Over the weekend, I was talking with a couple of LEOs at our club range. Both these guys are 'street cops' and, according to them, the local gang-banger/drive-by crowd also appears to be running short on ammuniton. Last month or so, very few of the semi-autos snagged off the street have been fully loaded...like,maybe, five or six rounds in a Glock...and no spare ammo turned up in searches of the detainee's person or vehicle. Also said that according to their sources going rate for 9mm is $3.00/round or more out on the street.
