Have plenty, but don't want to shoot it? Would like to know what the plan is to catch up on production. Seems really odd that it hasn't so far.
Oh yeah... wow, we've had Obama for president for over a year now - seems like he just took office last November (from his list of accomplishments).
Well there has certainly been some changes over the last year and a half. 380 has always been a little sister round. The manufacturers still look at it like that. I suspect that still today there are lots more people looking for 9 mm than 380. At least volume wise. So they're gonna keep on making the 9mm and squeezing in a little 380 every now and then. If in another year there's still a high demand we'll see one of two things.
1.) The current manufacturers will develop a dedicated assembly line for 380.
2.) We'll see some upstart company come on board and start making it.
With the current economy manufacturers are being real careful about where they put thier investments.
They are looking for the fastest return of profit with the least overhead.

Cabelas just became an exclusive dealer for Herter's ammo...Don't know much about it other than it's Russian and noncorrosive . But, they have .40S&W, .80, .45ACP, 9mm, .223, 7.62X39, .308 .30 carbine. The .380 is $179.99 for 500 and $339.99 for 1000 plus you get dry boxes. Also you don't have to pay tax...might be worth a check out....I have ordered ammo from them before and the shipping is really reasonable also.
.38 Special and .357 have also been slow to rebound from the ammo rush.
It seems like Academy has the best luck with getting .380 in stock. They also seem to be charging "below" what you would pay at a smaller gun shop. The power of volume I suppose.

yeah, Academy has a lot of ammo in stock. You can buy "their" house brand, Monarch and it shoots just fine for range practice
Looks like Kings Pawn bought a bunch of it.
That's the one I have such a hard time finding. I need to learn to reload.
