Without accepting the fact that everything changes, we cannot find perfect composure. But unfortunately, although it is true, it is difficult for us to accept it. Because we cannot accept the truth of transience, we suffer.

Dear Master, how to live life without making mistakes?

Answer:

You must practice the Noble Eightfold Path correctly with all your determination, all your life.

Must understand:

Understand the correct morality in life.
Internal purification.
Don't say the wrong thing.
Create countless blessings.
Have a true job to support yourself.
Practice practice.


The more you practice, the more you see your mistakes, the higher your wisdom will be.

Therefore, in the first step of practicing, you should pray to Buddha so that you can always see your mistakes from the secret.

From then on, every day we see our mistakes more and more quickly and quickly correct them.

When we die, we will die in peace.

When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

~ Max Planck

The following paragraph is my opinion, and should be taken as my opinion only, from my point of view in the US commercial market ammunition business as it stands today and not related to the ‘big picture’ of tariffs, trade, politics or anything else in the matter.

As discussed in my past few email newsletters, tariffs on import ammo have raised major concerns on supply and prices of key brands that manufacture ammunition for the US consumer overseas and caused massive order volume for these products at our store. Yesterday, the president announced a 90 day pause on 'reciprocal tariffs', meaning the portion of the tariff that was over the 10% baseline is no longer in effect at this time. For the ammunition business, this is a major relief for EU-made products, cutting the tariff in half from an unworkable 20%, to 10%, and allows a practical pathway to participate in the US commercial market. Bosnian and Serbian manufacturing that had tariff rates of 36% to 37% are now falling to 10% feeling major relief, and South Korean products at rates falling from 25% to 10% is very substantial as well. This drop in the rate makes the difference between these brands totally exiting the US commercial market or staying in and just passing on a smaller price increase. The 10% tariff that remains is a cost where some of that will get passed on to the consumer in the weeks and months ahead and it will take time to find a new normal for pricing. Overall, I feel some relief in regards to the future stability of the supply chain, however for every day the material stops flowing from the factory in either the manufacturing or logistical process, it can take up to a week to resume to normal, meaning if there is no flow for a week, it can take a month to 2 months to catch up. Most likely, what happened in the last week is enough to disrupt supply through the next few months, as exporters re-book transportation of shipping containers and vessels for products that have been made but were frozen in place last week. I would also expect foreign factory management to discuss & implement new strategies to restart manufacturing again in a way with less exposure to the increased cost or dependence on the US commercial market, meaning they might make less of some calibers and more of others. From here, time will tell how this plays out, but it appears the most likely course ahead is more limited supplies of import ammo and price increases in the 5% to 10% range. This will provide a major advantage to US manufacturers who are most likely going to use that advantage to push up on prices of the lowest margin calibers like 9mm FMJ and 5.56 / 223 FMJ. Due to extremely high order volume, orders placed at this time may take 2 to 7 business days to be picked and shipped out of our warehouse. While we are working hard and long hours to catch up on shipping your orders, the order volume from last Thursday to Monday was what we would normally get in 3 weeks and remains elevated. It takes some extra time to work through a flood of orders like that, but if you want to get your order in line to ship next week, it would be a good time to do so.
