    Is the panic starting already?

    I can't hardly find any AR15s in stock anywhere. I think the panic is starting again already.

        Are you guys dealers? I am not talking about in stores. I am talking about wholesalers. Tell me where you see AR15s in stock and which wholesaler. I found some S&W M&P15ORs at Acusport. That is about it.

          Well, talking about it would just exacerbate it.

          But, yes.

              Yah man, there aint much out there. Sports South has/had a bunch of Bushmasters but I cringe whenever I see one of those lol.
              I just scored big on a batch of Colts, but I think they only lasted a day.

              My reps are telling me they are already past 08 levels

              Oh and I am SOOOO glad I pre-booked a lot of stuff over at SHOT and ACU. I actually have Daniel Defense rifles trickling in, a few M&P sports, and a couple others.

                Not a dealer (duh) but I figure I can contribute what I've seen lately from the other side of the counter.

                I've been in to ammo bros a few times recently for a transfer, and to look for some things to buy; every time I was in there, a couple people were either picking up lowers, starting the 10 day for a lower, or in the process of figuring out which AR to buy off the shelf.

                This is just a small sampling I know, but when you figure that I was in there less than an hour each day, and they were busy when I came in, and still busy when I left, I'd imagine there's a bit more moving than that.

                  Spike's Tactical is always 2 weeks to 2 months out on orders, and has been for a long time, the last time I heard/ordered from them.

                    Having put a particular rifle put on layaway at BudsGunShop.com in February, I recently received an email from them stating that their sales in Feb 2012 were 5 times that of Feb 2009. They explained that shipments would be delayed more than normal. And it said they would gladly cancel anybody's order if they so choose without any fees since they needed more guns anyway. So yah, it seems there was some sort of rush.

                      Why the problem with Bushmasters? Educate me please.

                      ..and yes, it's getting tough to find anything in stock. Virtually every model of XDM was out of stock with every wholesaler I checked a few days ago, but they are trickling back in. Can't find M&P Sports anywhere so I picked up some of the M&P150Rs and more Colts and Bushmasters.

                        don't think its a panic but sales are crazy.....

                        Yes there aren't any ARs AKs or much of anything worthwhile just sitting around on the websites to grab.....no glocks....no HKs....

                        There is some stuff but not much....

                        Most people outside of Ca are already paying about a 100 ta 200 bux more per rifle in shops....

                        Saw a S&W sport for 950 bux.....gone the nxt day...

                        It was funny lot of distros had CA configurered rifles in stock but all the rest were gone....but even the CA ones are gone now

                        An ya bushmasters and a few mps are still hangin around....STAGs are extinct....by my count distros chewed up over 500 M2s in about 2 hours but only 10 per state if ya think about it so they went fast...

                        Try an find a WASR-10.....

                        Ammo prices on the rise 223 PMC $247 costa mesa show....315 at glendale...

                        Gonna be an interesting year for sure.....

                            That is always the last place I check! Now are they 10 round models that they will sell direct to me?

                              We are seeing it too, Wes. Not only are AR's becoming a chore to locate, handguns are also tough to find...and dont get me started on ammo...
