I've been trying to assist a perfectly legal friend in getting his hands on his dream AR for a while. We were going to do an assembly party and build it out as a learning experience for him. So I ordered 2 lowers - one for me, one for him. Then he flaked and said he wouldn't have the money for several months. Now I have surplus, and the market jizz-bombed in sellers favor. Out the door she goes!

It is shipping to a FFL too, so technically I'm not transferring a firearm to a private party.

I did hoard 4 extra LPK's when I saw they were still available last weekend on PSA's site. I'll be selling those for a tidy profit. :mrgreen:

And I'm fine with this. I don't agree with people clearing out the shelves of freshly opened gun stores(which will have a hard time replacing those weapons) just to make a few bucks on the panic.

Why o why didn't I pull out my credit card and buy every gun I could find last week. I could claim to be the best business man ever this week.

Don't feel bad for the owner of a gun store when someone comes in and buys all of their product. From the owners point of view, thats sort of the point of opening their doors.

All gun stores now have inventory replenishment problems. They all face the same difficulty, whether its the result of ringing up one receipt for 100 items or 100 receipts for 1 item.
When I see five weirdos dressed in togas stabbing a guy in the middle of the park in full view of 100 people, I shoot the bastards. That's my policy.

So your fine with the gun store making 100 bucks, then that guy making 1000, and then the brand new store sitting empty?

No, you should have pulled your credit card out two weeks ago & bought every gun you could find! Whenever I had to explain my reasoning for purchasing a new gun (& there have been a few) I would always respond by saying "They are a good investment"----Well??

It's not for me. I'm not in this hobby to stab other hobbyists in the back. I'd rather work more if I need a few bucks.

The person buying the gun from the store didn't force the store owner to sell at a lower than market price.

look at Bills and Dave at DK Mags

Bill's reacted to the environment and modestly raised their prices. $139 for a stripped RRA lower and $119 for a Delaware lower.

Dave at DK Mags was selling Century Arms lowers yesterday for $379.

Which is right? Both. They chose their price point and chose to sell at a price. I like Bills, I like Dave. Both are free to run their business as they see fit.

What their customers do with that product after the sale is up to them.

So the market went up because people are going crazy and buying 12 rifles at time, piling carts with ammo, buying 50 lowers, etc

And people wonder why the left thinks were all crazy?

The market went up because supply is threatened and demand increased.

I don't care what the liberals think. It givin them ammo against us thou. I'm pretty open for what we can own.

It doesn't help our cause by any means having guys fill cars full of weapons just to flip them. If you disagree with that. Then I have no comment.

Most of the talking points the antis come up with are, if not out and out lies, ignorant, and technically inaccurate bs...
I don't believe anything I say or do will change their phobic response to firearms, or the people who own them

The antis are crazy. Always have been always will be.

My point is. Why is this community basically encouraging guys to loop hole state gun laws, federal gun laws, and IRS law?
