Because it's fucking restricted, so the stuff becomes more pricey. The stuff that's not is in danger of being restricted so it's price goes up. 9mm ammo used to be $5 for $50 just a few years ago. It's not $11
I was talking about the heavy shit, not ammo. anyone can afford small arms ammo.
and where is there a danger of anything being restricted? it's alarmist nonsense
