has waited until now to buy guns or ammo.

The Insider's Report.
Smith & Wesson-is running at Full capacity making 300+ guns per day. They are unable to produce any more guns to help with the shortages.
RUGER: Plans to increase capacity from 75% to 100% in the next 90 days.
FNH: Moving from 50% production to 75% by Feb 1st and 100% by March 1.
Remington: Maxed out.
Armalite: Maxed out.
DPMS: Can't get enough parts to produce any more product.
COLT: Production runs increasing weekly. They are bottle necked by a shortage of bolt carriers.
LWRC: Making only black guns, running at full capacity. They can't get enough gun quality steel to make barrels.
Springfield Armory: Only company who can meet demand but are running 30-45 days behind.
AMMO: Every caliber is now allocated. We are looking at a nation wide shortage of all calibers over the next 9 months. All plants are producing as much ammo as possible. One billion rounds are produced weekly. Only a small part is available to civilians though. First in line for all ammo is the US military, followed by law enforcement. Civilians are third in line.
MAGPUL is behind 1 MILLION mags. Do not expect any large quantities of magpul mags anytime soon.
RELOADERS... All Remington, Winchester, CCI & Federal primers are going to the ammo manufacturers. None is allocated for civilian reloading purposes. Primer sales to civilians are not expected to resume for six to nine months.
GUN STORE SALES: Its not just the AR-15s, the AK-pattern rifles, the M1As, and the FALs that are sold out. World War era M1 Garands, M1 carbines and Enfield .303s are gone, along with every last cartridge for them. Its not just the semi autos that have disappeared from the shelves either. The bolt action center fire rifles are gone too. World War One and Two Russian Mosin-Nagants, of which every gun store always seemed to have 10-20 of, are gone. So is their ammo. Only a dust free space marks their passing.
Every weapon of military utility designed within the past 100+ years is gone. This isnt a society stocking up on certain guns because they fear they may be banned. This is a society preparing for war.
Barack Obama, Dianne Feinstein and the rest of the Elite Statists have done more to promote gun ownership than the NRA ever did. Well done, Liberal Democrats!
