            Gun dealers across the country are dealing with a shortage of ammo and experts are blaming it on the possibility that President Obama may toughen gun control laws in the near future.  The folks over at Sharp Shooters say they've seen at least a 40 percent increase in business since Obama took office. They say demand has increased so much in the last few months, they've actually run out of certain ammo. They don't have any 380 or 45 colt bullets on the shelves, and they're 223 stock is running low. They say they're expecting the shortage will only get worse, if Obama starts pushing any gun control legislation through congress.
