Has this been discussed? Old WWII factories coming back

Does the video answer the rhetorical question?

Also chuckle at it coming from something called God Family and Guns, and being 4:20 in length.

Lots of words to ask one question.

I would think that the US Military would get most of it's small arms ammo from private manufacturers.

Has the US Military had a lot of artillery shells, air dropped bombs, mortar rounds, mines and other large ammunition in storage since Korea and/or Vietnam ? ? ? If so, have they used it up ? ? Given it away to others such as Ukraine ? ? ? Has it past it's storage life and the US Military has to rebuild it's inventory/war stocks ? ? ? These would be reasonable explanations for reopening ammo plants.

Or, are our politicians planning on another major war for their amusement and profit ? ?

I'm all for it if it means getting .38 Special to about 20 cents a round.

Several ammo manufacturers in the US are expanding operations

For the longest time they would not, thinking demand was cyclical. But demand has not let up much in years. Then Russia started a shooting war.

I'm dumber for watching that video.

The Army operates 23 plants and depots across the country, many have not been modernized in many decades. This is simply investing in our industrial base. The Navy is doing the same thing with its public shipyards.
