Ammo Manufacturers Scramble to Keep Up with Demand, Reassure Eager Customers | CNS News
There are other statements by Black Hills Ammunition and Remington.Hornady, an ammunition manufacturer located in Grand Island, Nebraska, offers answers to concerned customers on the FAQ page of their website:
Q: Have you stopped production, or has the government forced you to stop?
A: Not at all.
Q: Since we can't find your product you must be selling it all to the government.
A: Nope, less than 5% of our sales are to government entities.
Q: Why can't you make more? Ramp up production? Turn on all the machines?
A:We've been steadily growing our production for a long time, especially the last five years. We've added presses, lathes, CNC equipment, people and space. Many popular items are produced 24 hours a day. Several hundred Hornady employees work overtime every week to produce as much as safely possible. If there is any question about that - please take a tour of the factory. You'll be amazed at what you see.
