Guns & Ammo Sales.

[Ohiosam]

I have a cousin in Arizona that works in the largest gun store in the south west. Back when the quarantines started he told me one day they had people lined up out the door. Almost everyone was a first time buyer. Most came to the counter and said “I want buy a gun” they didn’t care what gun, any gun. Pump shotguns went 1st. At the end of the day about all they had left were high end O/Us

Also, guy at work said vances had plenty. I’ve never been in one of those.

A week or so ago there was an hour wait to just get into Vance's in Obetz. This was because of the covid nonsense and demand. They said they had some stock, but they just couldn't get it out onto the floor fast enough. So people were coming in to shop and everything was in the back waiting to be put out.

He’s such A little bitch

That's the kind of statistic I don't mind being a part of.

I do believe that its gonna end up being an across the board thing. Shortages and back orders everywhere. You cant tell everyone to stay home from work and expect life to just continue.

It's getting close to time of paying the piper for the lockdown.

Both are nearing 52-week highs.

Are gun and ammo prices rising with demand?

 

[bowhunter1023]

Not locally. Yet.

Interesting. If demand is that sharp why not raise pricing. Guess that’s the business man in me.

But yet Remington is filing for bankruptcy because of

Are gun and ammo prices rising with demand?

Remaining ammo that is in stock online has risen sharply. Most that is still in stock is high-end personal defense ammo and traditionally cheap russian ammo that has been marked up 30%+. Parts, guns, etc are just flat sold out pretty much everywhere.

Don’t expect it to get better any time soon. At this point Trump‘s re-election is in jeopardy, people will stock pile worrying about a democrat president.

In spite of the statistics that predict he will not win (like they predicted the first time around and were wrong), I think he'll be re-elected. With either outcome there's a good argument to be made for more guns & ammo, though.

Bridgeport is limiting 9mm to 200 rounds per purchase. I'm there multiple times a week and am headed there right now to become a July statistic. I'm ready for a 1,000 yard gun.

Vista handles federal premium ammunition...


Vista, smith and wesson, and ruger hit 52 week highs today. Smith a d vista have been setting new highs for a couple weeks now.

I bought smith and wesson at $12 a share... wish I'd have bought more

30% increase, at least. The few rare instances I've seen 1000-round cases of .223 online, they've been priced at around 400-bucks. The last time I bought a case I think I paid 280.
