I don't have any trouble getting lead. I never have. Primers- yes for a while, but that wasn't because of the government. If lead is going to be in shortage it's because of the increase in battery powered cars. Gun owners should have a good supply of lead built up by now. I've got enough reloading supplies to last long after I'm gone. There's 50 bags of lead shot sitting inside the door in a crate at the gun shop I go to about once a month. Just waiting for people to buy. And my gun club has all the shot people need for sale.
Jimmy once again shows his ignorance. Lead for shot and bullets is in short supply for two reasons. The Liberal Left Greenies have caused all of the lead smelting operations in the U.S. to be shut down. And lead and other components have been in short supply due to increased demand caused by the wars in the Ukraine and the Middle East due to Biden's foreign policy blunders.
Electric vehicle batteries do not use lead. The batteries in E.V.'s use Lithium, Nickel, Cobalt, Manganese, and Graphite.
Lead shot, primers, loaded ammo, guns, gasoline, groceries, mortgage rates, and just about everything else has become more expensive because our dollars are worth at least 20% less due to the inflation caused by Biden and Democrat economic policies.

The ten year 1994 Assault Weapon Ban was signed by Democrat Bill Clinton. It expired in 2004, and anti-gun Democrats have been pushing hard to reinstate it ever since. The predicted increase in murders due to them did not happen, and most Republicans vote against a new assault rifle ban. More people die from hands, fists, feet, than rifles. The 2020 total for all rifles was 455, which is a tiny fraction of the over 100,000 per year who die from drug overdoses, largely due to Biden's open border. The Democrat war on the 2nd Amendment is not about saving lives. It is about taking our Constitutional Rights and disarming us.
