It's just business; don't take it personal.
I think this is a good thing because it prevents hoarding.
"Hoarding" is one of those terms that means something different to different people. One man's "hoard" is another mans "barely adequate supply".
Some people might say I've been "hoarding" ammo for decades. tis mine, I paid for it, I'll have as much as I want, thank you.
What I do find objectionable is the people that buy up the existing supply available
'Price Gouging' noun
an act or instance of charging customers too high a price for goods or services, especially when demand is high and supplies are limited.

Are there firearms and ammunition distributers at the wholesale and retail levels participating in 'Price Gouging"?
Yes, yes there is.
Bang away at your keyboard all you want and tell me I'm wrong. Matters not to me. Is there price gouging happening right now on guns and ammo? Yes, yes there is.
Well, that is a very strong counter argument to an argument that nobody has made in this thread. There has yet to be anyone who has claimed that there is no price gouging going on anywhere.

Why not be happy to do so well? That's lots more than I have; perhaps I could call it hoarding..... !,000 rounds is more than you really need.... You could go shoot half of it up just for the fun of it and save the rest of it in reserve until you can buy more at what ever price you can tolerate.So about 3weeks ago I was online looking for 9mm ammo from the places I usually shop and to my my surprise what I wanted was in stock so I got 1k rounds at a bulk discount.
... !,000 rounds is more than you really need....

The attitude illustrated in that phrase, and so often found in both casual and political conversations is one of the root causes of our troubles today.
Someone(s) deciding for others what they "need".
This is just me entertaining and considering a thought that I don't fully agree with to make a valid point. That point being that it's fine to wish for another super-good deal that's no longer available....but not so fair to accuse of price gouging, scalping, or, blaming others as hoarders for stocking up when they could. Could-a, should-a, would-a, didn't.....perhaps I could call it hoarding..... !,000 rounds is more than you really need....
