Not too bad here. Most AR types and home defense shotguns are sold out, but there are higher end ARs and hunting shotguns a plenty. Some ammo is sold out at some stores, but a few are fully stocked. Gallenson's in downtown actually has a ton of ammo and the prices are the same as a month ago.

I am guessing it is because most of the people here already had a small armory. Gotta give it to the Mormons, they are prepared. Not to mention the silos and warehouses across this area packed with food.

was a line outside and around the parking lot at the guns show here a few week ago. $100 AK mags and $5K for a Colt AR15. The ammo was slower to go but .22Lr and .223 got wiped out pretty early on. 9mm was next and now pretty everything except the more expensive hunting stuff is gone.

was in a shop that had a six for section usually about 4 rifles deep. They had 6 M1A's and various out semi auto mag feed rifles. Some of that stuff would be there over a year or two. Everything was gone a few weeks later.

I think there are a lot of folks buying because it's the thing to do. Bumped into a couple guys who could even say exactly what they had bought. Soundedlike they just bought it "because". Then there's a few "I'll get it one day" folks who are buying in case that day doesnt come.

There's a lot of guns with crazy prices since this is a sellers market. Its makes for a good laugh when I hear the asking prices. I guess I cant really blame the guys but it's pretty crazy to see.

That is the way it is here in OK, but we are one of the states that has told the POTUS we don't support his views.

I went by one of my favorite gun shops today. It's an old, well established shop. All the guns were gone. He had sold them all. Ammo was gone too. I have seen panic buying before, but this is the worst. You can't even find a box of 22LR in this town. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

I have seen several stores that were down to just shot guns. The panic buying is in full swing.

A friend just got a colt ar for $3,000. Two years ago the guy who sold it to him paid 1200 for it. It's nuts in southern ohio boys

I really wish I could find even some of the higher end ammo.

Especially Hornady 75gr TAP .223. I wouldn't mind a couple hundred rounds of that for home defense. But no luck, not even online (at least from sellers I would deal with.)

Been wanting some boxes of that since before this whole thing happened, should have bought then. Hindsight is 20/20 I guess <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

I check a website that watches currents supply and prices on firearm related products. it's not brand or product specific but I don't want to break the deal spotting rule. mods let me know if it's cool to post.


JYD #82 yup...

I think it's OK to post the address; no different than mentioning Cheaper Than Dirt, Sportsmans' Guide, etc. You are not being product specific. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

cool!

you guys may want to check slickguns.com.

it's just a latest deal website but in the current environment it's good for finding items in stock. my advice is if you see something you want then don't wait too long. stuff goes pretty fast lately.

Went to Shooters today. They had some revolvers......but no ammo for them. I was looking for some 38SPL HP. Oh well, guess I'll have to defend with the evil Glock I bought last year. I had never fired it until today. I have plenty of 9mm. It worked. Ugly gun, but it shot well. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

What model did you buy Vic? Today I saw our LGS had Glock 19s again and even some Mini 14s! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

Not one round of 22 lr or 223 there though...
