I've been looking for a 15-22 for about a month now. Calling local gun shops every few days and just trying to find out when someone might get a shipment in. Today i finally found one at my local gun shop. They actually had quite a few of them i believe. I Bought one and i saw at least 5 more being purchased while i was waiting in the store.
I got it for a bargain price of $429.99 which made me pretty happy considering it was listed as $499.99 regular price and also any gun thats "black and scary" is usually overpriced these days.
I got the model with the threaded barrel which made it even a better deal to me.
I also had some luck by getting my hands on two 525 packs of Blazer Ammo. paid about 25 bucks a pack which i couldn't pass up.
