Any of you guys see similar scenarios where you live?
Yes. every place is bloody full of bloody idiots, many buying up shit simply because its taboo, or some shit. They all seem to only want para-military stuff.

Some goon was buying a WARS-Whatever it is, the polish AK, for $1300.00!!

Highway robbery Fer fuck sake!

I have to go pick up a gun from a gun smith today and I'm curious what the store looks like now if it was almost empty two days ago. I'll take a photo.

Brownells had 10packs of Magpul 30rounders for $120, don't know if they sold out already though.

Called 4 stores... all 4 basically told me that calling in does no good as their inventory is flipping over so quickly.

The store in my photo just ordered a million dollars of inventory and another store down the street did $300k in sales over the weekend.

Anyway, the jist of it is me working in a large gunstore/range in the midwest over the past week. It's been madness. Pmags, glock mags, AR's, AR components and ammo is being bought up like nothing. We sold close to 1,600 Pmags in just over 4 days. Our AR's were gone in just the same amount of time. We carried about 15 different AR manufacturers too.

There's a lot more I had to say but minor writing everything over again. I'm just glad I started stocking up heavy during this past summer
haha damn that's madness... and me too

I'm sure it's just a mixture of Christmas and panic of the times. No doubt several people changed their Christmas list when CT shooting happened. As long as it doesn't drive up gun sales I won't have to buy them off the black market
