I haven't heard of any new developments aside from their website that explained that due to the virus and increased sales in ammunition that they had to modify their procedures.

The June pallet shipment had very little options due to shortages.  I wanted to buy 5.56/.223 and .44 special cowboy and self defense loads but they didn't have any.

They did have Aguila .22 LR copper plated 40 gr. high velocity rounds.  They had 20 boxes left and I bought 10 ( 1 full case of 5000)

Their website mentioned that the odd number months will be postponed and they will go on a month to month basis.  They hoped that by August or September they will have a better idea of conditions.

I keep checking their website every now and then.

44 special is not a common caliber. Better learn how to make your own.

We're waiting on inventory to see when the next pallet will go out.  We're aiming for later August or September, but its dependent on when (if?) 223/556, 9mm, and non-match 22LR comes back in.  2/3 of the pallet is usually 223/556 and 9mm so we're dependent on those restocking.  From mid-March there has been at least some sprinkling of inventory coming back in regularly, but it has been a couple of weeks of no-restocking.  There are some oddball Lapua rifle and SK 22LR still in stock, but all the range or plinking price range ammo is hard to come by.  Supposedly the big manufactures (Federal etc) have been pumping out rounds, but they don't seem to have hit the market yet.  Some of the wholesaler distributors also supply their own retail locations (for example, Crow Shooting Supply is the same company as Brownells and Countrywide Sports is the same as Outdoor Limited) and those combo companies seem to be diverting inventory to their retail operations instead of restocking the wholesale side.  Can't really blame them for doing so because they probably make a lot more profit selling retail.

Thank you for the update.

I should.  Would be cheaper I suppose.

Thank you for the update.  I recently did business with you and it was a very positive experience.  I look forward to doing business with you again.

Hope things stabilize soon.  Seems a lot of people like and appreciate what you do.

Do you bring in  powder?

Kaleo is 

Looking forward to next pallet.

Do you bring in  powder?

Not quite yet.  Powder is a different hazmat class than ammo so we're checking with the overland and overwater transportation companies to see what would change if we did start bringing powder and primers with the ammo.  Final mile is also a challenge because of the zoning and fire codes and vehicle transportation rules depending on the total weight being transported.  ...Totally unregulated industry though right HI Leg? ...

Keep us updated on the powder situation. Would be awesome to have this available. Thanks for doin what u do brotha.

Thanks Jen! 

Bet your glad your away from Hawaii at this moment with Douglas doing a direct hit on Oahu !!

I have ordered ammo on both of the last 2 pallets. Kaleo Arms are solid people. I highly recommend them. They are awesome at communication, and are very helpful in trying to fulfill your ammo needs. I will definitely be doing more business in the future when I need ammo again.

Can we make a special request for weird little calibers? Makarov prices on the mainland always seem half

Can we make a special request for weird little calibers? Makarov prices on the mainland always seem half

Oh yes, that's no problem.   Its kind of like a treasure hunt of sorts, and its been pretty neat to learn about all the different calibers that HI has.  Before covid's 223 and 9mm push, about 1/3 of each pallet were oddball calibers or brands etc. Actually about a year ago we brought in a half case of Makarov on one of the pallets. 

Oddball calibers have become the dark horse of ammo inventory lately.  With most of the "common calibers" sold out, some of the distributors have been turning to the oddballs to fill their email ads etc.  The possible downside though with the manufacturers focusing on replenishing the more common calibers, it might be a while before the less common ones are slated for production again.

9 mm and 5.56/.223 are always on my "list" to buy.  I actually still have most of the .41 mag ammo that you brought in for me a while back.  Maybe I need to starting shooting that gun more.

Hope you're doing well!  Looking forward to updates on ammo shipments. 

I also am always interested in purchasing 5.56 ammunition.  I also am willing to purchase .22LR.

I'm hoping that in the future pallets you would be able to bring in .44 special "cowboy loads".

I'm looking forward to the next pallet shipment! 

earlier this year KaleoArms got me some HSM 44mag cowboy loads which were really good.  uses starline brass which I really like.  I would buy a lot more next time   
please send update when the next shipment is in the works
I usually check every now and then
