Happy fucking Halloween, the terror has already reached a fucking zenith. Any other gunstore /k/ommandos having this shit?

>>31861851
i call bullshit. every store in my side of the state has ar's left that have been sitting at $600 for months and mags to go with them
they have 22 on the shelves at decent prices. and every other caliber is in stock.
>>
>>31861851
wtf I need to go buy something from my Local Gun Shop now so I don't miss my chance!
>>
>>31861887
Yeah, its bull crap.
Sure the prices of AKs have gone up a bunch but that's due to the drying up of the surplus parts kits.

Remember 2012? THAT was a panic.

Welcome to the last 2 elections youngfag.

Also, Hillary is the first legitimate threat to the 2nd amendment on a national level. Anyone who knew shit about anything knew Obama couldn't do shit. Hillary actually has the knowhow, and political swing to do some crazy shit.

Sorry i cant speak for the nation as a whole, kiddo. Just how it is here. We started out with a full order or two of lowers and we habe... 40 or so left. Peolle are buying two at a time except for he guy whos probably going to horde those 20 and wait for the price to spike. Same for glock 42, 43s, and 19s for some reason
>>
>>31861923
Yikes good luck with that one. I am just finding a dry supply of lever 357 (with feed ramps) in my area. Inconvenient but not a panic.

Beats me. Im just parroting what he tells me when i wave my hands at the ammo shelf like a blind man in the shower. Getting tired of having to take forms and wait for NICS to get back up. Website and phone line are still saying Technical Issues

It will be funny when Trump wins and all that shit they bought, they can't sell because everyone has a few....

I just dont get it. I hear some folk are still trying to sell their .22lr stock. Funnily enough they havent touched any of ours yet

They import them in cycles. Same with the SCAR. Supposedly gonna be until February for either.

I don't get it. It makes so much more sense to sell during the panic instead of before.

Are you fucking serious?

Are you -fucking- serious?

Fun store worker here. Been seeling more lowers but no crazy rush on ammo or complete rifles. Have seen an increase in CCH classes and one on one lessons but nothing crazy.

Went to academy yesterday and they had no 22 and had several holes in the ammo shelf. Then I went to Cabelas and they had 22 but no bulk boxes

Everywhere seems to be sold out of 8mm mauser brass cased, or it's jumped up to 79 cents per round. Is this due to the panic or is 8mm going to dry up?

>field and stream near me is overflowing with ammo and rifles on sale errywhere.

Panic buying my ass.

I bought an ar from a store 2 days ago. $600. Wall was lined with them.
>>
>>31861887

This. My guy even has a minty old Bushmaster Windham AR with carry handle upper. $650. Thought about buying it.
>>
>>31861923

>tfw got a FS2000 for $1600 and a PS90 for $750 many years ago.

>>31863000

A lot of those ammos are made in cycles. Say Prvi has so many machines for ammo - they'll make certain calibers certain times of the year.

So they might make 8mm mauser for a few months, 7.5 french for a few months, 6.5 carcano for a few months, 8x56 for a few months, etc. Change out the tooling, make a batch, then repeat process.

That's why centerfire ammo demand could be met easily (on 223/9mm/etc) but rimfire demand hasn't really caught up - need different machines for rimfire, and then companies don't want to buy machines if the demand eventually goes back down
>>
>>31863000
As >>31863247 said it's just the production cycle. PPU especially does smaller calibers in batches. Wait a few months.

Or reload.

I know what you mean. Not too long ago I decided I want to build an M16A1 clone. Lo and behold, all those cheap A1 parts kits disappeared off the market. Only place I've found one in stock has it for $700.

Nevermind the FS2000. That's been one of my long-term wants for a while (only reason I haven't bought one is because I'm poor as fuck). So naturally, FN just had to kill off the whole damn thing, and now the used ones are going for more than MSRP, while NIB are just fucking obscene.
>>
>>31861908
> Anyone who knew shit about anything knew Obama couldn't do shit.

B.S. There was a run on ARs the day he was sworn into office, and that elementary school shooting led to such a scare that the trailing over-supply led to ARs going for under $600 briefly.

I just bought 260 rounds of IMI. m855 and m193. Would have foregone the m193 totally it not for the fact my indoor range doesn't allow steel core.

At this point, it's not because I think ammo will be unavailable. It's because I want it before Trump is elected. Fucking Hillary supporters are savage, if what happened to that homeless black woman at Trump's Hollywood star is any indication.

That was then they were selling them new to LE for 900. It's even in the CarnikCon video.

>>31862320
Academy gets ammo every two weeks or so. They've been running some really solid sales lately so I'm not surprised they're selling out of things. That said, all the gaps on the shelf at mine are just bulk tins/box facings.

correct

not the reason she's the threat she is, at all. It's the Supreme Court openings. Lose those, and the 2nd amendment will soon apply only to muskets. JUST LEIK DA FOUNDURRS INTENDAD HURR
>>
>>31861923
I don't remember where I read this, so take it with a grain of salt, but apparently the FN factory takes what is more or less summer vacation, and the supply on certain guns dries up during this time. What gun depends on the year, or something, and this time it's the PS90.
