kresk 10,063 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Simple rule of price and demand, fueled by the election results and its accompanying sense of impending doom re: the Second Amendmant. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VladTepes 160 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 if you think 899 is bad.. wait until importation restrictions go into effect... i was in the EXACT same boat as you.. only i was in it like 2 months ago... so luckily i added the .223 to my collection before this insanity.. i paid around $300, i guess it was a good buy..

janusthephoenix 24 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 My 7.62 was $400 initially, which after Kali fees and crap worked up to roughly $480. I'm glad I didn't wait until I relocated; that was like 4 months ago I bought it and I'm still here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bvamp 604 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Rumor has it a new shipment is expected right after Shot Show....... this should bring the supply back up. Not a rumor. Actually they havent stopped coming in the country, its just such a popular item right now, that it is impossible for dealers and even distributors to keep them in stock for very long, if at all. Backorders are filled, and nothing is left to announce for sale! The guns are flowing profusely into the country right now, and you should see them be more visibly available in the coming weeks. Poor Clyde and family cant even take a vacation down here in FL after the Shotshow, because of the sheer numbers of guns on the way, that have to go out. They only have so much room in the warehouse, although it is pretty sizeable. When I see everyone next weekend, I will ask exactly what precisely, for information, is ready for release to the public, and relay it to you all immediately, as I have been doing for the past several years. There are a few items of interest, that I am expecting should be ready for release to the public at that time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
