    I told you so! Lol I said prices would shoot down to an all time low after this scare was over, the only thing now is finding ammo lol



    To all who paid rediculous prices during the scare....

    Well technically, AR15's aren't anywhere near their pre-scare pricing. But it's still funny to think about all the people that bought $3000 Deltons hoping to turn a profit.

      Anyone who buys retail during a scare hoping to turn a profit is already showing their ignorance and deserves to lose.

        As always when these occur I sit back and watch the craziness unfold and don't buy anything during it.

          It'll go back up once a new law comes in affect or other crap the govt. is going to impose on us. But hey the time is ripe now to buy buy buy since they're finally catching up. I'm just glad I waited patiently!

            If you think the antis who provoked the last crisis are finished with us,you got another thing comin'.

            We came quite close to a major crisis Federally speaking last time around,and at the state level in Connetticutt among others the lights have gone out on the RKBA.We are only one psycho scumbag away from $3000 ARs and sold out ammo counters.

              I had no problem finding ammo or reloading supplies during the panic and at pre-pre-panic pricing. Just walked into my garage or gun/computer room and picked up what I needed. Stll have approx 30,000 rounds of 22rf purchased when they were $9.97/525 or 550 bulk pack. Other ammo and reloading supplies were purchased in bulk years ago.

                    I have no problem with the capitalist issue. I was just saying it's a poor business choice to think you can buy at the retail counter during a scare thinking you'll flip it for a profit.

                    Buy anything retail in hopes of flipping it for a quick profit is just stupid to begin with. Wasn't saying they deserved to lose on any moral grounds. They deserved to lose for making a stupid business move.

                        I'm pretty sure that "It's a great time to buy" phrase is just another marketing scheme to drive up the prices again.
